Sashi's father is a respected cop and his mother is a devoted house-maker. Sashi had always been his parent's pride, but he craves for much more out of his life.

One day, Sashi comes across a bubbly and lively girl named Vaishnavi (Surbhi), who works as a designer. His life takes a turn as he falls in love with Vaishnavi, who reciprocates his feelings. Vaishnavi's positivity lights up Sashi's life, and he starts to open up and enjoy his life.

Sashi then decides to propose to Vaishnavi, but she is already engaged to a successful businessman, Ashok (Ajay). Sashi couldn't accept it, but he couldn't express his emotions to Vaishnavi as well.
