Vijaya), and Satya (Rajyalakshmi), 1 daughter Poorna (Varalakshmi), and a grandson Gopi (Master Rajesh). Gopi is sweetest to both Chandraiah and Ramakrishna and he too strongly bonded with him. Besides, Suraiah (Satyanarayana) a deleterious and always begrudges Chandraiah. Yet, benevolent Chandraiah knitted his elder daughter Satya with Prasad. Ramakrishna is a gallant who always accepts the challenges, and triumphs which perturbs his father. Meanwhile, Suraiah carries several barbarities in the village, and to escape he purports devils on the outskirts. Latha (Suhasini) the younger daughter of Suraiah arrives from the city. Initially, she squabbles with Ramakrishna but afterward, they fall in love. In tandem, Delhi Babai (Nutan Prasad) a sly political broker mingles with Suraiah and makes Chandraiah resign with a foul play. Despite, Chandraiah redoes in the election and wins with the highest majority when Suraiah flares-up with vengeance. At the same time, Chandraiah fixes a fine alliance for Poorna. Just before, the wedding, Papa Rao (Raj Varma) son of Suraiah, tries to molest Poorna when Ramakrishna rescues her with the help of Latha and stabs Papa Rao in that brawl. Exploiting it, Suraiah inculpates him in murder offense and sullies on Poorna's chastity. In the court, Ramakrishna maintains silence to protect his honor but Latha divulges the reality and acquits him. Unfortunately, Poorna's husband Venu (Ramji) and in-laws misinterpret and chuck her.
