Radha is a Sri Lankan refugee, who has taken shelter in a refugee camp in India. When a camp guard tries to molest her, a local man called Krishnan comes to her rescue. They start meeting frequently and soon fall in love. When refugees are ordered back to Sri Lanka, Radha goes. Unable to bear the separation, Krishna decides to swim to Sri Lanka, but on reaching shore he is arrested by coastal guards who think he is a terrorist. Krishna manages to escape from captivity and find Radha.

The Indian Express wrote, "Balu Anand, the director, could have geared up the proceedings a bit as the slackness is obvious on certain portions".[6] C. R. K. of Kalki wrote that the film's first half was good, but the director lost grip in the second half and the film became logicless.[7]
