When they land up in Tirunelveli, a rich man Chelladurai (S. Theodore Baskaran) decides to support the family, for his young grandson Jothi (Jai) loves the art and their family. Thamizharasi (Nandhagi), Siva Rao's granddaughter, is enrolled in a local school, who grows up and works hard to pass out in flying colors in her higher secondary.

Even as she gets admission in an engineering college in Pune, Jothi and Thamizharasi develop affinity for each other. Unable to leave her, Jothi rapes her, which changes her life. As a result, Jothi is forced to leave the village by his grandfather, to live with his dad. Jothi returns after a couple of years to see Thamizharasi nowhere.

Reception



'Hindustan Times' wrote "Kathiravans effort must be lauded because he is still one of the few helmers in cinema bold enough to take his camera to the countryside and capture the dying wails of Indias glorious heritage". 'Behindwoods' wrote "The poetically shot APT unfolds leisurely, at the pace of a slow moving train and you often tend to feel like an unaccompanied passenger in a mid-afternoon train".https://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-movie-reviews/reviews-2/aval-peyar-tamilarasi-jai.html 'Sify' wrote "Well-intentioned in his attempts to make good cinema, Meera Kathiravan and producers Moserbaer and Blue Ocean deserve a pat on their backs for crafting a movie that will stay in your hearts . It is a welcome change from the usual mass masalas and need to be seen in that perceptive".
