Suyamvaram is a 1999 Tamil-language comedy-drama film starring an ensemble cast from actors in the Tamil film industry and shot by a large technical team from the industry. The film was planned by Giridharilal Nagpal and brought together 14 major directors, 19 cinematographers and over thirty leading actors in the Tamil film industry.
The film also holds the Guinness World Record for casting the most stars in a film and also for being the quickest ever feature-length film made, with filming being completed in 23 hours and 58 minutes. The film released on 16 July 1999, to positive reviews from critics, praising the intentions of the makers.
Kuselan (Vijayakumar) and Suseela (Manjula) have 9 children: 3 boys (Arunachalam (Sathyaraj), Aavudaiappan (Prabhu Ganesan) and Indiran (Abbas)) and 6 girls (Urvashi (Rambha), Easwari (Roja), Uma (Kasthuri), Aishwarya (Maheswari), Hema (Preetha Vijaykumar) and Ezhilarasi (Suvalakshmi)). Azhagappan (Parthiban) is the family's loyal servant but he is treated as one of their own, while Krishna (Napoleon) is the family doctor.
The movie opens with Kuselan's 60th birthday celebrations, and he gets a heart attack. At the hospital, the family is informed that Kuselan will not live long and to keep him comfortable in his last days. From the devastated family, Kuselan asks for one last favour: that all his children get married before he dies. The children all agree and a statewide ad is put out saying that those chosen to marry Kuselan's children would get a piece of the family properties and 1 crore in cash. Needless to say, the mention of wealth brings in potential brides and grooms by the truck full to be interviewed by either Gnanapithan (K. Bhagyaraj) and Arivozhi (Oorvasi) or the two doctors Mithrabuthan (Janagaraj) and Panchabutham (Senthil).
