Idli Kadai posters so far had confused the audience about what exactly. What was first considered a feel-good rural drama, was then confused after Arun Vijay's poster as boxer was released. The constant back and forth of rural and urban posters, gave mixed signals to fans in cracking the film's plot. With the trailer out now, let's do a breakdown on what the story of Idli Kadai might be.

From the trailer, it is clear that Dhanush has once again successfully been able to shift back and forth as youngster and grown man. In his earlier days, we see him at the humble abode of his parents (Rajkiran and Geetha Kailasam) as they want to upgrade to grinder to make idli batter. The next shot is that of a slightly older Dhanush, who is a working professional who has not forgotten his roots. He works for Sathyaraj and Arun Vijay but we see him coming back to his village and doing the basics. That is where we see Nithya Menen as village belle, and Shalini Pandey comes as city bred girl. A shot also gives away that while Dhanush's Murugan is working hard to do all for his parents, Sathyaraj's son (Arun Vijay) leads a care-free life. The two sons collide, and we see how the protagonist does all his best to celebrate his roots.
