Avinashi tries to take over Arul’s businesses as both Arul and his mother are unavailable now. Magizhini finds out that Arul is a beggar and gets angry thinking Arul has cheated her but still could not avoid him as she is impressed more by his good nature. One day Magizhini’s mother sees Arul’s photo in her laptop and says that he is a rich businessman and also she had sent her photos to him through matrimony website a few months back. Magizhini is shocked hearing this and goes to meet Arul where she overhears the conversation between Arul and Rajesh which makes her realise Arul’s life as a beggar is to save his mother and she is impressed a lot seeing his good nature. Magizhini decides not to disturb Arul until his life as a beggar is complete.
Meanwhile, there is a group of doctors who manage a mental health centre but they use the patients admitted in the hospital for medical experiments and Arul gets to know this with the help of a beggar who stays there pretending as a mentally challenged girl. Knowing this, the doctors approach a gang asking them to murder Arul. Arul manages to escape from the gang.

But Arul is unable to pay the hospital expenses as his last day as a beggar is not yet complete. His beggar friends come up with some money to help Arul. Avinashi is arrested by police.
Arul gets back after 48 days along with Rajesh to visit his mother and comes to know that there is no improvement in her health. Arul holds his mother’s hands and begs to live for long. Suddenly he sees his mother’s hands moving and holding his hand. After six months, his mother is recovered and both Arul and Magizhini get married to each other. A beggar begs to Arul in front of a temple but Arul gets busy with a phone call not noticing the beggar. Arul’s mother gives money to the beggar and informs Arul that life of a beggar is so pathetic and we should never hurt them. She also says that people like us cannot lead a beggar’s lifestyle even a single day. Arul apologises for not noticing the beggar to his mother and the film ends there signalling that Arul’s mother never came to know about her son’s struggle as a beggar to bring her back to normal life.

Review:
excellent thought,nice movie to watch.
the movie script goes in a smooth manner , another hit to Mr.vijayantony.
The movie portrays the changeover in life of a rich businessman to beggar for the sake of his mother.
used the characters effectively good direction by director a unique title and with unique concept want to see the hero and director combination once again the climax scene realise every beggar(nice hearted) has some feelings and their survival for a living ,(IMPORTANT question:: why one should see this movie?////ANS : portrays the feeling of the son in a natural manner who is ready to give up everything for his mother)overall nice to watch.
Good Movie giving good message.
Good movie to watch.
You will feel love between a mother and son.
Also you will know about poor people life.

Nice story and wonderfully screen played for a film.
I rarely come across a beautiful story with a good screen play This film has the commercial as well as the emotional element executed very well by the director Along with some great acting by Vijay Antony and others.
Also those humorous rendition in the film were very well defined to express the social cause.
It's emotion packed humorous thriller film over all, you would not leave any single shot out of it.
People should not miss watching such films, these are the film's which Indian cultural audience would expect and I suppose such films would make a healthy environment.
Family audience would love the film and kids as well not sure about the youths..
simply but with best contain.
This movie among one those wonderful movie that i have seen in my life.
i love so much this movie and beggar life of actor is so thrilling,entertaining and thoughtful..
Nice movie with quite different love story.
In this movie each an every person playing role in way that conclude the heart touching movie..
Pichaikkaran (2016).
It has a good story.
Vijay Antony mass in acting.
The sentiment scenes are very touching.
The songs were very good..
good movie.
good movie.
No words actually the concept was New and Vijay Antony's performance was remarkable!The scenes going through the Movie are basically in relation that how Our Indian people respect their values.
one of the best heart touching piece is where Vijay gets the alms of his girlfriend.
Really tears were down the line in this scene.
Hats off to Vijay sir for opting this sort of stories & shashi sir who were part, sorry the main- who directed the movie so beautifully.
really Amazing one from shashi sir.Hope more & more movies of this sort come up & entertain all of the people out there.wish the Team crew of'Bichagadu' a very good future & success..
deep truth !!.
Nice..Its not just a movie but the present condition of India..
Humans give more respect for money.on watching , understand something that they don't give respect for them but the money they have ..
Yes its so hard to beg ..
the reason for 8/10 is because of imaging begging as something right ..
And also you people will notice a accident involving a man with Audi car scolding a pizza delivery girl for damaging his car ..
Its not just act but the truth behind more then 70 % of rich people in India ..As it goes like that they will teach their son/daughter how to be rich in look(indicating money) and speech(indicating money) so they grow with out knowing ,how to behave and the value of life ..soon corruption take control of their brain ..In ultimate these are the reasons why there's more black money...
