The remake of a Kannada film with the same title, College Kumar has the issues which most of the remake versions suffer. The project, which has been made simultaneously in Tollywood as well, looks like a Telugu film in many scenes, thanks to the location and artistes who play the minor supporting roles.

Thirumurugan (Prabhu), who works as a peon, wants to make his son an auditor because his employer, an arrogant auditor, insults him. As time passes by, his son, Siva Kumar (Rahul) disappoints him by not being a bright student at college. Thiru's wife Janaki (Madhoo), too, is upset over the same. He loses his cool when Kumar is terminated from college for indulging in a malpractice. An infuriated Kumar vents out his frustration to his father and challenges him to join college and earn a degree. How Thiru takes up the challenge forms the rest of the story.

The plot sounds okayish on paper, but the execution falters mainly due to nativity factor. All the artistes except the major actors aren't Tamil and it appears like a dubbing flick. The lip-sync, however, is flawless in most of the scenes. The production value is another positive aspect of the film apart from Prabhu's performance as a dutiful father. The lack of impactful emotional scenes, clichéd sequences, absence of nativity and an unappealing screenplay spoil the plot. The lead pair, too, isn't quite impressive.
