He has got a share of tension for his family who badly needs him to keep them going. Arjun joins BCM College for the new academic year, but evermore he has some specific tasks and targets in behalf of joining the college.
Everyone in the campus except Tinu (Riyaz Khan), who was the unchallenged hero hailing from bigger family, welcomed Arjun's talents as he beats Tinu's record in highjump.
Arjun who made consistent performances on the track put Tinu on the back seat, as Arjun become the heartthrob of many within a short time. These defeats were more than something Tinu could handle and started taking it on Arjun on a very personal level apart from sporting spirits. This leads to nasty street fights between the two which resulted in the principal (Captain Raju) calling both of them for talks.
