Plot
Rathnakara is an insurance agent in Bangalore who is awaiting his transfer order to Mumbai and lives a dull life with his cunning and irritating mother, Saroja. One day, Rathnakara learns from a journalist, Mayuri, that he was adopted as an infant by Saroja and leaves his home to find his real world. During the Journey, Rathnakara realizes that blood relations are not important, but the one who took care of us lovingly is important in our life. Rathnakara calls Saroja, only to find that she died from a heart attack, thus leaving him devastated. He leaves for his home and cancels his transfer order to live with his family in remembrance of Saroja.
