A police officer (Radha Ravi) is on Gopi (Dileep) trail. Gopi is a petty thief and he had stolen a precious chain and is on the run. While on the run Gopi meets Veena (Bhavna Pani). Veena is on her way to break the marriage of her lover to a tycoon's daughter. Due to a certain circumstance Gopi has to hide the chain in Veena's bag but later discovers that it is missing. Gopi suspects that the chain is still with Veena and so he accompanies her in her journey.

When Gopi's sister (Sona Nair) realises that he was in town, she comes and informs him that his younger sister's marriage is fixed. Veena's opinion of Gopi changes when she realised the reason why he was a thief. Gopi calls off his younger sister's marriage when he realised that there was a catch in it.
