==Plot==<br />
Babu (Nikhil Siddharth), an orphan raised by his uncle and aunt, believes that they have swindled his property. After an argument with his uncle, he leaves home and moves to Hyderabad to stay with his friends, whom he trusts. Babu is kindhearted and believes in spreading happiness. He accidentally meets Baby (Aksha), and they become good friends. Whenever she feels lonely, Babu and his three close friends—software engineer Ajay (Randhir Gattla), security guard Kiran (Utkam Rudhraksh), and assistant film director Subbu—cheer her up.<br />
<br />
One day, during Baby’s birthday celebration, some goons harass her, and Babu confronts them. Later, they seek revenge, and in the ensuing clash, Subbu suffers severe injuries. The doctor demands ₹5 [[lakh]] for his surgery, prompting Babu to borrow money from a moneylender named Laddu (Narsing Yadav) on the condition that he repays it within a week. However, they fail to gather the required amount and request two more days. To arrange the money, Babu and Ajay attempt to rob a bank but get framed for a crime they did not commit. They suspect Kiran's involvement in setting them up and end up in jail.<br />
<br />
While in prison, Babu befriends the jailer (Jaya Prakash Reddy) and a notorious criminal, Nannanna (Sayaji Shinde). Meanwhile, a gangster named Sonu Seth (Jeeva) intervenes and secures their release. Babu and his friends soon discover that a criminal named Nayeem was actually behind the bank robbery. Suspecting a link between Nannanna and Nayeem, Babu seeks his help, and Nannanna agrees. Eventually, the court rules that Nayeem is the real culprit.<br />
<br />
Babu, Ajay, and Kiran surrender themselves along with the stolen money in court. However, since they had previously escaped from jail, they are sentenced to six months in prison. The film concludes on a happy note with the reunion of the four friends and Baby.<br />
