The story revolves around Siva (Dhanush), a lazy guy who is not interested in any work and loves to spend time with his friends. Due to his carefree attitude, his father Chinnathambi (Bhagyaraj) decides to get him married to a responsible girl. Meanwhile, Pooja (Genelia D'Souza), a hardworking young woman who works as a nurse, falls in love with Siva. However, due to his laziness, Siva initially rejects her proposal.
One day, Siva receives a letter from his father, who is in America, stating that he will be arriving in India soon to meet his son's wife. With no choice left, Siva decides to go to Pooja's house and request her to act as his wife in front of his father until he leaves India.
