Sathyaraj gets an opportunity to compose
music for a small time film. When he seeks
permission from Sathyaraj to go ahead with
his first venture as a music director,
Sathyaraj doesn't oppose the idea as he
wouldn't have imagined even in his wildest
dream that one day SJ Surya would surpass
him in the musical world.
When Surya uses new techniques with the
help of computer and softwares, his music
gets the attention of all music lovers. Due to
the freshness and modernity his music
possesses, he gradually becomes the most
sought after musician and finally overtakes

gold, Sathyaraj displays his true colors. To
get his glory back, Sathyaraj does whatever it
takes to label SJ Surya unfit to compose
music. Can SJ Surya bounce back despite his
new and unwanted status forms the rest of
