Raj Malhotra is a young man who lives a busy life with his elder brother Rohit Malhotra, his sister-in-law Kiran, and his niece. A terrible accident leaves him with a fractured leg that keeps him from walking, and for psychological reasons the problem lingers even after the bone heals. When the Malhotras move to Guntur, Raj forms a close bond with their new neighbour, the tomboyish and adventurous Kajal, drawn to each other by a shared love of airplanes. With Kajal’s steady encouragement, Raj regains the ability to walk, and a strong friendship blossoms that everyone expects to become something more in time.
