==Plot==
The film begins with a millionaire who lives happily with his son Ananda Rao and daughter Rajyalakshmi. Rajyalakshmi knits a pleb, and Bhanu Murthy maliciously defrauds a massive amount from the company with his brother Ramachandra Murthy. Dhananjay Rao, the true-blue of Ananda Rao, detects it. So, they slaughter Ananda Rao and incriminate Dhananjay Rao with the aid of sidekick Gurrala Gurunatham. Rajyalakshmi discerns it, but Bhanu Murthy plots by declaring her a lunatic and having her sealed in the mental asylum. Due to the mortifications, Dhananjay Rao's wife, Parvati, leaves with her two children. Years roll by, and Vani, the daughter of Ananda Rao, becomes the heir of the property guarded by Bhanu Murthy & Ramachandra Murthy. Here, they are intrigued to couple her with one of their sons, Seshagiri & Raja, respectively. Seshagiri is a scoundrel, whereas Raja is a good egg. He falls for Gurunatham's daughter Rani.

Meanwhile, Chakravarthy, a simpleton, is a newly appointed lecturer in Vani's college whom she endears and nuptials. Soon after, Chakravarthy reveals himself as the Dhananjay Rao's son, who made a play to seize the knaves. Moreover, Seshagiri only hoodwinked his sister Seeta. As of today, Chakravarthy starts his play, retrieves Rajyalakshmi, and recruits Seeta as her caretaker. Later, the blackguards discover the actuality and wiles by creating turbulence between Chakravarthy & Vani. At last, Chakravarthy ceases them with the help of Raja & Rani, proves his father's non-guilty, and reforms Seshagiri. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the reunion of the entire family.
