Bhagyaraj, Vivek, Ashish Vidyarthi and Jaya Prakash Reddy among others. The film received positive reviews from critics and ended up as a commercial success among 2010 Deepavali releases along with Mynaa. The movie was dubbed in Hindi as "Rakhwala No. 1". .
Siva (Dhanush) is a happy-go-lucky young boy in a large family. The head of this family are 3 brothers. One of the brothers is the father of Siva. Siva studies from a hostel away from home. He is always helpful and always comes in when others need him. In one of his obliging acts he helps his cousin Kalpana (Shriya Saran) to elope with her lover against the family's choice. This aggravates the family and they are asked to forget all about him.
On another occasion, he is asked to help a friend in a love marriage. Siva kidnaps Pooja (Genelia D'Souza) on a mistaken identity from the marriage hall. When Pooja is kidnapped, her uncles and their henchmen follow them. Pooja while on the run tells Siva that she wasn’t interested in the wedding and her uncles are forcing her marriage with one of their sons only to seize her properties. When Siva went to kidnap her, she was thinking of how to run away from this marriage. While escaping from Pooja's uncles, Siva brings Pooja to his house under a false identity. Soon, Siva falls in love with Pooja and determines to marry her only with the consent of all the members of both families. When Siva's family along with Pooja visit a temple, her uncle kidnaps her and locks her away in his house.
