'University' Jeevan

An NRI from Canada travels to Chennai to start a property business. As his company starts doing well, he realizes he is he being cheated by his most trusted people, and gets imprisoned for fraud. What happens next?

Thotta`` is about the transformation of a straightforward honest young man into a menace. The young boy (Jeevan) comes to Chennai with his mother to search for his father, only to find him leading a happy life with another woman. Expelled from the family`s home, the boy loses his mother in the brawl. He comes across a kind auto driver (Chandrasekar), who helps him perform the last rites for his mother.

Vicky (Jeevan) is the eldest son of a Railway officer, is a perpetual loser in whatever he does and is looked down by other family members. One day he meets Shivani (Kamna Jethmalani), daughter of a rich textile tycoon, who has brought all the luck to her father, with her Midas touch! Soon the 'unlucky' Vicky is drawn towards the 'lucky' Shivani and they fall madly in love! Due to circumstances, they are forced to elope, with Shivani's cop brother in hot pursuit. The lovers decide to go to Shivani's father's village in Theni, where he is considered and treated as "Mr Nice Guy", a philanthropist and savior of the locals, and is given the honour of conducting the temple Thiruvizha, every year. How the runaway couple against all odds rips his good guy image and exposes him in front of the entire village, forms the rest of this predictable yarn.
