Plot
In the heart of an offbeat, masterfully woven romantic drama, Moondram Pirai unfolds the intricate tale of Cheenu (Kamalahasan), a quiet schoolteacher nestled in the hills. His life takes an unexpected twist when he rescues Viji (Sridevi), a woman reduced to a childlike state owing to a tragic car crash that left her mentally impaired. Found trapped in the sordid depths of a brothel, Viji is brought to the serenity of Cheenu's hillside home, where a unique bond begins to flourish.
Cheenu, grappling with his burgeoning romantic feelings and struggling to contain his sexual desires, finds himself immersed in a world that mirrors Viji's blissful innocence. Unaware of her past life, Viji revels in this newfound sanctuary, her devotion to Cheenu intensifying with each passing day. Yet, unbeknownst to them, Viji's father Vedachalam (Veeraraghavan) is frantically searching for his lost daughter, his desperation leading him to publish a newspaper advertisement in hopes of finding her.
As the threads of this tale intertwine, a co-passenger from a train journey from Chennai to Ooty provides Vedachalam with a crucial lead to his daughter's whereabouts. Meanwhile, Cheenu, in his quest to restore Viji's health, seeks an Ayurvedic medical practitioner's assistance. However, their peaceful existence is disrupted when the police, acting on the lead, converge on their location, forcing Cheenu into hiding to avoid potential repercussions.
In the eye of this storm, questions loom large: Will Viji's treatment yield success? Can Cheenu persuade Viji's father and the police of his pure intentions? Moondram Pirai invites you on a riveting journey that delicately explores the boundaries of love, morality, and sacrifice.
