Plot

Savitri/Savi is a vegan who works as a veterinarian at an animal shelter. Satyaprakash/Satya is an engineer who manufactures products related to solar energy. Both of them are satisfied in their fields and have won the youth icon award for their work. They are introduced to each other as prospective marriage partners by their parents, having met earlier at the wedding of common friends. During the meeting, Saavi puts forth a condition that she wants to stay with Satya at his house for two months in order to test their compatibility and future. Initially everyone except Satya is against this, whereas he thinks it will be a good experiment. When they both explain how arranged marriage couples usually don't get along well and may end up in divorce, eventually everyone agrees. Saavi has two conditions: Firstly, their relationship will be completely platonic. Secondly, Satya will have to give up non-veg food. Satya agrees and hence Saavi shifts to his house. Over the next 2 months, Satya and Saavi get to know each other, their professions and their interests. Saavi helps Satya in acquiring important work related papers while Satya helps to raise funds for Saavi's animal shelter and the two soon start falling in love. However, in the success party of Satya's project where he plans to propose to Saavi, She notices non-veg food being cooked inside and gets furious Satya. Satya is also upset at the fact that she doesn't want to adjust at all, and tells her that he changed his daily habits only because of Saavi's request. However, he cannot force others to give up non-vegetarian food and accept a vegan lifestyle like he did. Both of them get into a heated argument and depart disheartened. Satya and Saavi meet again at the Youth Icon award ceremony and confess their feelings comically at a press interview, where Satya gifts Saavi a pet puppy named Galleo. The film ends with Satya and Saavi getting married.
