Plot

The film begins with a business magnet named Varun Kumar standing on a sunshade of a huge apartment building, stripping off and spinning rearwards. Varun has accomplished his 7th anniversary with his benevolent wife, Aparna, and they are delightful with a child, Suhan. Tryambakam, his father-in-law, is an aged playboy who maintains an adult jokes club and provokes Varun towards his path. All is well until Varun's bestie, Gokul, also a tomcat, gifts him a stag film, which lusts him to have flings. Destiny makes Gokul's wife Keertana & Amurtha as mates. The two debates are about all husbands as slickers who uphold affairs. Aparna states her husbands is righteous and fond of her. Hence, they puzzle over and designate a detective behind Varun.

Meanwhile, Varun lusts for various girls: Pavala Kamala, Visweswari, a receptionist, etc., absconding from them, but in vain. However, his hunt ends with a lovely model, Tanvi, whom Varun shadows as white on rice. After moving several pawns, he entices her, who admits tryst. Parallelly, Tryambakam acquaints and develops close intimacy with a teenage beauty, Amurtha. He truly endears her and proposes what she calls into question. Consequently, Varun & Tanvi conduct multiple trials for a pleasurable night, which backfires. So, with Gokul's aid, Varun schemes it at his house in Keertana's absence. Startlingly, Aparna appears therein when Varun struggles to wangle somehow. Yet Aparna unfolds and grapples with the challenges posed by her husband's wandering eye. The next day, Tanvi invites Varun to her flat and embarrasses him despite his being a spouse. They are playing strip poker when Tanvi's fiancé suddenly arrives, ending with Varun being on top. The firemen secure him, who is regretful to land at home in a place so. At last, Aparna proclaims it's her sham with Tanvi, which reforms him after soul-searching. Finally, the movie ends by showing Suhan starting the play.
