Synopsis

edit

The film begins on a college campus and ends there as well, with the final scene depicting Sunil’s last days at college. So, there are no mundane classroom settings or typical heroics. The plot shifts to focus on Sunil's love life, introducing the heroine, Ashita. Serious about his career, Sunil starts job hunting, avoiding the usual romantic clichés of love songs in parks and pubs. He secures a job under a misandrist (man-hater) named Ramya (played by Ramya Krishna), who introduces the film's villain. However, the identity of the villain remains unclear until the interval. As the story progresses, this man-hater begins to develop an interest in Sunil, who is younger than her, adding a layer of romance and glamour. Caught between two women, Sunil ultimately navigates his way out of this complicated situation. The reason behind Ramya’s misandry remains a mystery until the end.
