此电影翻拍自北印度2009年的由阿米尔汗主演的火爆全球，正在中国上映的《3 Idiots》。 　　电影以两个好朋友Venkatramakrishnan，Sevalkodi Senthil在寻找多年不见的老朋友Panchavan Parivendan aka Pari的过程中展开回忆。Srivatsan是该部影片的反派角色，虚伪，功利，心眼不好。电影通过断断续续的倒序画面向我们讲述了Pari的故事。Pari是名聪明而又不拘小节的学生，他不随波逐流，特立独行，以自己的魅力成功影响了他的两个好朋友，帮助他们找到了自我，学会去追逐自己的心，抱着笑面吟诵Pari的名言“一切皆好（all is well）”的心态面对生活。Pari敢于对教育体制说不，经常打破陈规，与校长Virumandi Santhanam教授的名言“生活就是场比赛，加油去跑（Life is a rce-Run Run Run）对着干。最终他赢得了Virumandi女儿Riya的芳心。该影片通过回忆讲述了Pari传奇的一生。

The plot of the film illustrates the embankment of two friends on a quest for a lost buddy, who was once an optimistic and successful student. On their journey, they recount their college life and special moments that the three shared up until their lost friend secretly parted ways after convocation. During their quest, the two encounter a rival classmate who once made a long forgotten bet with them, a funeral that goes impossibly out of control, and a wedding they must crash.
