Plot

Aakash (Puneeth) is a young man who bears a lot of responsibilities over his shoulder. He works in various fields as a driving instructor, swimming trainer and video cameraman to earn his living and take care of his young sister (Ashitha). He works on the principle of "stretch your leg as limit as your bed"!. He meets Nandini (Ramya), the daughter of a rich business man (Avinash) and develops a liking towards her but does not reveal it to her due to his practical belief that he cannot marry a rich girl. But Nandini falls for Aakash after knowing him better. However, this irks Nandini's brother (Kishore), who begins to play fowl in Aakash's personal life. Aakash's sister engagement gets cancelled, and also he loses his job due to the influence of Nandini's brother. The rest of the plot describes the struggles faced by Aakash and the steps he takes to win over them.
