The film aims to map several emotions by introducing us to the experiences of its protagonist Poomukhil. The story opens with the endlessness of nature as the solitary figure of a woman is located against it. Magizhini is a travel photographer who reveals that barely a year ago, her life was far from this.
The film thus begins a flashback. Poomukhil enters the plot and lays down his own journey of a tragic accident which left him with fifteen months in a coma, and temporary memory loss. As he comes out of it, trying to find his bearings once again in life, his path crosses with an unexpected character. This character is no other than Magizhini who finds her way next to Poomukhil. However, in this circumstance Magizhini is blind.
The subsequent story becomes a sincere and heartfelt exploration of passion, love for one’s art, the role of fate as well as self-doubt and fear of uncertainty. Though the control of visuals sometimes loosens, the overall end result remains a complete product with balanced components, further supported by a background score, which ties the entire plot and screenplay together to present it to the audience.
