### Plot

Ashwin, an aspiring filmmaker, believes he has found perfect love, but his emotional blindness drives Meera away. Heartbroken, he pours his pain into a film script, and while pitching it to the actor Vishnu Vishal, he questions whether he wants that ending for his own story.<sup>[13](https://in.bookmyshow.com/movies/then/oho-enthan-baby/ET00452066)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[8](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/oho_enthan_baby)</sup> The film uses a story-within-story structure: Ashwin narrates his own relationship as a script, and his flashbacks trace three stages of his love life, a school romance, a college relationship, and the mature relationship with Meera that forms the film's emotional core.<sup>[14](https://venkatarangan.com/blog/2025/07/oho-enthan-baby-2025-is-heartfelt-but-uneven/)</sup>
