== Plot ==
{{more plot|date=May 2021}}
Shekar becomes mentally ill after his girlfriend Anita dies because of an electric [[short circuit]]ing accident during a rock concert. He is admitted into an institution managed authoritatively by Nagaraj. With the help of a young doctor Geetha, who is Nagaraj's daughter, and an old friend Raja, Shekar slowly regains his memory and mental equilibrium. He and Geetha soon fall in love. But Nagaraj has already arranged Geetha's marriage with someone else, so he opposes the lovers. When Nagaraj finds that Geetha and Shekar are adamant, he performs a surgery ([[lobotomy]]) on Shekar that puts him into a state of coma. Raja feels that death would be preferable to vegetative life and kills Shekar. He confronts Nagaraj, confesses to the euthanasia and tries to kill him for ruining Shekar's life, but Geetha suddenly kills her father before Raja can. She is later admitted into the same institution as a patient.
