Hiralal, a passionate Bollywood enthusiast from the vibrant city of Hyderabad, is locally known as 'Hero' for his deep-rooted love for Hindi cinema. His world revolves around his auto-rickshaw and occasional brawls, until a chance encounter with Roopa, a mesmerizing film actress, forever changes the rhythm of his life. Enchanted by her grace, Hiralal takes her on a tour of his city, only to fall irrevocably in love with her. When Roopa's film unit departs, Hiralal's affection for her transcends boundaries, propelling him on a journey to Bombay. His heart aches with the hope of confessing his love, only to be shattered when he discovers that his feelings are unreciprocated. Lost in this city of dreams, he teeters on the edge of despair. However, a failed suicide attempt leads him into the arms of the stunning and cunning actress, Sitara Devi.
