Transcription
Plot
Chinnakkannu (Murali) lives in a village with his maternal uncle Vellaiyan (Nassar). Vellaiyan asks Chinnakkanu to woo Poongodi (Prathyusha), the only daughter of Muthuraja (Napoleon), a rich Zamindar of a nearby village. Chinnakannu succeeds in his attempt to woo Poongodi, but on the day of wedding between Chinnakkannu and Poongodi, Vellaiyan interrupts and takes away Chinnakannu with him cancelling the wedding. A flashback is shown where Muthuraja is widely respected by everyone in his village. One day, he gets drunk and rapes a girl without consciousness. The victim is Vellaiyan's fiancé (Priyanka), who happens to be Chinnakannu's sister. Muthuraja realises his mistake and marries the victim. However, she dies during her delivery, and Poongodi is born to her. Vellaiyan plans to revenge Muthuraja by using Chinnakannu. Finally, after many events, Chinnakannu marries Poongodi.

Reception
Dinakaran wrote, "Director J.Thambi Ramaiya has written the story and screenplay following the cinematic style of his guru director P.Vasu. The grandeur that marks the picturization makes us feel how great the co-operation extended by the producer might have been".[3] Chennai Online wrote "The screenplay is well etched with the right dose of humour, action and sentiment. It is only in the second half that the director gets a bit distracted and includes new characters [..]".[4] The Hindu wrote "Manuneedhi has nothing new to offer. Just the same old plot handled in just about the same old way!".[5] New Straits Times wrote "Catch this movie if you like countryside-based stories".[6] Krishna Chidambaram of Kalki called it just average.[7]
