Plot
Vikram Kumar aka Lucky is a happy-go-lucky graduate, who is in love with a TV anchor Gowri, who gives him the cold shoulder, and helping her keep Lucky at an arm's length is her pug dog Zoo Zoo. Gowri is compelled to resign from her job and takes over as creative head of an advertising company. Lucky arrives for a job interview in the company where he learns that Gowri will be providing the job interview and would probably not let him get a job in her workplace.
With the help of his friend Anand aka 420, Lucky takes on a different identity, Vicky, complete with new wardrobe and changed hairstyle. Vicky builds a rapport with Gowri and proposes to her. Then, he learns that she is in love with Lucky. Vicky tries to prove that he himself is Lucky, but to no avail as 420 had already destroyed all the things linked to Lucky on his own advice. Gowri strongly tells Vicky that if he was Lucky, Zoo Zoo would have chased him out.
Vicky resigns from job and later turns up dressed as Lucky. Gowri still rejects him saying she has started adoring Vicky, but later she confesses to Zoo Zoo that she knows both Lucky alias Vicky are the same person and that she is rejecting him as she doesn't want Zoo Zoo to feel abandoned. After seeing how Gowri adores Lucky, Zoo Zoo reunites them.
