Madhu runs a beauty parlor. He does not believe in love and marriage and thinks that he can manage his life without a wife. A medical transcriptionist named Sirisha falls in love with him at first sight and tries all possible ways to attract him. But he rejects her proposal saying that love is just a business. Madhu visits other country on a business purpose and happens to meet another girl Kalyani. At first Kalyani hates him because he follows call girls. However she starts developing feelings for him after they return to India. He does the same with her too when she tries to propose her love. Both girls pester him to love them. Once Kalyani directly goes to his house and declares herself as his would be wife. Kalyani also reveals that she is going to die soon because of a bullet present in her head. At first Madhu does not believe her and gets irritated by constant following and throws her out. However, when Madhu tells Sirisha about this, she examines her diagnostic report and finds whatever Kalyani told to be true. The doctors had advised her not to go for the surgery which would result in immediate death. Sirisha also encourages Madhu to accept Kalyani. So he tries to share his love with her. Meanwhile, Sirisha also finds out the German doctor who dealt her case. Madhu and Sirisha travel to Germany and convinces the doctor to perform a surgery.
