Shiva (Puneeth Rajkumar) is a pick-pocket, but quits, and starts selling tickets in black for a living. But he wants a proper job that will impress his girlfriend. He goes to ACP Vikram Rathod (Nasser) for a job, but is put on hold. So meanwhile, he does what anyone hunting for a job to impress his girlfriend would do first - he starts looking for a girlfriend.

He is smitten by the bimbette Preeti (Hansika Motwani) at first sight, which is surprising since he otherwise seems a pretty intelligent guy. He gets a kick out of courting her and seeing her having a fit every time she encounters him. Eventually, of course, she stops avoiding him, when he uses every piece of equipment in a gym to beat the hell out of some goons who misbehaved with her.

Now, Shiva does not know that Rathod is Preeti's father. Neither did we. Preeti, however, does - that Rathod is her father, we mean. Rathod knows about these two, but these two don't know that he knows. Rathod knows this, too - that they don't know that he knows. And meanwhile, we know it all - what's coming next, we mean.

Shiva's proximity to his daughter infuriates him, so on the pretext of helping him get a job, he makes him a police informer in the gang of the dreaded international terrorist D (Rahul Dev). This, so that he can nab the traitor from the police department in the gang, and also nab Saleem (Suman), D's accomplice, in the process. So the next time you're in a relationship, ask your partner what his/her parents do for a living. And ask your partner to ask you what your parents do. It saves so much trouble.

Preeti's questions as to what Shiva's job is are met with I'll-tell-you-laters, but when she witnesses one of Shiva's escapades, she disowns him. Meanwhile, the ACP is happy that things are going as planned. Shiva even gets him Saleem, but the ACP gets ready to shoot Shiva too dead. The climax is something that anyone can guess.
