It was a situation-comedy (sitcom) serial in which Chandru and Geetha enacted the role of a husband and wife. Their friendship blossomed into love and later they walked down the matrimony aisle even in real life on 9 November 1990. Their success in the serial gave Chandru the name "Sihi Kahi Chandru" and Geetha the name "Sihi Kahi Geetha".
