Spoilers ahead

Ananda Rao is the central figure in this light-hearted comedy set against the backdrop of Visakhapatnam. The tale kicks off with a playful bet among Swarna’s friends: she crafts a blind love letter to an unknown admirer to test the idea that a girl’s words can easily woo a boy. The twist comes when Swarna, in a hurry to post the letter, forgets to include a return address. Her friend hijacks the plan, selecting the name “Sony” from a TV advertisement in a newspaper, and Swarna’s own chosen name, the one linked to her brother’s friend, is used to forge the recipient’s details. The letter, shockingly, ends up at Hindustan Shipping Board in Visakhapatnam, addressed to a man who shares the same city and workplace as Swarna’s intended recipient.
