Though the film primarily rests on the shoulders of these two characters, it still makes you fall in love with the other people in their world. Murugesan and Kousalya also have a common dream - to see India lift the World Cup once again in cricket. Many such beautifully-written parallels make Kanaa rise above the usual, and shine throughout. While Murugesan longs to step into the marshy land with his plough, Kousalya desires with all her heart to set foot on the green grass of the stadium sporting an Indian jersey. And interestingly, their major struggle is not to prove themselves in their respective arena, but to get into one in the first place. They are both hardworking, stubborn and extremely proud of their profession. While the former fights against poverty and drought to safeguard his identity as a farmer, the latter battles against sexism and regional politics to be identified as a cricketer. Kanaa is essentially Murugesan (Sathyaraj) and his daughter Kousalya's (Aishwarya Rajesh) quest for identity.
