Plot

The film begins in a village where Kittayya, an advent devotee of Krishna, calls him Kannayya out of adoration. He constantly bars the barbarities of his malicious maternal uncle, Bangaraiah, as they have a family feud. Kittayya's mother, Janakamma, is sworn to knit Bangaraiah's daughter Saroja with him to hit her brother's conceit. Saroja, a vainglory, returns from abroad when Kittayya mocks her. As a vengeance, Bangaraiah publicly mortifies them with a slick trick. Janakamma attempts suicide out of shame when Kittayya oaths her to make Bangaraiah bow down. Annoyed, Kittayya accuses & rebukes the Lord, and the words reach Krishna / Kannayya in Vaikuntha. Ergo, Kannayya, identical to Kittayya, is alarmed and sets foot on the Earth. Kishtaiah becomes overwhelmed by seeing him, but he is of others' sight. From there, Kannayya guides Kittayya, and he makes separate steps to win Saroja's heart. Ultimately, Kittayya triumphs when he secures her against danger. Discerning it, Bangaraiah wiles various pawns, such as seeking to slay Kittayya, incriminating him in a so-called robbery, etc. At all stages, Kannayya shields him when Kittayya takes a vow from the Lord to stay in his attire until his wedlock to counterstrike Bangaraiah.
