Rasaiya is brought up as an innocent man who suffers torture in the hands of his cruel uncle Rathnavel to get hold of his property for which Rasaiya is considered as legal heir. He falls in love with Jothi; however, Rathnavel sets his henchman to molest and kill her. Sathya, who joins the village as a village administrative officer, turns out to be Jothi's sister who has arrived to avenge her sister's death. With the help of Rasaiya's friends, she transforms Rasaiya into a normal and strong person. In the end, Rasaiya kills Rathnavel and his henchmen and becomes a new heir to the palace.
The music was composed by Ilaiyaraaja, with lyrics written by Vaali.[4][5] The song "Onappu Thattu" is based on Mayamalavagowla raga.[6]

MM of The Indian Express criticised Karthik's performance, stating "he is plainly out of elements" while also panning his dialogue delivery, and said that Raj Kapoor's "script and treatment don't help either".[7] R. P. R. and Thulasi of Kalki in their review panned Karthik's dialogue delivery, flashbacks felt only two songs from Ilaiyaraaja's music are listenable and Goundamani and Senthil's comedy suffers from drought and concluded if only the screenplay was a little more relaxed, all the flies in town would be in the theatre.[8]
