Ramakrishna, aka Rakhi, aspires to become a railway stationmaster like his father. His love interest and close friend, Tripura, is a reporter on a TV channel who exposes atrocities against women in society. For Rakhi, his sister Gayathri is everything. She is married to a software professional who plans to go to the USA. However, his uncle brought a proposal where he would get 1 crore as a dowry. At first, they try to get rid of her by fighting with Rakhi and demanding more dowry, but when Gayathri overhears them, they burn her alive. Devastated by this, as she was also pregnant, Rakhi's family tried to sue them in court, but a corrupt lawyer, a policeman, and a doctor fabricated that Gayathri was mentally disturbed and had committed suicide. Rakhi was unable to accept this. Tripura calls Rakhi's father and grandfather for the second hearing of the case.
