So, Ranga stands on his own and raises his sister Padma (Vijaya Nirmala) with a lot of love & affection. On the other side, Dharma Rao & Chalapathi become big shots, poses themselves as respectable people, and counterfeit showing adoration towards Purushotham. At present, Padma loves and espouses Dr.Prasad (Shobhan Babu) who happens to be Purushotham's son. Being aware of it, Narasimhulu (Chalam) brother of Venkatalakshmi keeps a grudge as he aspires to marry Padma and divulges the fact to Prasad's mother (Malathi).
