What the story is about
Siddharth, a bachelor in his late 30s, has turned down one marriage proposal after another because no one matches the five qualities he has in mind. Then he meets Eira, a college student who fits all of them. The obstacle is her mother, Vaishnavi, who objects to the age gap and who, it turns out, was Siddharth’s first love at school. The film follows his attempts to win over both of them.
