The whole affair leaves Satish in a state of shock, and he is later hospitalized and gets into a deep coma. Santhosh is a new entrant to the college.

Reception

AllIndianSite.com wrote, "The story seems ridiculous. The director completely failed to convince the viewers", though the critic praised the performances of Vignesh, Reshma and Ajith. Malini Mannath wrote for ''Chennai Online'', "The film ..has been years in the making and the script has undergone changes along the way. Not surprisingly it has a faded look". Malathi Rangarajan of The Hindu wrote, "The storyline is an attempt at being different.
