Nee Varuvai Ena

Ganesh, is the only son of Mudaliar-Gounder inter-caste parents in Chennai. He loses several prospective brides due to this and spends his time dreaming of marriage, despite being an Assistant Bank manager in a Govt bank. On a bus ride to Chengalpattu to take up a promotion as a bank manager in Chengalpattu, he gets involved in an accident. The scene shifts to 4 months later when he finally shows up at Vendanthangal. Nandhini, the only daughter of Village president, who lives in the house opposite to his, showers affection on him, gives him coffee, provides him with hot water, etc. Ganesh falls in love with Nandhini and weeks later visits her family with his parents to talk about marriage. However, she rejects the proposal without telling the reason.

Nandhini is met by Ganesh in a hilltop and cornered for the reason behind rejection. She tells him about her ill-fated love affair with army officer Subramani. Subramani and Nandhini's wedding was planned, with their courtship being very sweet. A week before the wedding, Subramani was recalled back to the forces, due to an unknown clerical error. While going to the station, their car meets with a freak accident which results in the deaths of Subramani and his parents, while Nandhini suffers a broken leg. Coincidentally, this was the same accident in which the bus Ganesh was travelling met with. Ganesh lost his vision in the accident, and Subramani's eyes had been donated to Ganesh. Nandhini came to know this in the hospital which made her fall in love with his eyes. This was the reason for her attachment to Ganesh.

Eager to send him on his way, Nandhini sends a letter in Ganesh's name to Ganesh's home, accepting the latest girl whom they picked for him. Ganesh returns home to find arrangements for his wedding in full swing. Coincidentally, the girl turns out to be Subalakshmi, someone he had dreamed of marrying during his pre-Nandini days. However, Ganesh cancels the wedding plans, and his friend marries Subalakshmi. Ganesh returns to Vendanthangal. In the end, it is shown that Ganesh and Nandhini remain good friends without getting married.
