Amuba, a Brahmin from Manipur, arrives in Tripura in a area where Meitei community dominantly resides. He comes there to serve his duty in a temple maintained by Tarubi's family. Mahanta, who loves Tarubi, sees Amuba as an obstacle in his attempts to win her heart. He plots to send Amuba back home but things head differently. Tensions develop between Tarubi's uncle and her family over their land issue. Tarubi's mother dies and Amuba returns to Manipur, with a promise to come back to Tripura with his mother. In Manipur, the effect of insurgency movement spills over Amuba's life. He goes underground in a turn of events. Meanwhile, Tarubi comes to Imphal to reunite with Amuba, but ends in Paikhomba's place. The latter helps Tarubi find Amuba. Finally, a meeting was setup in a floating hut in Loktak lake. Tarubi gets to meet Amuba but things take a dramatic turn.
