The film begins with a flashback in the early 1980s, where a young Sujatha and Raghu are playing. Their fathers are best friends and have decided that Raghu and Sujatha will eventually get married. As the two go to high school, Sujatha becomes an ideal student, while Raghu becomes a good-for-nothing man. He develops bad habits, like stealing money and gambling. Once, he beats Sujatha's classmate for being close with her while studying, and he and Sujatha have a falling out, swearing to never meet again. Eventually, Raghu's family moves away, and as days go by, both forget about each other.
In the present, Sujatha has grown to be a beautiful young woman whom her father adores. On the outskirts of their village, Pushpathoor, lives Ravi. Ravi belongs to a poor family and was raised by his widowed mother. He is an obedient, polite man who takes tuition for kids and runs errands around the village for money. He has a group of friends, and they all go to the same college as Sujatha and become her classmates. Initially, Sujatha does not talk to Ravi, but after some time, they fall in love. This is known to Sujatha's younger sister Kalyani. As days go by, Sujatha openly reciprocates Ravi's love. The two travel in the same compartment on the train and are spotted by Sujatha's family astrologer. He conveys the same to her father, who then forbids her to go to college and contacts his old friend to arrange Sujatha’s marriage to his son, Raghu.
Raghu turns out to be an arrogant rogue and womaniser. His mother persuades him to meet Sujatha, and Raghu comes to Pushpathoor to see her with no interest. However, when he meets Sujatha, he falls for her beauty and wants to marry her. When Sujatha reveals her love for Ravi, Raghu threatens her. The wedding arrangements proceed. Ravi gets beaten up by Raghu in front of Sujatha and has his home invaded and trashed by Raghu's men, who threaten his mother. Ravi's mother, however, wants her son to fight back and says that if he dies, it should be with victory and not like a coward. Heeding his mother's words, Ravi challenges Raghu, warning him that he and Sujatha will get married before 7 A.M. the next morning. Enraged, Raghu tells the family to pull the wedding forward. Sujatha goes into the room to change, but she actually waits for Ravi after learning about his message. Ravi and Sujatha escape before Raghu arrives. After an intense chase, Ravi and Sujatha are cornered by Raghu and his men in the forest. Ravi and Raghu challenge each other in an intense hand-to-hand combat, where Ravi finally defeats Raghu. With Sujatha's father's approval, Ravi and Sujatha get married in the presence of Raghu and her family.
