Visu and Karthik make a fine pair . All their movies are for family audience . This movie is shot in lush locales of Kaveri river . The greenery is soothing to the eyes , so is the small palace of the back ground . Here , Karthik is the son of a loyal servant of the local king in Roja Theevu a small township near Srirangam. Upon hearing about the arrival of his childhood friend the princess from London he rushes to see her but realises soon-that she is some imposter.
The story slowly unfurls that the princesse's uncle has imprisoned the king ( Delhi Ganesh ) and the queen ( Pandari Bai ) while their daughter , the actual princess Sulakshana is studying in London .
He has brought some one else in her place to grab her entire property.
When he realises that Karthik has become aware of this , he gets Karthik and his father killed. .Karthik some how escapes and from here starts the hunt for the real princess . A few songs with fisher women in picturesque locales of palm trees and river banks later he meets Sulakshana and her inspector friend Visu.
Sulakshana is OK as the London returned educated princess . Visu plays two roles one of the inspector helping her to find her parents and one of the publisher.
Visu and his wife Manorama are publishers in search of this story upon getting some lead . They run a paper called Pappa and both dress up as children in school uniforms . Their pranks are silly but bring a smile . A lot of confusions, twists , misunderstandings , impersonations later , all becomes well.
The story moves from Srirangam to this small island town . Shot in fine locations with nice songs , it makes for a family viewing . Vadivukarasi has a small role as a haggard wife of the villain . Sulakshana though short in height emotes and dances well. Karthik of course is a delight to watch as a demure loyal servant or a prankster . Over all a simple fine movie with a nice story .
