Plot

This film starts with Vishal an assistant director confirming his debut film, for which he decides approach a star actress Shalini (Nivetha Thomas) for lead role in his film. His directorial debut being a low budget film and crew are mostly new to the industry, and could not find the contacts to reach out to the big stars. However, the assistant director Vishal manages to get Shalini's email and sends her a short film of his script. Shalini initially mistakes him for another director and rejects his script, but later realizes her mistake and offers to buy him food. She's impressed by his pilot and sets up appointments to learn about the developments to his script and the storyline. Vishal also tries his best to improvise the script page by page, and is almost halfway through.

The scene now moves to a high school college principal Radha Krishna taking his only daughter Mitra to school. The naughty batch of the class, R3 (aka Rahul, Rambabu "Rambo", and Rakesh "Rocky") are introduced. They fool around and try to steal their answer sheets and make a fool of themselves in the Chemistry class. Mitra is like them, in the aspect that she doesn't have an interest in studying. She instead, likes dance and was a national level dancer. Her parents divorced when she was young and she chose to live with her mother. After her mother passed away due to tumor, she had no other choice than to live with her father. She takes a liking to the R3 gang and starts hanging out with them. Disappointed by her low grades, her father decides to enroll her in a Math tuition class which is run by her father's childhood friend. Having no connection/rapport with her father, Mitra decides to run away from home to pursue her career. R3 batch supports her decision, and she devises a perfect plan for them to execute. Later her Math teacher takes advantage of her by asking her to stay back as the exams are approaching soon (and then sexually touching her). She is sad and tells her dad (Radha) about it, but he dismisses it as pathetic excuse for skipping tuition. Mitra is heartbroken, her father is unable to help her and this makes her question her insecurity. She hatches a fake plan to get herself kidnapped by R3 and use the money to learn dance and run away from home. The R3 gang follow the plan perfectly and secure the money from Mitra's father(10 lakh rupees). Later Mitra runs away from home and moves to Hyderabad for living her dream.

Meanwhile R3 gang bash the Math teacher on Mitra's behalf, and unknowingly injure an innocent person (later revealed as Vishal's dad). Meanwhile Radha informs his cop friend Srinu and asks him to investigate R3. Srinu starts the investigation, but considers R3 as innocent. Mitra is excited to perform on stage and invites R3 to watch her performance. She forgets her phone while leaving for the dance studio. She is kisnapped again, this time by real thugs who are even willing to cut her up and sell her organs for money. The thugs contact R3 for money as Mitra tells them that they are her only point of contact.The R3 batch is worried and decides to beg,borrow or steal money to save Mitra.

Vishal narrates half of the script to Shalini and promises to narrate the rest another day after making some minor developments. Later Shalini starts travelling with Vishal for the film, and falls for him. She introduces Vishal to some of the well known people in the film Industry and waits to propose him for the marriage. Vishal receives a call from his mom, who tells him that his father was in an accident. They need 10 lakh rupees for the surgery, and Shalini helps him out with the money with a hope that it makes him indebted to her (and willing to marry her). She gets the money from the bank by one of her agents, and drives Vishal to his dad with the money. Meanwhile a member of R3 sees this as an easy opportunity to get 10 lakh rupees for saving Mitra. They stone Shalini's car on route, which leads to a car crash with no airbags deploying from a 2015 skoda rapid and steal the money. Rahul drops his phone which has the thug's contact on it at the crash scene (A mentally challenged person picks it up later). Vishal and Shalini are admitted to a local hospital and Vishal is hesitant to ask Shalini for more money for his father's surgery.

Meanwhile the thugs try to contact Rahul but to no avail. Then they decide to cut her up and start moving her to the mortuary. Rahul and Vishal realize that the phone was dropped at the crash site, both race to the crash site and deduce that the mentally challenged must've picked up the phone and start hunting for him in the city. Meanwhile one of the thugs gifts Mitra's bag to his daughter. R3 and thug's daughter end up in the same auto-rickshaw and they realize that it is Mitra's bag. They investigate his daughter for his whereabouts and track him down. Meanwhile Vishal manages to track down the mentally chllenged and chases after him. They all run into each other and on realizing it try to disperse. Then Rahul contacts kidnappers to save Mitra but the kidnappers refuse his deal and delete his contact. While transporting Mitra to the mortuary, the thugs hit into a motorcycle and end up creating a huge ruckus. This leads to the police trying to document the issue for insurance purposes. They are surprised to discover Mitra and save her.

Meanwhile Vishal's sister informs Vishal that operation was completed successfully. He realizes that Shalini arranged the money again for his father, and he can repay her by marrying her. He comes to thank her, Shalini accepts his gratitude and counters it with a marriage proposal. Vishal tries to negotiate the marriage proposal for more money (3 crore rupees) and she ends up accepting it. She also tells him beforehand that there would be no repercussions if he rejects her proposal, and she will star in his film regardless of the outcome. They receive a parcel in the hospital which contains the 10 lakhs which was stolen by R3 initially (as they regret their decision now).

It's revealed in a flashback that Srinu makes Radha realise on the mistakes he made while disciplining his daughter. Then Radha decides to get Mitra back and wholeheartedly apologize her. Meanwhile R3 batch finds clue and tries to catch one of the kidnapper in the gang but he escapes from them.

The film ends with Radha supporting his daughter's decisions by enrolling her in a classical dance academy and bashing his friend (Math teacher who molested Mitra) in front of his students along with Mitra. Vishal starts his film with Shalini. R3 gang ponder about their goals in life.
