Plot

edit

Kokila (Shamitha) and Hema (Divya Padmini) are best friends who are thick as thieves. Unfortunately they break up due to their love over Nila(Neha). Though this is the main line of story, a number of minor characters and stories associated with Nila are intermingled in the series. Nila stays with Kokila and Ramkumar and loves them like her parents and the couple reciprocates it. Suspicion creeps in the mind of Nila when she overhears the conversation between Sharadha and Ramkumar. Nila mistakenly accuses Ramkumar guilty of an affair with Sharada and being the father of Hari, who is actually her nephew.
