College is where Abhinav hopes to finally find some distance between him and his possessive father Kodandapani, after enduring a childhood of helicopter parenting. He dedicates the 4 years of his engineering degree to making memories, with teachers, friends and a special someone. Desperate to keep his father at arm’s length and to woo his love-interest Spoorthy, Abhi lands an internship with a software giant Rise Solutions. After joining, he gets into beef with his headstrong manager Vijaya Soujanya, who happens to be the daughter of the company’s chairman Gopal. Frustrated with Vijaya’s rude and strict mannerisms, Abhi works with dedication and uncovers a scam within the company planted by Vijaya’s rival.
In the process of setting this issue right, Abhi uncovers secrets about his family from Gopal. He realizes that Vijaya is actually his elder sister and she was adopted by Gopal long before he was born, as his father was unable to bear her medical expenses and gave her up to Gopal and his wife. He also realizes that Vijaya turned cold because of this and despises both Gopal and her father. How Abhi manages to win her cold heart, reunite her with their father and fix the issues within the company forms the rest of the story.
