Plot

Rasu(Santhanam) and Mokkai('Ganja' Karuppu) are youngsters sharing a hostel with a diverse group of people including a professor(Madan Bob), a staunch atheist(Rajesh), a poet and other unemployed, struggling men. Rasu, who works in a pizza parlor, is in love with Mahishasuramardhini(Madhumita) but she barely gives him the time of day while Mokkai, who is unemployed and does whatever job he can find, dreams of marrying his uncle's daughter back in his village. After a particularly bad day, the two vent their frustration at God and are shocked when He(Prakashraj) shows up in their room. Armed with a 'galaxy box' that is the source of his power, God begins to spend time with Rasu and Santhanam, understanding their problems and advising them. But He is in for a shock when, on his last night with them, Rasu and Santhanam steal his 'galaxy box' and use it to improve their lives.Then they use it to bring trouble to themselves. How they get out of their troubles and how the galaxy box is restored back to God forms the rest of the story.

Though this is a fantasy movie, it has good message throughout. At all instances, it highlights the point that God isn't responsible for all the problems we face, rather it lies within ourselves; and blaming God doesn't solve our troubles. Overall, the film gives a different perception of God.
