The entrance of Vindya to the flower
business, infuriates girls working in the other boutiques.
This is because that she is more attractive and everybody
buys flowers from her. Though this has irritated the
other girls it takes a long time for Vindya to realize
it. While buying flowers Sirimewan Wattegedara his wife
and son Chathurange leave their slippers for safe keeping
at Vindya's shop. But the slippers disappear and Vindya
is upset over this. This came about as a result of a
conspiracy by the girls in the other boutiques. Even
though Sirimewan's family does not take care much about
the loss of their footwear, Vindya is upset. When she
finds the slippers later she goes to hand them over
to the Sirimewans. On this journey Chathuranga and Vindya
who meet with each other fall in love. Yet Chathuranga
can not continue with it as he does not want to hurt
his parents.
Chathuranga's only sister had married
despite the objection of the family and he has no desire
to go against his parents' wishes. Yet instead of carrying
on with the affair he decides to help Vindya.
Meanwhile Justin who is a divorcee
tries to entice Vindya. When the girl objects he realizes
that the reason for the objection is her affair with
Chathuranga and tries to break it up. Justin carries
tales to Chathuranga's parents as well as Manarangi,
a girl proposed to Chathuranga by his parents.
Determined to help Vindya, Chathuranga
finds a job in a computer firm where he works. Manarangi
