==Plot==
Arun, the son of a barrister and the self-proclaimed "prince" of the male students, experiences a blow to his pride and enormous ego when he places second in the Terminal Examination. Lily Fernandes, the modest daughter of a nurse in a private nursing home, outperforms him. Taking this as a defeat, Arun nurses a personal vendetta to crush Lily's growing popularity in school. Despite Arun's attempts to undermine her, Lily tolerates his and his friends' remarks and sarcasm, bearing no grudge against him.

Over time, they gradually discover each other's basic qualities and become admirers. They spend weekends visiting beautiful places together to deepen their understanding. Lily's mother is the first to notice the love blossoming between her daughter and Arun. Despite Arun being deeply in love with Lily, concerns arise due to their differing social statuses. Despite these worries, Arun's father approves and proposes to Lily's mother, suggesting that their children be allowed to marry.

When everything is going well, Lily falls ill and is discovered to have [[leukemia]]. Even though Lily and Arun act as if nothing was wrong, everyone tries to save her. Everything seems fine for a while, but Lily's condition worsens. She eventually dies in Arun's arms, leaving him devastated. Arun attends the same college they studied at and mourns for Lily. The film concludes with Arun by the seaside, promising Lily that he will never forget her. He acknowledges that she was an inspiration in his life and will always remain so.
