Plot

Radha Krishna (Tarun) and Krishna Veni (Aarthi Agarwal) grow up together as childhood friends. Their parents are close companions and business partners. Over time, their childhood bond deepens into love.

When their parents' business faces challenges, a kind-hearted elder (K. Viswanath) steps in to offer help. In return, he requests that Krishna Veni marry his grandson. To honor the elder's support, Radha Krishna decides to sacrifice his love. Krishna Veni, though unwilling, reluctantly agrees to the arrangement.

In the end, however, the elders recognize the depth of the couple’s love and their selflessness, bringing the two lovers together for a joyful and heartwarming conclusion.
