Plot

Balu, Palli, Gold, and Kandhan are small-time crooks in Ooty. They pose as tour guides and proceed to rob tourists. They are aided by the village belle, Mynaa, who gave them money and food. Balu finds the young women Uma in a container lorry. Uma is unfamiliar with the city, so she asks Balu to bring her to the restaurant and the hotel. His three friends then follow them and they are all removed from the restaurant and the hotel by the staff. The five eventually eat at a wedding function and subsequently sleep in the street. Afterwards, Uma seduces each of the four friends individually and promises them that she will marry them. The five spend time together and sleep in the same room. The police are looking for Uma. Uma faints and the doctor informs her that she is pregnant. The four friends pretend to be the father of the baby, but Uma is in denial.

Release and reception

Ji of Kalki wrote Pavithran messed up in script and direction and panned double meaning dialogues and the way Vichitra's character was treated but praised Vaiyapuri's humour and Suvalaxmi's natural acting and concluded saying many of the audience are going towards English films due to these kind of films coming out.[5] The film failed both commercially and critically with the director Pavithran stating, "My only intention was to give the producer some profit. But finally I could satisfy nobody, both the producer and my fans".[6]
