Plot

Ravi, Raaji, Satish, Razia and Baddu were classmates and a group of friends in the 1990s. After several years, they all meet again at their 10-year reunion. Everyone is present except for Murali, who died during their last semester.

Back in college, Ravi was a firebrand leader of the left students wing and Satish was his rival who headed the opposite faction of the students wing. Murali was a hardcore singer. Rajeshwari was a classical dancer who regularly won awards for the college with her dance. After a brief friction, Ravi and Raaji become good friends fall in love with each other. Satish, eager to rise up higher in politics, wants to marry Raaji, who is the daughter of a politician. He encourages Raaji to stand in the college elections, opposing Ravi, hoping to drive a wedge between the couple. He eventually succeeds in doing so during the college elections. In an ensuing incident, Murali dies suddenly. Everybody thinks that Murali died of an asthmatic attack. Subsequently, Ravi abruptly drops out of college, during their BSC final semester and leaves angrily without telling anyone, hoping to get a good job and become successful. He later clears the exams too. Raaji thinks that Ravi left because of their ongoing conflict. Satish later confessed to Raaji that he was the person responsible for Ravi leaving the college and for separating Raaji from Ravi for his petty political gains. He also told to Raaji that Ravi was a good, friendly and honest person and that she misunderstood him. She too dropped her studies and tried to find Ravi's whereabouts but fails.

Ravi later went to Delhi to join for UPSC coaching classes, since he had completed his exams and obtained his BSC degree and studied really hard and cleared the Civil Services Examination and became an honest and successful IAS officer. At present, Ravi is a District Collector in the Maharashtra cadre, moving successfully up in his career as a government officer, and remains a bachelor having almost completely forgotten his past and lives his life on his own terms. His mother had passed away by then and his sisters had been married off by then and are with their respective families. Baddu is now married and settled in the middle east as a businessman. Sathish has now become an MLA. Rajeshwari, still unmarried, continues her career as a classical dancer.

In the present, somebody tries to kill Ravi by strangulation. The police investigate but find no clue. The case became really serious since Ravi is a senior government official. Later it is revealed that Razia, the shy and reserved girl in the group, was the one responsible. Her reason is that she happens to overhear Raaji's confession to Ravi to forgive her for her past mistakes and Ravi's talk to Raaji, where Ravi reveals that he was accidentally responsible for Murali's death which was on a fateful night during the college elections. Razia and Murali were secretly lovers who decided to get married in the future, and her motivation was revenge. On recovering from the hospital, Ravi and Razia subsequently reconcile. Later Satish apologized to Ravi for his wrongdoings and they become friends.

So Raaji and Ravi decide to get married and Ravi forgives Raaji for her mistakes and they hug each other and start loving each other once again. Once the truth is revealed, the entire group reconciles. They leave the college reunion happy, promising that they would all meet again. Ravi leaves in his car and everyone bids goodbye to him.
