Plot
editAadhi (Vaibhav) is a civil engineer who lives a happy life with his cute family, consisting of his parents (Ilavarasu and Sriranjani). His biggest worry is his nyctalopia, as he cannot see anything after 6PM, so his marriage also becomes a big question mark.
For his own safety, Aadhi makes sure to get back to home before 6PM, but that is not the case on that day as his bike causes trouble near the beach, so he asks his close friend (Sathish) for help. In the meantime, the beach gets filled with protestors who revolt against a powerful politician and ex-goon (R. N. R. Manohar).
Unfortunately, the media, especially reporter Krithika (Palak Lalwani) mistakes Aadhi as the leader of the group which earns the wrath of the politician. On the personal front, Krithika falls in love with Aadhi. The rest of the film is all about how Aadhi manages to hide his flaws and marry Krithika, while also taking care of the criminal-turned politician.
