What happens

Naan Adimai Illai (transl. I am not a slave) is a 1986 Indian Tamil-language romantic drama film produced and directed by Dwarakish. The film stars Rajinikanth and Sridevi. A remake of the Hindi film Pyar Jhukta Nahin (1985), this was the last Tamil film for Sridevi in 1980s who then concentrated on her Bollywood career, though she would later return to Tamil cinema in the 2010s. Naan Adimai Illai was released on 1 March 1986, and became a box office failure. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
