Krishna joins SS medical college where he behaves carefreely and also earns the irk of senior student leader Arya, Krishna soon falls for Priya, who is Arya's sister where she is irritated by his antics, but warms up to him after he saved a patient. Meanwhile, Ajay is a womanizer, who is the son of SS College Chairman Somnath Prasad where Somanath warns him to stay away from the students. Meanwhile, Ajay (wearing a helmet) tries to molest Priya, (who is later revealed to be Krishna disguised) where she escapes and reveals the incident to Arya where he and the students form a strike in front of the college.

Meanwhile, A CBI officer is appointed to investigate the Judge's death where he dubs the killer as 'JAGUAR' and interrogates SS Channel CEO Shouri Prasad, whom he pays no heed to. Somnath Prasad hires ACP 'Encounter' Shankar to call off the students' strike. However, he is killed by Krishna in an amusement park. Meanwhile, Krishna steals Arya's phone and sends the pictures of himself and the SS Brothers and Ajay to the CBI officer, stating that he will kill them, thus making the SS Brothers believe that Arya is the JAGUAR suspect.
