When the groom's father demands dowry on the wedding day, she runs away from her marriage. Soon after, she runs into Anand (Tarun).

Reception

A critic from Idlebrain.com wrote that "The initial half of the second half is boring (a common problem with journey flicks if they do not have conflict point). The director makes it up in the last half an hour". [5] A critic from 123telugu wrote that "Watch it, simply because there are few better movies running today. The first half is adequate. The second half promises to be brilliant and except for the last half hour does not deliver on that promise. Watch it only for Genelia". [6]
