RJ Vikram, who is engaged to Anjali, soon learns about her wish to marry a man who was once in a serious relationship. Having never been in love before, Vikram proceeds to tell Anjali a false story about his first and only love. Anjali, enchanted by what feels like a magical history, wants to hear this ex’s side of the story and even hopes to write a book about their imagined romance. To satisfy her curiosity without exposing the truth, Vikram, with the help of his friend Chitti, tries to find a suitable girl who can act as his fake ex-girlfriend and keep Anjali fooled.
One day, while watching a play, he notices Preethi, a stage artist and dancer, and believes she could be the perfect match for his ruse. Yet [Preethi] initially dismisses his plea, not wanting to get involved in a fabrication that could ruin real lives. As the story unfolds, we learn more about [Preethi]’s world: she lives with her aged grandfather and a younger brother, navigating the pressure from family to settle down. Her family’s expectations weigh heavily on her, shaping her decisions and her cautious approach to Vikram’s request. To escape the mounting burden, she makes a deal with Vikram: he will act as her boyfriend, and she will pose as his former girlfriend. The arrangement is simple on paper, but it sets off a chain of feelings that neither could ignore for long.
The staged romance begins to blur the lines between pretense and reality. Anjali forms a genuine bond with [Preethi] (whom she believes is Vikram’s ex) as they spend time together alongside Vikram. The dynamics grow increasingly complex as Vikram and Preethi find themselves drawn to each other, their chemistry undeniable, even as they try to maintain the illusion for Anjali’s sake. The tension between loyalty and attraction grows, and the trio becomes entangled in a delicate web of emotions. After a party, a spontaneous moment leads to a kiss between Vikram and Preethi in a lift, an act that feels impulsive and charged with something neither of them can fully explain.
Amid this shifting landscape, Anjali’s own feelings come to the surface: she confesses that she loves Vikram. The love triangle becomes a real triangle, not merely a plot device, as each person grapples with what they truly want. Preethi, confronted with her growing attachments and her lingering sense of duty to her career and her grandfather, makes a difficult choice. She decides to pursue her dreams and leaves to go abroad around the time of Vikram’s wedding. Her departure is a turning point that forces the others to confront their unresolved emotions and the consequences of their choices.
When Preethi returns unexpectedly, Vikram is present and ready to face the truth. He explains that Anjali, who has been a quiet observer, understands that Vikram and Preethi still harbor strong feelings for one another and urges him to follow his heart rather than cling to a wedding that would be built on a lie. The film’s core message emerges: love can be messy, truth matters, and timing plays a crucial role in choosing who deserves a second chance. In the end, Vikram and Preethi reunite, recognizing the connection that was sparked in the most unlikely of circumstances, while Anjali channels her experience into a book about the couple titled Enna Solla Pogirai. The story leaves viewers with a hopeful note about love that resists easy categorization and the possibility of a future where truth and affection can coexist.
