The song (literally: "I looked at the sky" ) serves as a thematic bridge. Its lyrics, written by Vairamuthu and sung by S.P. Balasubrahmanyam , express Raja's disillusionment: he has seen the sky and the earth, but is yet to find a "true human" ( manithan ). Key Story Points
The song highlights the irony of human behavior—how people worship idols but treat their fellow humans with cruelty.
Interestingly, this title song was not originally in the script. Rajinikanth was so impressed by the tune and lyrics that he insisted it be added to the film's opening credits.
The film follows (Rajinikanth), a man born under the superstitious stigma of a "No Moon Day" ( Amavasya ), which his father believes marks him as a future criminal. After spending years in juvenile detention for a crime committed in self-defense, Raja returns to society only to face constant rejection.
Raja joins a welfare organization to help the needy but is constantly framed by corrupt forces, led by the villainous Kumaravelu (Raghuvaran).
