Plot
In 1986, at Poombarai, Kodaikanal, Thyagu is a toddler surrounded by his loving joint family. Thyagu's grandfather encourages him to pursue a literary path as he grewup. Years pass by and Thyagu's paternal uncles, driven by avarice, seek to usurp the entire inheritance, and so stage an accident during a family trip to Rameswaram, claiming the lives of nearly everyone in the van. Thyagu's maternal uncle rescues him and places him in a Chennai mansion, unaware to Thyagu that his cousin, Thamarai, is lying in coma.
Years later, in 1999, a restless Thyagu, now a young adolescent, wandered along the banks of the Ganges in Varanasi. There, a compassionate "Guruji" named Desikar Adigalar rescues him to his mutt.
