Plot

Set in a college campus, the film explored many of the cliches typical of the genre but newcomer Murali made the experience memorable with his work. Be it romancing Kuyili with Ilaiyaraja's chartbuster Athadi Paavadai Kathada, or going on an emotional roller-coaster, or even beating up his father's evil henchmen, Murali proved that he has what it took to be an actor in mainstream Tamil cinema.

Cast

gollark: Though not for floats, I think.
gollark: Indeed.
gollark: Nope. If you just sum it, it *never* generates any of the numbers.
gollark: Interestingly, `range` has an optimized `sum` thing on it, so it won't ever actually have to compute all the values.
