==Plot==
Sambayya ([[Chiranjeevi]]) is a [[Shoemaking|cobbler]] who raises his late sister's son Chinna (Arjun/Sirish) while also financing the education of the orphaned Sarada ([[Sumalatha]]). He also nurses a love crush and intends to marry her someday.
In a turn of events, Sarada marries Bhaskar ([[Sarvadaman D. Banerjee|Sarvadaman Banerjee]]) and Ganga ([[Vijayashanti]]) who has also nursed a love towards Sambayya, has a tubectomy in order to marry Sambayya. She does it so that she would be a completely dedicated mother to Chinna. After initial struggles, Ganga and Sambayya own a shoe business and become wealthy.

Chinna's actual father Govind ([[Charan Raj]]) who is a criminal returns from prison and teams up with Ganga's father (a no-good father, role with villain shades) to make a series of demands on Sambayya and to claim Chinna's guardianship.

Eventually, Chinna rebels against his father and both he and Sambayya return to latter's modest original profession of cobbler.
