Plot
Vidyadhari (Seeta) is an independent woman who likes to work hard and be sincere. She hates the likes of men because of a past incident in her life that scarred her emotionally. One day, her serpentine boss Chakradhar (Sudhakar), whose plan to bed her backfires when a strange man Anudeep (Rajendra Prasad) walks into her office and turns Chakradhar's plan against him and leaves her with a mystery shrouding his past. The story shows how Anudeep always shows up at the very moment Vidyadhari lands in trouble. This perplexes her, but the truth is far stranger than fiction. Who is Anudeep and what his true intentions?
