Aayiram Porkaasukal

Animuthu is a lazy, jobless 52-year-old man living in Kuruvadipatti near Thanjavur. He only cooks, sleeps, and eats. He has a beggar called Arivazhagan living outside his house that he also feeds. His sister, Senthamarai, and his nephew, Thamil, visit his home. Senthamarai makes Thamil stay at Animuthu's house. After Thamil secretly drinks his alcohol without Animuthu's permission, Animuthu calls his sister. So Thamil threatens Animuthu if his mother is ever to return. A girl, Poongothai, who has a shop in the town, falls in love with Thamil after Thamil goes to the shop to buy cigarettes. After Poongothai's friend, Aarayi lies that Thamil and Poongothai were together hugging and kissing each other, Poongothai's mother visits Animuthu and Animuthu's neighbour, Govindan, and shouts at them, and tells them not to visit their shop ever. After the government announces a plan to clean up the waste in the village, each person in the town will build a toilet and submit a photo of the restroom at the panchayat office to get the relief of Rs. 12000. Govindan builds a toilet next to his home. Animuthu does not construct a toilet, decides to cheat by taking a photo next to Govindan's toilet and gets the relief fund of Rs. 12000. Animuthu spends the entire money on rice, fish, egg, soup and meat. Govindan informs the panchayat president that Animuthu smartly cheated him.
