Plot

The film begins with a millionaire who lives happily with his son Ananda Rao and daughter Rajyalakshmi. Rajyalakshmi knits a pleb, and Bhanu Murthy maliciously defrauds a massive amount from the company with his brother Ramachandra Murthy. Dhananjay Rao, the true-blue of Ananda Rao, detects it. So, they slaughter Ananda Rao and incriminate Dhananjay Rao with the aid of sidekick Gurrala Gurunatham. Rajyalakshmi discerns it, but Bhanu Murthy plots by declaring her a lunatic and having her sealed in the mental asylum. Due to the mortifications, Dhananjay Rao's wife, Parvati, leaves with her two children. Years roll by, and Vani, the daughter of Ananda Rao, becomes the heir of the property guarded by Bhanu Murthy & Ramachandra Murthy. Here, they are intrigued to couple her with one of their sons, Seshagiri & Raja, respectively. Seshagiri is a scoundrel, whereas Raja is a good egg. He falls for Gurunatham's daughter Rani.
