After a few initial encounters, Annalakshmi develops love for Anand. However, Anand has other plans. The mystery is soon unraveled and is made known that Anand hails from a family of doctors. When everyone thinks that Anand will tie the knot to Annalakshmi, the twist occurs in the form of Anand accepting an arranged marriage. What transpires between the lead couple forms the rest of the story, which ends in an interesting climax.
