This contemporary sports-based drama revolves around Krishna (Nakul), and active young man who is a good basketball player in Trichy. During a game an accident takes place and his best buddy Shiva (Kreshna) dies. To get away from the past, Krishna leaves Trichy and moves to a Chennai, joining a college in the metro. He finds that cricket is the most favoured game and given undue advantage in the college sports curriculum. Slowly, due to circumstances mainly due to the villainous cricket captain (Telugu actor Siddharth) he resists, and rebels by starting basketball team in college. How Krishna’s determination and fierce dedication to triumph at all cost forms the rest of the story.
