Lucky is introduced as an absent-minded junior botanist who can hardly stay focused on anything for long. His life is rooted in small, forgetful slips that tend to complicate even simple plans, and these quirks are not lost on his family. His father, Anjaneya Prasad, tries to line up a traditional marriage for him with the daughter of Panduranga Rao, a man who runs a security company. The arrangement seems promising on paper, but Rao quickly pulls back when he learns about Lucky’s mental lapses, warning him in no uncertain terms to stay away if he cannot prove his steadiness.
Yet fate has a different script in mind. On the way to donate blood to his boss, Lucky’s gaze lands on Nandana, a vibrant kuchipudi dance teacher, and he is instantly drawn to her. In a sudden, earnest moment, he ends up donating blood to one of her students, earning a positive, if accidental, impression. From that point on, Lucky tries to hide his forgetfulness behind a confident front, telling Nandana that he is a philanthropist and a man of purpose. This charm works well enough to win her heart, though Lucky remains blissfully unaware of the fact that she is Rao’s daughter—the very connection that could complicate matters in a single, decisive moment.
As the romance blossoms, a rival love interest emerges in the form of Ajay, a police inspector who also falls for Nandana. The tension thickens because Nandana is quietly waiting for Lucky to propose, even as Ajay makes his own moves. The couple’s first real test comes when Lucky, in a bid to impress, unwittingly accompanies Nandana to a hospital after a minor crisis at her sister-in-law’s delivery. The act sets a chain of events in motion: after the baby is born, Nandana confesses her warmth and announces her willingness to marry him, and the two begin to plan a life together. She also hints that her father Rao has warmed to the idea of their union, setting up an emotional crossroads for Lucky.
However, the truth about Rao’s daughter creates a sharp rift. Lucky initially fails to recognize Nandana as Rao’s own daughter, and when Rao discovers that his daughter has fallen for Lucky, he is furious and rebukes Lucky harshly after an incident involving a frightened little girl near a pond. Realizing the peril of the situation, Lucky flees, and in a bid to salvage the relationship, his loyal friend Ali is pressed into service to pose as Nandana’s lover while Lucky crawls back into Rao’s good graces by becoming an apprentice in Rao’s world. The social masquerade grows thicker at a family naming ceremony, where Rao’s nephew mistakes Ali for the lover and other relatives assume Lucky is the intended groom, creating a tangled web of mistaken identities that complicates the romance further.
The confusion deepens when a sick Nandana becomes the focal point of Lucky’s efforts to spend time with her, prompting further political and emotional maneuvering. Yet the core question remains: can Lucky prove his love and loyalty despite his memory lapses, or will Rao’s stern expectations and Ajay’s determined pursuit push them apart? The family soon undertakes a broader journey as Rao asks Lucky to accompany Nandana and her relatives to Srisailam, a drive that becomes a test of character more than geography. A wrong turn leads Lucky to the outskirts of Bangalore, where he claims a temple holds a historically significant significance, showcasing not only his ingenuity but also the stubborn streak that makes him both endearing and unreliable.
As the truth about Lucky’s condition becomes harder to ignore, Ajay intensifies his personal stake, while Ramanujam—referred to in the family as Ramanujam, “Wrong Talk Ramanujam” to his friends—offers blunt, sometimes comic wisdom about the perils of forcing a marriage. The couple’s future teeters on the cusp of heartbreak, and Rao’s pragmatic, compassionate side begins to surface: he has known about Lucky’s genuine devotion all along and positions himself as the bridge that could unite the lovers, even if it means bending some social rules.
A pivotal moment arrives when Lucky reveals his longing to start anew, hinting at a life abroad in Canada. Rao and Lucky’s parents head for the airport with high hopes, only to discover that Lucky remains behind, a detail that turns the scene into a tender, almost comic revelation of his forgetfulness—he has mistaken his passbook for a passport. The emotional knot loosens in the wake of this misstep, as Nandana appears at the airport, confirming that the two of them still belong together.
In the end, the misunderstandings melt away, and the couple chooses each other—despite the quirks that sparked the chaos in the first place. Lucky and Nandana marry and begin their life in a shared “fantasy world,” where love, memory, and a little luck carry them through the everyday ups and downs of their unconventional romance. The story closes on a hopeful note, celebrating a bond that endures beyond misunderstandings, proof that true affection can navigate even the most tangled of circumstances.
