The plot is based on Kathasaritsagara and Thomas Mann's retelling of 'Transposed Heads'. Hayavadana presents the story of two friends Devdutta and Kaplia; and their love interest Padmini.
Devadatta and Kapila feel a sense of incompletenes after they have each other's bodies joined to their own heads. At first it seems that Devadatta gets the best deal because he has the strengths of both himself and his friend. He gets to keep his own sharp mind, and also has the muscular body of Kapila. Kapila has his own strength of mind but has Davidatta's soft body. He begins to feel incomplete as soon as the switch has occurred. However, when both men start to find that their bodies are returning to their pre-switched state, they still both feel incomplete because they realize that they are living half existences.
