Kannan falls for Gayatri (Simran), whose father Vengudu (Vijayakumar) had been a prominent music critic but after a disastrous incident, has given up the job and is now just a pale shadow of his old self. After a mutual decision of marrying only with their parents' consent, Gayatri moves into Rudramurthy's neighbour's house while Kannan tries to attach himself to Gayatri's family.
