The story starts with Chandu (played by Siddharth) and Siri (played by Shruti Haasan), who are very close friends. They have nicknames for each other, “Faltoos” and “Killer.” Chandu goes to Mumbai for an MBA, but he’s passionate about music. When he returns, his family isn’t happy about his choice, so Siri takes on the responsibility of managing his music career.
Things get complicated when Uday (Navdeep) expresses his love for Siri. Seeking advice from Chandu, Siri finds herself caught in a mix of emotions. At the same time, Chandu meets Ritu Sharma (Hansika) in college, and he falls in love with her instantly.
Chandu tries hard to impress Ritu, unintentionally neglecting Siri, which hurts her deeply. Feeling abandoned, Siri decides to leave for a dancing school in Chennai. However, Chandu realizes his mistake just as Uday returns from the US to surprise Siri, changing her decision to leave.
The story unfolds further at the Airtel music competition in Kochi, where Chandu’s musical success highlights the strong bond between him and Siri. Jealousy arises, especially from Uday, leading to a difficult decision for him.
Uday, feeling threatened and struggling with his emotions, decides to break up with Siri and asks her to choose between him and Chandu. Chandu’s father supports Uday, encouraging them to recognize the potential love between Chandu and Siri. Chandu insists that their friendship is special and can’t turn into romantic love. He convinces Uday to marry Siri, making a strong commitment.
The movie ends with Siri giving birth to Uday’s child. Chandu and Ritu, now married, visit them at the hospital. Uday, realizing his mistake and acknowledging the enduring friendship between Chandu and Siri, encourages them to rekindle their bond. The four friends, along with Siri and Uday’s baby, leave the hospital together, symbolizing a happy resolution to the emotional journey in “Oh My Friend.”
In summary, the film beautifully explores the complexities of relationships, showing how friendship and love evolve through challenges and sacrifices. “Oh My Friend” celebrates the lasting nature of true friendships, proving that some bonds remain unbreakable, even in the face of romantic complications and societal expectations.
