The song is set in a performing arts theatre. Indhrani (Trisha Krishnan) is singing the song in front of audiences along with dancers on the stage. The Muththa Mazhai song starts when Indhrani is performing the song in front of audiences. Throughout the song, the lyrics express how Indrani suffers the absence of Rangaraaya Sakthivel (Kamal Haasan) in her life.[2]
