Garupmantha Rao tries to kill Krishna also, but unfortunately Balaram is separated from his family, and is assumed dead. Nagamani looks after Krishna and Jyoti. After 20 years, Krishna Prasad (Venkatesh) falls in love with his college friend Radha (Amala). Raghu (Sudhakar), son of Garupmantha Rao becomes a local goon, protected by his dad by bribing the local police Inspector P.K. Pathi (Giri Babu). Jyoti (Poornima) is raped and murdered by Raghu and his pals, and they also run over Nagamani, rendering her crippled. Both Krishna and Nagamani swear to avenge Jyoti's death.
