Kalidasan (Prakash Raj) is an archaeologist and a foodie. He doesn't like changes and not used to modern-day gadgets. His lifestyle of using old car and lack of interest in using mobile phone clearly tell about his nature.

He is a person, who is happy to live in the past and to remember his lost love. On the other end, there is spinster Gowri (Sneha), who is a dubbing artiste. Her life too is more or less the same. She is not happy either with her life, as her stars are not propitious for marriage, or with her profession. The only thing both Gowri and Kalidasan are happy with is the fact that both love food!
