After acting in character roles in innumerable films, and then striking it rich as a hero in 'Kokki', Karan takes on his second film as a hero. And it is to the credit of the actor that he chooses roles suitable to him. As in 'Kokki', here too it's the role of a simple-minded youth minding his business and retaliating when he is pushed to the wall. Except for a couple of scenes, there is no attempt made to play up the larger-than-life element of a hero. And that works well for the actor.
Karan plays impressively Karuppasamy aka Xerox, who runs a dance-mimic troupe, apart from getting a contract to manage a parking lot for two-wheelers. Karuppasamy's ability to mimic top actors had earned him the nickname of Xerox. I's at the parking lot that he encounters Rasathi, a medical student.
The motherless Rasathi's looking up to him as an emotional anchor, and her dependence on him; her yearning to continue her studies and become a doctor despite some family opposition; and his unflinching support to her even putting his life at risk; and her family's antagonism towards him, all form part of the plot.
