The film is about Vijay, a cheerful bank employee who falls for the confident Purva, but ends up in a hilarious tangle when the lively Harini mistakes his staged heroics as love. As misunderstandings commence a snowball effect, Vijay finds himself in an amusing uncertainty of close relationships, frankness, and romance.
Vijay, a jovial and witty banker, is bored with being single. His best mate, Aravind, is always ribbing him, but also helping him achieve his goal of finding love. A few weeks later, he is out in the city and he sees Purva, an academically accomplished and confident woman, and he's taken by her. Instrumental in attracting her attention, he creates a frantic backdrop of a scam rescue stunt, intending to sucker her into noticing him. The unfortunate twist comes from Harini - an energetic, carefree and bubbly girl who intermixed with the surrounding craziness, witnessing his rambunctious fake success. He is suddenly caught up between two women: one that he likes and another that likes him as he is thy Zeus.
The outcome is an explosion of comedic misunderstandings and chance interactions, both comedic and awkward, ridiculously trying to keep both women happy whilst ensuring the truth is hidden. Aravind's snarky helpful hints complicate things ever more, combined with posting on social media and reckless rumour-mongering, compiles nonsense for Vijay. Thankfully for Vijay, as the misunderstandings evolve, he learns that chasing love without base and trickery to the truth will only end in misinformation. Ultimately, the misunderstandings unravel, the hearts become more sensible, and all friendships remain unscathed. In the end, Vijay accepts that being single isn’t the end of the world. It might just be the start of something better.

With a vibrant cast, the film keeps the energy high and the laughs frequent, while also slipping in heartwarming reflections on relationships and self-discovery.
