Plot

Suhasini (Suhasini) is a poor woman who has a younger brother and two sisters along with an irresponsible drunk father. Her elder sister (Sangeetha) is the breadwinner of the family. Suhasini studies for a law degree with the hard-earned money of her sister and she prepares to marry an older person so that she would get a sum of 10,000 rupees. Shankar (Bhanuchander), an advocate incidentally arrives in this scene and finds her self-respect for Suhasini to be quite admirable. In a dramatic situation, he marries Suhasini in humanitarian value. Shankar's mother Lakshmi is an extremely money-minded woman and plans to get his son married for a high dowry. She gets shocked by this marriage and starts despising her daughter-in-law. Her husband (Prabhakara Reddy) is a very good gentleman who likes the good nature of Suhasini and her presence of mind. But the money-minded mother-in-law plans to create a rift between Suhasini and Shankar when the former goes on a tour to Delhi. The couple also has a son, but the mother-in-law is so evil that she does not allow Suhasini to look after her orphaned siblings when the elder sister dies. Things change in such a way that Suhasini had to leave the in-law's house to rescue her siblings. A lawyer friend Surya Prakash Rao (Rajendra Prasad) helps Suhasini in pursuing her law profession and their friendship is mistaken by Shankar. The rest of the film is about how Suhasini proves to be a responsible woman and a successful lawyer. The film ends on a happy note with the clearing of misunderstandings between the lead characters.
