As Raja doesn't know how to write one, Ramachandra helps him. He suggests that Raja should write her a love letter.
Ramachandra meets him and tells him to be practical. Unaware of this, Raja believes that Roja really doesn't like him. But, as she walks towards the train station, her rose drops off. Raja wanted to see if Roja really likes him by asking her to wear a rose on her head. However, things take a turn for the bad when they are both unable to express their feelings about each other due to fated accidents. Again they are both surprised and were speechless when they saw each other. The very next day, Raja meets Roja again in the train station where he usually comes to board the train. They are initially shocked by seeing each other as Roja told him that she is in America and Raja told her that he is in London, although they were both in India and were studying in the same college. As Roja checks her e-mail and sees Raja's photo, Raja enters the Net Cafe where Roja was. They have yet to see each other and thus, they sent their pictures through e-mail to each other. After a brief introduction, Raja and Roja started loving each other. Raja meets Roja ( Sonali Bendre) through the Internet. He brings up his daughter, in a humble manner, all alone after the death of his wife.
But the poor baby dies and this pushes Ramachandra to create the best institute in India, by hard work. Out of his desire to become a student, his mother rents the baby sister for beggars, to pay fees. Ramachandra was born to a poor illiterate family and his father abandoned them after his sister's birth. This was because Ramachandra saw Raja sleeping on the same enclave-side bench, where he had slept without having anything else than the thought of providing quality education to all, 40 years ago. He thinks that he managed to get a seat due to his own abilities. He gains admission for an MBA program at the Ramachandra College in Mumbai, though he was in 41st rank, in admission tests, for the 40 member class, courtesy of the college chairman, Dr.Ramachandra ( Nassar), but he doesn't realize this at first. Three years ago, he reaches Mumbai, where he plans to get admitted into the prestigious Ramachandra College of management, one of the most premier institutes in the nation. Due to insistence, Raja goes into a flash back. Raja talks with a man ( Manivannan in the Tamil version, Anupam Kher in the Hindi version) in the station.

Then the movie resumes at a train station on New Year Day, 1999. Raja heeds his mom's pleas and moves to Mumbai to attend under graduate entrance exam at Ramachandra Institute of Management Studies, the top-most premier b-school in India. Raja's mom begs him to move to Mumbai to start a new life. But he refuses to fund him, and orders him to start work as accountant for their landlord. But, Raja's mother forced his father to let Raja finish high school, without doing any other work. Raja's family struggles to survive hard every day. He spends half of the family's income on alcohol. There, poor boys are made to work from age five, either at factories or farms, so that they can support their families. People from his region consider that "education is meant only for the rich". Raja ( Kunal) is from a very poor, illiterate family, from Tamil Nadu (in the Hindi version he is from Allahabad).
