## Plot

[edit]

Kuberan (Karthik) works as a tour guide in Kodaikanal and is the sole money-earner for a large family. The family consists of his good-for-nothing father (Manivannan), the latter's two wives and their children, and Kuberan's sister (Anju) and her unemployed husband (Thyagu). Kavitha (Kausalya), a singer, becomes a new addition to the house when she is cheated off her money by Kuberan's father. Romance blooms between her and Kuberan, and Chandra (Mantra), who also harbors feelings for him, opts out. Kuberan and Kavitha are married, and she too takes part in the sacrifices that he commits for his family.

## Release and reception

[edit]

Krishna Chidambaram of Kalki wrote a story means a knot must be tied and then it must be untied. This is the basic grammar of a story. No one should say that Rama Narayan, who has directed hundreds of films, does not even know this, so ten minutes before the end of the film, he ties a knot and unties in the same speed.[2] India Info wrote, "Director Ramanarayanan, who has earlier dished out a few low budget comedy films catering to the frontbenchers, fails to raise his latest film Kuberan to even that standard. The film has a lopsided storyline with a comedy that falls flat. As for the cast, both Karthik and Kaushalya are wasted, while Manthra, as the oomph girl, manages to fare better than the others".[3] After the film's release, Manthra held a press conference to call out Rama Narayanan for giving her false promises about the length of her role.[4]
