Plot

Pandiarajan and Urvashi have no children even after being married for a long time, the doctor informs Pandiarajan that his wife cannot bear children. Not willing to hurt his wife's feelings, he takes the blame on himself. His father (R. Sundarrajan) pesters him to get married for second time just to bear a child. While on a business tour to Nepal, he marries a Nepali girl (Vinaya) under some unavoidable circumstances. When he learns that she is carrying his child, Pandiarajan arranges for her stay at his friend's house. Vinaya delivers a boy and Pandiarajan adopts him with his wife's consent who is not aware of the truth. Unable to suppress her urge to be near her child, the Nepali girl comes as a cook to her husband's house. Pandiarajan's father learns the truth and tells his son to accept Vinaya and make a clean of things to Urvashi. But Pandiarajan who is apprehensive of his wife's reaction begs his father to keep the whole affair under wraps. The story takes a turn to climax when Urvashi, not happy with the goings on in the kitchen, tries to get Vinaya married off to someone else. The movie ends on a happy note when Urvashi comes to a compromise and the two wives live happily with one husband.

Reception

The Hindu wrote, "A hilarious comedy of an affluent businessman caught between two women, one a legal wife without a child and the other, a Nepali girl who bears him a son, and the efforts of the husband to get the boy into the family, lead to many ticklish moments which are competently handled by director S. Murugesh in Anandhi Cine Arts' `Thaikulamae Thaikulamae'. The story and screenplay are by K. Bhagyaraj with `Crazy' Mohan penning the dialogue, which sparks in fits and starts."[5]
