Plot

[edit]

Nakul is a software engineer who aspires to be a director like Mani Ratnam and Puttanna Kanagal. Due to pressure mounted by his family, he leaves his house for a feel-good trip to Goa.

At Goa, he meets Rashmi aka Rash, a drunkard-but-independent woman, and Virat, an honest-young man, and they unknowingly reach an isolated island. They share their life stories. Rash reveals her issues with her fiancée Karthik's mother and that Karthik's first priority is his mother and not her. Thus she leaves for Goa. Virat reveals that his father is an industrialist, but has made his mother, Tulasi, a cook in his house and married another woman. It is revealed Virat is the illegitimate son of the industrialist and Tulasi actually became a cook as she didn't want Virat to lead a poor life. When Virat's fiancée humiliates Tulasi, he gets enraged and leaves the house.

The three become friends, and Nakul reunites Virat and Tulasi. They all enjoy their trip by playing watersports where Rash clears the misunderstandings with Karthik and the couple reunites. Nakul, Virat, and Rash encourages Tulasi to participate in a cooking competition as she has good taste in food. Though reluctant, Tulasi agrees, participates, and wins the competition. She delivers a speech about the difficulties of a woman which makes the industrialist realize his mistake and accept Tulasi as his wife.
