Set among Indian immigrants in the United States, this Telugu drama follows Sandhya, whose traditionalist father relocates the family abroad, where she becomes romantically pursued by two men outside her culture, including a white American named Chris. Framed by a present-day visit to India after her father's death, the story unfolds largely in flashback as it traces her cross-cultural romance and its strain on family ties. The film explores themes of assimilation, tradition, and love across racial and cultural lines within the Indian diaspora.
