Plot
Sooraj is an aspiring musician, who is in a serious relationship with his best friend Gopika. On the other hand, he is not on good terms with his family as his dad Rajeevan opposes his choice of being a musician and forces him to go into another career path.
During the thick of this father-son rivalry, his mother, Rajeevan's wife Anusree is forgotten about by the duo. Rajeevan not seemingly satisfied in his relationship seeks out his once-serious ex-girlfriend Meera. They meet and talk about the old times.
One day, Anusree passes away. The father and son slowly begin to understand the importance and impact she had on their lives and the people around her as they grieve her death. Gopika supports Sooraj as much as she can during this time. At the same time, Rajeevan feels guilty about Meera. One day while cleaning out Anusree's things, Rajeevan comes across a diary of hers. The diary accounted for love notes and poems not detailing a timeline, that were clearly not meant for Rajeevan. An enraged Rajeevan feeling she was betraying him all this time storms out. Sooraj finds the book and realises it is for a lover that came before Rajeevan. Realising his mother wanted this ex of hers to honour her after her death, he eventually suggests locating this man to his father en route to the place to spread her ashes and honour his mother's last wish. His father initially against this idea slowly comes to and agrees.
Finding and telling this man about her death and discovering Anusree's essence which was once lost in the chaos of her family encapsulated the rest of the story.
