Plot

The film is told as an autobiographical narrative in the voice of Luv Kumar.

Luv Kumar is the son of two parents who fell in love and got married despite belonging to two different linguistic backgrounds. In the present, love has faded from their marriage, simply because Luv Kumar’s father has come to take his wife’s affection for granted within a short period of time.

Looking for a female partner, Luv Kumar scours the length and breadth of Hyderabad for his first girlfriend. He believed in a twisted logic that getting the first girlfriend was tough and after that, the deluge would follow. As his luck would have it he manages to befriend Anu under strange circumstances. He now tries to show off his new girlfriend to whoever cares. Suddenly, girls start finding him attractive, including the ones that had rejected him earlier. He takes full advantage of this situation and goes on a wild spree with numerous girls, conveniently forgetting his first girl Anu who has now hopelessly fallen in love with him. At a party, he even lies to friends within Anu’s earshot that he has slept with her. This breaks Anu’s heart and she decides to leave him and the town for good. Luv Kumar couldn't understand her sudden coldness towards him but he still ignored her.

When Luv Kumar’s mother dies and plunges his family into enormous grief, his father reflects on the relationship he shared with his wife and feels terrible that he had taken the love of his wife for granted all those years she was alive. He tells his son that we always realize the true value of people once they have left us. This strikes a chord in Luv Kumar who realizes how he had taken Anu’s love for granted and hurt her. He leaves to find Anu and woo her back.
