Veeranadai (transl. Courageous walk) is a 2000 Indian Tamil-language action drama film written and directed by Seeman. The film stars Sathyaraj, Arun Pandian, Khushbu and debutante Uma. It was released on 28 April 2000.[1]
The story revolves around two village bigwigs, Periya Karuppan and Kottaisamy. Periya Karuppan, a kindhearted person, is very helpful to his villagers, while Kottaisamy is always jealous of Periya Karuppan and his father.
Periya Karuppan is very affectionate towards his sister, and he gives her in marriage to a young man. After giving birth to a beautiful girl, the couple gets killed in an accident. Periya Karuppan brings up the girl Poomayil and vows not to marry as he has to look after his niece. This disappoints Mallika, who wants to marry Periya Karuppan.
When Poomayil attains marriageable age, a young man is chosen to marry her. Before the day of betrothal she asks her grandfather why her uncle never got married, and the old man replies that he has remained a bachelor only to bring her up. This touches her, and she announces at the betrothal function that she intends to marry only her uncle, who has sacrificed a lot for her sake.
