In 2027, Mani is a former hockey player trapped in a stressful marriage and working as an EB Lineman with a meagre salary. He clashes with his wife Priya and faces constant pressure from his in-laws about his failed sports career. This daily grind leaves him yearning for a different, brighter future.

Mani meets a group of scientists who are developing a time travel device. They explain that the machine can reveal how different choices would alter outcomes. Intrigued by the possibility, Mani contemplates using it to fix his life.

Mani travels back to 2020, arriving two days before his planned wedding. His goal is to intervene in his past and address the root causes of his unhappiness. He prepares to meet his past self and chart a different course for both of them.

In the past timeline, EB Mani announces his identity to the groom Mani and shares details only he could know. The groom doubting whether this is a doppelganger is convinced once EB Mani reveals things only the true Mani would know. The revelation shakes the groom's certainty about his life.

EB Mani pressurizes the groom to cancel the marriage, even threatening to release a damning video. He also hands the groom an exit watch and tells him to travel to 2027 to understand the consequences of the choice he’s about to make. The groom grapples with a powerful, conflicting impulse to resist.

The groom travels to 2027 and is shocked by Priya's unhappy life and the lack of hockey success he envisioned. He also sees that Priya’s friend Meghna could be the supportive partner he needs. The glimpse plants doubt about the wedding and its future happiness.

Returning to 2020, the groom decides to end the upcoming marriage and instead proposes to Meghna, a woman who seems to understand him better. This dramatic pivot reshapes both their futures and the timeline they inhabit. The decision triggers a new set of consequences for all involved.

In the new 2027 timeline, Mani experiences success as a hockey player but faces a pending divorce from Meghna. Meghna is portrayed as pampered and fame-hungry, which strains their relationship and Mani's career. He begins to regret the path he has followed after altering the past.

Mani attempts to reconnect with Priya, who is now working as a waitress. Priya apologizes for forcing the marriage and reveals guilt about events around their wedding, including an abortion, which adds emotional weight to Mani's resolve to set things right. The reconciliation feels fragile but possible.

Deciding to restore the original timeline, Mani and Albert attempt another time jump back to 2020. One of the scientists, angered by Mani's self-serving use of the device, tampers with the machine. The tampering throws Mani into a mental asylum instead of the intended timeline shift.

After a period of struggle in the asylum, Mani arrives at a moment where the groom Mani has been sent to 2027 and will return to 2020. Mani encounters his alternate selves and Groundamani, and they must decide how to proceed to stabilize the timelines. The encounter forces them to confront the consequences of their choices.

During a tense moment at the mandap, the truth about Priya's pregnancy is revealed. The newfound information softens the resistance to marrying for a second time, and Priya approaches the mandap ready to commit to Mani if the truth is respected. The couple chooses honesty and trust as their guiding principle.

Priya and Mani finally marry in 2020, choosing to trust each other and build a life together. EB Mani and the other version fade from the foreground as Meghna's arc continues separately with Karthik. The timeline stabilizes with the couple's commitment and a hopeful future.

In the restored 2027 timeline, Mani is a successful hockey player and a father to a daughter, with Priya as his wife. She sometimes scolds him for trivial reasons, but their bond remains strong. The couple navigates life with a renewed sense of partnership, suggesting the changes to the past have reshaped their present.
