Siddu's girlfriend cheats on him with another guy which leads him into a depressed state to which he finds a book on the road where he collapses. As he decides to burn all of his memories with his ex-girlfriend, he discovers the book he found on the road is actually someone's personal diary and begins to read it.

The diary belonged to Nandini. Nandini is a strange woman who does not use a Mobile Phone, and believes in human interaction. Siddu connects with the diary and develops feelings for the woman. Nandini visited Hyderabad to deliver a letter from her grandfather to a man named Venkat Rao. Through her journey of contacting him, she was attacked by anonymous people and was in trouble.

After 18 pages of reading, the diary happened to be empty and at first, he thought she stopped journalling since her task was completed. When he goes to meet her at her hometown, Siddu discovers a shocking revelation from Nandini's grandmother that both Nandini and her friend Sanjana died in a car accident a year prior.

Siddu could not digest the fact that the woman he loved had died. Through the advice from his grandfather, he decides to complete her unattended tasks to make himself and everyone around feel that Nandini is alive. As he completes those tasks, he gets to know that Nandini may still be alive through a bus conductor who happened to see Nandini in the ICU 2 days after she was believed to be dead.

To find more clues as to where Nandini is, Siddu begins his search for the letter that was supposed to be passed to Venkat Rao. Siddu finds out that an architect Talwar was trying to kill Nandini for that cover as it contains proof to a case that he is being prosecuted against and hopes to destroy it.

Siddu finally knows that Nandini is alive and well through Dr. Sandeep, who happens to know Nandini and is also Siddu's neighbour. Siddu decides to not meet her as he understands that she may not love him back.

Six months later, Nandini returns to her regular life and is surprised to see all her tasks she hoped to complete before the accident accomplished by Siddu. She ponders his identity and enquires with the bus conductor, Sandeep and Siddu’s best friend, Bhagi. She finds out that Siddu will be going to Kashi to commemorate the death anniversary of Nandini's parents. In hopes to find Siddu, she unexpectedly bumps into him and reciprocates the feeling 'Love' back.

It is later revealed that in one of the tasks of Nandini, it was to buy a watch for an anonymous person who guarded her in a riot and broke his watch in the process. That person just so happened to be Siddu.
