Raghav leads a calm and secretive life and there is no room for relationships, in it. At a particular instance, he meets Bhavna (Urmila Matondkar), an ornithologist student, and falls in love with her innocence and charm. He hides his real identity from her and she, too, reciprocates his feelings. When things start looking hopeful for a normal life, for Raghav, Bhav
na discovers his real identity and distances herself from him. The rest of the film is about what happens to the ill-fated Raghav.
