Baana Kaathadi (Tamil: பாணா காத்தாடி; English: Kite) is a 2010 Tamil romance film written and directed by Badri Venkatesh. Adharvaa, son of Tamil actor Murali, makes his debut in the film as a lead actor, while Prasanna, Samantha Ruth Prabhu, and Karunas also play lead roles, while Murali makes a cameo appearance. Featuring music scored by Yuvan Shankar Raja, cinematography by Richard M. Nathan and editing by Suresh Urs, the film, which was launched in March 2009, released on 6 August 2010. It is the last movie of Murali, who made a special appearance in this movie, before his death in September 2010. This movie was an above average grosser but was an acclaimed film.
One day, in his rush to grab hold of a falling kite, Ramesh(Adharvaa) bumps into Priya (Samantha Ruth Prabhu), a fashion technology student. In the process, her pendrive falls into his pocket, without either of them realising. The pendrive consists of six months' worth of Priya's project work, and she needed to submit it. Asking the principal for an extension, Priya searches for Ramesh, and finally manages to find him. She thoroughly humiliates him, while he denies the pendrive is with him. After college one day, Ramesh and his friends see Priya on the road. They tease her and infuriate her, eventually leading to her slapping him.
A few days later, while Ramesh's mother (Mounika) is washing his pants, she finds the pendrive. Ramesh realizes the fault is his, and immediately goes to return the pendrive. Priya is impressed with his attitude, as she expected him to keep the pendrive because she slapped him. This marks the beginning of their friendship.
