Plot

His mother (Urvashi), a junior artiste in films, is a nightmare for filmmakers, thanks to her terrible acting skills. He once happens to meet Srilakshmi (Srijita Ghosh), another dancer from Srilakshmi Srividya Dance School, at a competition held in the city, where the latter makes her presence only to settle some personal scores with Krishna (Nagendra Prasad), the head of Krishna Dance Academy.
