Unable to sleep, a young girl asks her father to tell her a bedtime story. Initially reluctant, her father tells a story of a fly named Nani.Nani (a young man who specialises in preparing fireworks) is in love with his neighbour Bindu, a micro artist who runs an NGO titled Project 511. Bindu surreptitiously harbours feelings for him as well. Sudeep, a rich and powerful industrialist, is attracted to Bindu when she visits his office to raise money for her NGO.

He befriends her and donates ₹ 1.5 million, gaining her trust. Sudeep sees Nani as a rival, and plans to kill him. One night, Nani helps Bindu finish a piece of micro art a locket made out of a pencil. While returning home, he is kidnapped by Sudeep, who kills him and makes it look like an accident.

Bindu, unaware of this, proposes to the dying Nani by telephone. Her proposal is the last thing Nani hears, and he is reincarnated as a housefly unable to remember its previous life.The flys memory of its previous birth is triggered when it accidentally encounters Sudeep and Bindu. Sudeep asks the heartbroken Bindu to accompany him to New Delhi to meet the education minister, who would help Project 511 gain national recognition if impressed with a proper presentation about the NGO. The fly causes Sudeep to have an accident on his way to the airport and writes I will kill you on the windshield, which makes him paranoid.

The fly, who sees Bindu mourning Nanis death in her bedroom, reveals that it is Nani by writing on the desk with her tears. It conveys the circumstances of Nanis death to Bindu, and they join forces against Sudeep. Sudeeps obsession to kill the fly affects his professional and personal life adversely. In a chain of events, his money is burnt to ashes, leaving him almost penniless.After learning from a sorcerer that Nani was reincarnated as a fly and seeks revenge, Sudeep arranges to kill him; however Nani escapes and causes a short circuit, killing the sorcerer, and leaving Sudeep unconscious.

Although he and Bindu assume that Sudeep is dead, he is saved by his business partner. When Sudeep learns that Bindu is helping the fly, he is enraged. He kills his partner to collect a ₹ 7 billion insurance policy, and a contract affecting his professional life is rescinded due to the death.Sudeep brings Bindu to his home and abuses her. Nani has a needle, and seriously injures Sudeep when he tries to kill him.

Sudeep later clips Nanis wing and fatally stabs him with the needle. Dying, Nani jumps through a lit match and immolates himself. He flies into a loaded cannon, which fires. The projectile passes through Sudeep and hits an oxygen cylinder, killing him in the explosion. Bindu takes the flys wing and makes an amulet with it.

One day when she is on her way to work, an eve teaser bothers her; Nani, again reborn as a fly, attacks him with a needle before he announces his return. The young girl is impressed with the story of the fly her father narrates.
