Santhanam plays a drifter from a vanished tribal community who speaks many languages and has been nicknamed Google because he helps anyone who asks. When a bunch of young people mixed up in a kidnapping turn to him, he is pulled into a chaotic chase involving gangsters and a rich family. Director Rathna Kumar, who had made Meyaadha Maan and Aadai, plays it as an offbeat dark comedy, with quirky characters and observations on identity, language and belonging beneath the jokes. It was a change of pace for Santhanam, who plays the role in a more subdued register than his usual rapid-fire comedy. Music is by Santhosh Narayanan.
