Synopsis
Pon Ondru Kanden
The story is about two friends, Shiva and Sai, who are invited to a reunion but don’t like each other. When they were kids, they both liked a girl named Thiripurasunthari. Shiva had older sisters. Sai’s mother was the headmaster of their school. To impress Thiripurasunthari, Shiva got her a rose and some sweets, while Sai bought fireworks and lots of roses. Shiva gave his gift first and got a kiss from her. Sai found out and got very angry, leading to a big fight. It turned out that Thiripurasunthari had kissed Sai earlier that morning too.
