Plot

The film begins with Shyam standing outside Anuradha's hostel. Seeing him wait for her in the rain, she falls for him, and she gives him her phone number. The next day, Shyam's father's friend came with his daughter Radhe. Shyam is about to message Anuradha on WhatsApp at the same time that Radhe starts talking to him, and she says she wants to marry him. Shyam is confused, but he agrees to marry her. Shyam meets Radhe in a restaurant, and he gives her a greeting card, but on the card he has written Anuradha's name. Though she finds that, she marries him. Shyam and Radhe understand each other, and they are happy. Everything goes well until Radhe finds his diary. Shyam is a filmy guy who has fantasies and romantic desires that he has seen in movies. He also has a diary, which is a to-do list about his romantic desires. Radhe finds that he uses the same theory for every girl with whom he has a romantic interest. Radhe asks him not to be a filmy guy and to stay in normal life, and because of her advice, he starts hating her. In the meantime, Anuradha is also searching for Shyam. What happens after this forms the rest of the story.
