Plot
Sridhar(Ajith) has been trying hard to become a music director for eight years. Inspite of having earned an M.A, his only dream is to become a music director(he even calls the eight-year wait a "penance"). His family, consisting of his father(K.Vishwanath), his brother Shiva(Raghuvaran), his sister-in-law Shantha(Sitara) and his sister, is fully supportive of him. He runs into Viji(Jyothika) and their friendship soon blossoms into love. She helps him get a foot in the door in the industry but bad luck spoils that chance too. When Viji's sister's marriage is finalised suddenly, Viji's father(Jaiganesh) asks her to get married too. But he is understandably worried when he learns that Sridhar is unemployed and following a dream that has not been realised for 8 years. Back in Sridhar's home, Shiva suffers a heart attack.
