Synopsis

The story is about Krishna (Ganesh), an anchor for a popular television show. Krishna is a paying guest at the house of Krishnakumar whose daughter Pooja (Pooja Gandhi) is secretly in love with him, though she pretends to dislike him.

When Pooja confesses her love to Krishna, he tells her of his previous life, when he was a nobody and was deeply in love with Anjali (Sharmila Mandre) whose entire family was poverty stricken and Krishna helped them out wherever and whenever he could. Anjali loves Krishna as well and everyone including Krishna assumes that he will end up with Anjali. However, when one of Anjali's wealthy relatives arrives, pays attentions to her, and asks her to marry him so that he can help her study medicine which is her dream, Anjali agrees to her family's wish that she marry this rich relative and break off with Krishna. A heartbroken Krishna comes to Bangalore unable to bear the sorrow.

Pooja is confident that she will win Krishna's love. However, Anjali comes back into Krishna's life – when her fiancé has ditched her. She is now penniless and Krishna helps her out by getting her a medical seat and helping her out. Anjali falls in love with Krishna and in the end when she is about to commence her career as a doctor, she informs him of her love. Krishna tells her that he helped her out not out of love but out of pity. He gives her a sermon on love and tells her that his love for her is a thing of the past. Anjali leaves sadder but wiser.

Krishna gets together with Pooja, and the pair walk away happily leaving the audience to assume they live happily ever after.
