Krishna and His Leela

In Vizag, Sathya Rao breaks up with Krishna and moves to Bangalore. After a period of depression, Krishna resolves to move on and begins dating Radha Panicker. He lands a job offer with an IT firm in Bangalore and decides to relocate, planning to maintain a long-distance relationship with Radha.

In Bangalore, Krishna meets his sister Arya’s roommate Rukhsar and forms a close friendship with her, even as he reconnects with Sathya and tells Radha about his budding bond with Sathya. He isn’t navigating alone, as he also keeps in touch with his circle, including his old friend Sricharan Pakala. The dynamics become more intricate as the group expands and old affinities reappear in new ways.

Radha arrives in Bangalore a fortnight later, and the circle—Krishna, Radha, Sathya, Arya, and Rukhsar—takes a vacation to Coorg. The trip cements new moods and loyalties, but after they return, Radha heads back to Vizag. Back in the city, Krishna and Sathya grow closer, while Krishna begins to drift away from Radha, setting the stage for a complicated love triangle.

One night, while staying with Sathya, Krishna ends up sleeping with her, and the two reconcile, choosing to pursue a relationship again. Radha, however, returns to Bangalore and reveals that she became pregnant after the Coorg trip, though she managed to take contraceptives in time. A guilt-ridden Krishna tells Radha that he is not in touch with Sathya, while secretly continuing to date both women, a deception that tensions the already delicate balance.

Arya’s marriage is fixed, and despite Krishna’s reluctance, their estranged father is invited to the wedding. During the ceremony, Krishna struggles to juggle Sathya and Radha, and his father senses the pressure and offers blunt, practical wisdom about choosing a path—wisdom he confesses he himself failed to follow in Krishna’s childhood. Eventually Krishna confesses to the two women that he has been cheating, and they both walk away, leaving him to face the consequences of his choices.

On the advice of Rukhsar, Krishna embarks on a road trip to clear his head and writes a book about his misadventures with Sathya and Radha, published under the title Krishna and His Leela. The book becomes a hit, and at a meet-and-greet, he reveals that he has maintained a good friendship with both women: Radha has settled abroad, and Sathya is set to marry the following month. At an after-party following Sathya’s wedding, Krishna approaches Rukhsar with a proposal, only to be met with a shocked, uneasy gaze.
