In the bustling textile hub of Palladam, Arul Selvakumar commands a thriving empire that was built on his mother’s relentless determination. Bhuvaneshwari, the matriarch whose sacrifices have become the family’s backbone, now faces a silent, desperate battle that threatens to unravel everything Arul has worked for. The film opens with a palpable tension between wealth and vulnerability, painting a portrait of a son caught between the comforts of his privileged world and an aching need to save the woman who gave him life.

When a mystic at a hospital whispers an ancient possibility, Arul is thrust onto a path that defies his polished existence: to wander the streets as a beggar for forty‑eight days, hidden from all who know his name. This radical plunge into the underbelly of Chennai introduces him to a community that lives on the margins, their rhythms starkly contrasting the glossy boardrooms he’s accustomed to. The tone balances somber introspection with moments of quiet humor, inviting the audience to wonder how a man of steel will adapt when stripped of his status, while still guarding his secret.

Amidst this self‑imposed exile, Arul encounters Magizhini, a compassionate soul whose generosity hints at a world where kindness persists beyond socioeconomic walls. His steadfast friend Rajesh offers a steady anchor back to the life he left behind, while the looming presence of Avinashi, his uncle‑in‑law, adds an undercurrent of familial pressure. The narrative swirls with themes of sacrifice, identity, and the paradoxical strength found in humility, leaving viewers eager to see whether the simple act of begging can become the bridge to a mother’s healing.
