The film begins with a dynamic youth, Ravi, returning to his hometown. During the train journey, he is ecstatic and narrates his past to passengers. Ravi led a splendid lifestyle in college and is fascinated by everyone because of his fabulous singing. He is the son of a middle-class lecturer, Satyam, who takes a bus and many boards to hear his song daily. Chaaya, his fellow collegian daughter of a tycoon, Gupta, gets wise of Ravi's knack. So, she climbs the bus in a burka as Gupta shows hostility to pennilessness. Anyhow, Ravi detects and finds her whereabouts with his wit and two crushes brainily by a code language. After a few comic scenes, Gupta is conscious of the ongoing impedes and threatens Satyam by contracting a status barrier between turtle doves. Plus, he transits Chaaya to Madras. Besides, Satyam forewarns Ravi to back off his love, which he doesn't bear in mind.

Moreover, he proceeds to Madras via his patrons, and two flies persist in their love. Thus, Gupta infuriates and apprehends Ravi with his influence. Satyam acquits him when a heated row passes that ends with Ravi quitting the house, and his friends are the only ones who care about him. Presently, Gupta seizes and fixes to send Chaaya foreign. Being aware of this, Ravi conducts an agitation for love with students as a pillar, which ensues chaos. At long last, Gupta steps forward, bowing before the holy love. He also stipulates that he will knit them when Ravi can attain something. As of today, Ravi is returning after triumphing as a scholar. At last, Chaaya & his friends warmly welcome him at the station. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the marriage of Ravi & Chaaya.
