Presently, he moves to the city for higher studies. Thereafter, he didn’t show up or any message to her. Perturbed Subbalakshmi proceeds to the city by lying to her father that she is going on a tour. On her train journey, she is acquainted with a thief Raju who has stolen a diamond necklace that he hides in Subbalakshmi’s bag to sneak from Police. ACP Vikram shadows Raju to recover the necklace. Besides, Raju follows Subbalakshmi like ''white on rice'' for the bag. Therein, he rescues her from several pitfalls and also supports her to find the whereabouts of Prakash Rao. During that time, Raju starts liking her but maintains silence because of her sweetheart towards her cousin. Anyhow, Subbalakshmi succeeds in locating Prakash Rao where she gets blindsided and collapses viewing Prakash Rao’s close intimacy with a tycoon Lavanya. In reality, Prakash Rao is a swindler who exploited Subbalakshmi to hit the top. Presently, he is behind Lavanya’s wealth. At that point, Prakash Rao manipulates the situation, convinces Subbalakshmi, and sends her back when Raju again accompanies her. On the way, Subbalakshmi fortuitously meets Prakash Rao’s friend Prasad who reveals the diabolic shade of his friend. Being cognizant of it, Subbalakshmi tries to commit suicide when Raju bars her and words to teach a lesson to Prakash Rao.

			Right now, spotting Prakash Rao, Raju & Subbalakshmi reaching Jaipur. Herein, Raju turns her into a modern girl. At that juncture, he gets stunned to find the necklace in hands of Subbalakshmi which she has hidden to seek his help. Currently, they make a friendship with Lavanya that frightens Prakash Rao. Moreover, Raju develops a close bond with Lavanya. So, enranged Prakash Rao warns Subbalakshmi, accuses her character, and tries to kill her. However, she is saved by ACP Vikram when she handovers the necklace to him, pleads to quit Raju, and also expresses her present love towards Raju which she hesitated to reveal. Meanwhile, Lavanya necks out Prakash Rao being aware of his true face. So, he reaches Subbalakshmi trying to con her once again but she discards him and moves to her village. At last, Raju learns about Subbalakshmi’s love through ACP Vikram, rushes to the railway station, and confesses that he loves her too.
