Storyline
Two stepsisters have different personalities: one is proud, the other gentle. A writer receives anonymous love letters and mistakenly believes the proud sister is his secret admirer, so they fall in love and plan to marry. On the wedding day, she runs away to become an actress, and the heartbroken writer marries the gentle sister instead, until the first sister returns and complicates their lives.
“A mistaken identity leads to tangled hearts and unexpected choices.”

- This was one of the few films where actor Murali played a dual role, portraying both the writer Sakthi and a lookalike character later in the story.
- Actress Roja, who played Ramya, was primarily known for her work in Telugu cinema and this was one of her rare leading roles in Tamil during that period.
- The movie's soundtrack by composer Sirpy became popular, with the song 'Kadhal Vandhuchu' remaining a notable romantic track from the late 90s.
- Director N. Rathnam was better known as a successful producer, and this film was one of his few directorial ventures in Tamil cinema.
