), but Sathish, who is a rowdy, walks out with haste. Thamarai then starts to narrate how Rita (

) moved to their apartment, where she mingles with the neighbors Kajal (Masoom Shankar), Paru (Shree Gopika), Suganya (Monisha Ram), and Thamarai. One day, Rita notices Thamarai crying and gets to know that it is her birthday and that her husband is not even aware of it. She decides to throw a party on the terrace, where they all drink beer and open up about their personal lives. They go to Tasmac, where Sathish comes and picks them up. Later, Thamarai and Sathish cozy up and have sex, but he warns her to never meet her drunkard friends. Eventually, after sometime, they all meet in Rita's house as Suganya asks for a party where she goes mad, but she reveals that her lover Chris is getting married at Pondicherry. They all go there, kidnap the couple, and bring them to Suganya — she runs and hugs the bride, leaving everyone in shock. They end up at a police station, where they are sent off with a warning. Rita's boyfriend and Sathish have a small scuffle. Later, Rita's boyfriend Venky (

) agrees for marriage, which she declines, and they break up. They all meet up with Suganya and her partner, where they decide to switch from drinks to cannabis. They seek the help of youths to get weed, but they are chased by cops. They end up in a crossfire between Sathish and his rival gang, but he saves them. Kajal then says that her husband has an affair. They all go there and ridicule him, and Paru says that she has not consummated her marriage. She confronts her husband, and he tells her that he was in love with another girl and was forced into marriage, so they decide to divorce. Finally, Thamarai cries out and seeks her friends' help to free Sathish from his bald boss. They all go to his hideout, fight the henchmen, and hold the boss at gunpoint, while Sathish comes to save him. Later, they are all partying (again), where a guy (Simbu) says to his lover that he does not believe in marriage; he is not anyone's property, and they break up. They all watch him and suggest that he is more like Rita. She walks to him and gives him a lip lock.
