Shiva (Santosh Soban) marries Shruti (Priya Bhavani Shankar). She works as a software engineer, while he is jobless. Shruti is more than happy to shoulder the household's financial burdens until Shiva secures a decent job.

Despite his skills and credentials, Shiva has a hard time finding work. At first she sympathises with him, but later she begins to have doubts about his abilities and becomes angry with him.

But she still goes out of her way, paying a consultancy Rs 10 lakh, to help him land a job. However, he loses the cash, and this creates more problems for him.
