Plot summary

Pasupathy is out of work and about to lose the house he shares with his younger sister Kavitha and the house maid Senthamarai, so his uncle, a lawyer who has looked after them since their parents died, applies for a marketing post at a friend's mineral water company. The owner, Sivagurunathan, dislikes recommendations and worships Murugan, so Pasupathy arrives dressed as a Gandhian, claims to follow the principles in Sivagurunathan's own book, and is hired. He tells his boss his mother has been injured and skips work for a cricket match, where Sivagurunathan films him. Facing dismissal, Pasupathy claims the man in the video was his identical twin, the karate master Ganguly Kandhan.
