Akbar is a successful filmmaker who chooses the next topic of his film to be Malavika, an eminent yesteryear actress, whose present whereabouts are unknown. The film is a tribute to the yesteryear actresses who had been graceful, popular figures in cinema during their younger age with patronage and later got completely disregarded by the industry, media and the masses alike. Inspired from the life of many actresses but especially from the romantic link up of the late actress Srividya with actor Kamal Haasan.
