They befriend each other over a drink and Aras reveals to Arun that his children have left him when they learn of his decision to remarry on his wife's passing, twenty-two years ago. He wishes to get a photo clicked with his family one last time and pleads Arun to unite him with his three children who are now living Sydney, Bangalore, and Washington, D.C. Arun, initially reluctant, sees his distress and assures him.

On learning that the husband of Aras' eldest daughter is a Police commissioner in Bangalore, he acquires their residential address and befriends the couple's younger daughter Neethu.

Gradually Arun falls in love with Geetha and Aras gets to know about Arun's love and feels happy and tells him to propose to her. Arun goes to propose to Geetha but Geetha excitedly tells Arun she is in love with her colleague and requests Arun to unite them as Geetha sees Arun as her best friend.
