When Tam Bram boy Ravi and Jewish American girl Deborah fall in love, they decide to come to Chennai to seek Ravi's parents' consent for the marriage. While they don't quite expect a ready acceptance, little do they suspect that they would end up stirring the vitals of the joint family.
Set in the heart of Chennai, this is the delightful story of a father who disowns his son for going against their traditions, of a mother caught between a fuming husband and a US-returned son, of an American girlfriend struggling to get used to being stared at on the streets of Chennai, and of a young man caught in the middle of it all.
