In 2016 at Streaks Matriculation School in Ooty, Pari Mukilan is a charismatic football star who shares a classroom with Sabari Karthikeyan, a studious artist and chess enthusiast. Initially, Pari mocks Sabari and bullies him, while Sabari quietly holds his own with talent. Their early rivalry gradually gives way to mutual understanding as they discover common ground.

As days pass, Pari and Sabari broaden their horizons by sharing hopes: Pari’s Himalayan biking dream and Sabari’s artistic ambitions. They start supporting each other, exchanging ideas and quiet encouragement despite their differences.

During a school excursion to a tribal village, the bus crashes and Sabari is trapped while suffering from illness. Pari races to rescue him, sacrificing himself and sustaining fatal injuries. He is brain-dead, and his death devastates the school community.

Pari’s organs, including his heart, are donated to five recipients, saving lives. One of the beneficiaries is Praveenah, who later transfers to Pari’s school as a tribute to his memory.

Inspired by Pari’s selflessness, Praveenah voluntarily transfers to Pari’s school. She notices Sabari’s fixation on Pari’s belongings and witnesses him giving up chess to pursue showjumping. After a disappointing loss in showjumping, Sabari disappears from the scene.

Seven years after Pari’s death, Sabari is spotted riding solo through the Himalayas, choosing solitude as a path to healing. His journey marks a turning point away from his past life and the memories that haunt him.

Praveenah returns on the same route as a co-rider for the Bring Back the Beasts and Butterflies initiative, concealing her true identity. She travels with Sabari, though neither knows their shared history at first.

Sabari remains distant and eventually leaves Praveenah without warning. Praveenah then endures an overnight stay and narrowly escapes a molestation attempt with the help of a truck driver.

Sabari encounters a biking group, learns of Praveenah’s ordeal, and defeats the assailant. He resolves to find her as they continue their journey together.

On the road, Sid shares his grief and affirms that nature can heal such wounds. Their conversations offer a sense of solace amid loss and longing.

At a Key Temple, Praveenah watches Sabari break down emotionally, and later at an art café she encourages him to paint. The act helps Sabari reconnect with Pari’s memory.

Sabari reveals that he always feels Pari’s presence and paints a poignant portrait of a young boy they met in Ladakh, channeling his grief into art.

After a camel ride, Sindhu takes Sabari away to spot a snow leopard, leaving Praveenah alone overnight to process the revelations and her own identity.

The next morning, Praveenah notices Sabari has become more sociable and open to life again, signaling a shift from guilt to possibility.

On the stretch toward Khardung La, Sabari encounters his former PT master Thilak, who recognizes Praveenah and prompts Sabari to piece together her identity. Praveenah finally reveals that she is Pari’s heart recipient, completing the emotional circle.
