Just to unite a pair of lovers, Ganesh (Ram) has to feign love to Divya (Kajal). But to even do that or reach her, he has to come up with a series of dramas and antics to please the numerous kids living in the apartment where Divya too stays. He secures a flat adjacent to Divya’s and works hard at getting her attention. When she really does fall in love, it takes a minute for her to realise that Ganesh has been fooling her and she distances herself from him. The rest of the story is about how Divya plays hard to get and Ganesh tries his best to convince her that he really, indeed has fallen in love.

Director Saravanan uses the children to inject comic situations but he allows the children to dominate the story most of the time and ends up looking like a farce. Imagine kids dressing up like adults and knocking the doors of a neighbour to negotiate or talk about alliances, all you want to do is whack them. Too much kid stuff shows the director’s desperation, the comic premise betrays more of a concern for quick box-office bucks than any desire for comic invention. Also Ashish Vidyarthi’s presence looks pointless, it appears as if he has been created just to show Ganesh’s machoism.

Brahmanandam tearing of his assistant’s clothes to give Ganesh a warning is funny but it lasts less than a minute. If you are wondering why the filmmakers couldn’t find an apt title for the film, don’t get impatient, stay tuned till the Manmohan Desai like climax hits you like a bolt.
