Plot

The "Jameendar" (Nassar) of a village on the foothills of Palani temple is living happily with his wife (Saranya). The couple is liberal and spends all their money on the villagers. Enter Singapetti Singaram (Vivek), a con and a good-for-nothing guy, and his grandmother (Paravai Muniyamma).

Singaram cons the Jameendar and marries his daughter Ponnarasi (Yamini Sharma), whose brother Raghu (Mithun), an IT professional and city slicker, is fiercely opposed to it. Singaram wastes his money in gambling and is defeated by his enemy. His enemy is killed, and Singaram is framed up in a murder case which he did not commit. He is then forced to leave the village. He comes to Chennai and turns a new leaf and overnight becomes a real estate tycoon.

Meanwhile, Raghu, the bad brother, urged by his evil uncle (Livingston), ditches his parents, who are left penniless on the street. When Singaram comes to the village and sees that the family became poor, Raghu comes to know that his uncle cheated his parents, and he gets affected by heart disease. In the hospital, Raghu's mother gave up her life to donate heart transplant to save his son. The film ends with Raghu marrying Thenmozhi.

Critical reception

Behindwoods wrote "All said and done Magane En Marumagane is a family movie and given the huge success of tearjerker sitcoms in primetime television, it stands a chance to exert its pull over women and rural audiences in particular."[5] Sify wrote "Magane En Marumagane, is not a fun movie. It is pure mush and melodrama, and looks like director TP Gajendran has etched the story from the 60?s and 70?s family glycerine tearjerkers".[6] Kollywood Today wrote "Magane En Marumagane is one such film that annoys you badly putting you restless all throughout the film. The very basic presentation of this film itself looks like a village affected with plague as every character on the screen looks like dullards".[7]
