Ajay is a young boy who lives with his mother Parvati. He plays sarangi well. Looking at his music skill, a couple of the same village who lives in Bangalore takes Ajay with them with Parvati's permission so that he could have better opportunities there. Also they take the village head's son: Sunil as he is spoilt there. Now both grownup, Ajay is a calm, innocent, humble man while Sunil, although being good at heart, is self-willed. Ajay one day composes a tune by himself. This is overheard by Madhu, a college student who immediately grows fond of it.
Madhu begins to like the one who played the tune and so does Ajay to the girl who expressed her feelings for the person who composed the music. Various instances take place which connect both Madhu and Ajay who then love each other without actually looking each other's faces nor even knowing each other'sidentity. One day Sunil sees Madhu, falls in love with her and pretends to be the one who originally composed that tune which Madhu was admiring. Madhu believes this and later both get engaged after convincing their families. On the other hand, Ajay keeps on searching the girl who admired his composition but in vain. In the climax, Ajay plays his tune in a South Indian music competition as his own composition which angers Madhu. She urges Sunil to reveal to everybody that he is the real creator of that tune. Ultimately Sunil's caretakers reveal to Madhu that Sunil doesn't know anything about music but Ajay indeed composed that tune. Heartbroken Madhu then goes to Ajay as he was her true love.
