Plot
Rajeev (Jagapati Babu) is the owner of Raksha Construction Company. He lives happily with his wife Aarthi (Kalyani), their two children Rahul (Master Athulith) and Raksha (Baby Neha), and his mother (Radha Kumari). Rajeev has immense affection for Raksha. Rajeev's close friend Venu (Rajiv Kanakala) and his wife Madhu (Satya Krishnan) work as employees in Rajeev's company. Rajeev provides each and every facility and treats them as his own family members.
Rajeev is an atheist, but his wife and mother have immense belief in god and black magic (Chethabadalu). On a regular day of his work at the construction site, Shyam (Narsing Yadav), his assistant, reports the finding of an ancient Ganesh idol. He also advises Rajeev to construct a temple to Ganesh and says if not built, it will be a bad omen for them. However, Rajeev takes heads deaf to his words. One day, Rajeev comes to know that Venu and Madhu are big cheaters who have made a big fraud in his company, through his friend Vinay (Subbaraju). Rajeev insults them before everyone and kicks them out of his company.
After this incident, suddenly on an uneventful day, strange things happen in Rajeev's house, and Raksha starts behaving unusually. Rajeev's mother and wife plead to him to overlook the unforeseen circumstances, but he will not listen to them. When Raksha's health level starts deteriorating, Rajeev takes her to a psychiatrist, Dr. Rangarajan (Jeeva), but Rangarajan was tongue-tied and unable to explain the changes that are happening to Raksha. With all the doors closed, a specialist in psychology, Dr. Seema (Jayasudha), makes her entry. Finally, Rajeev starts believing in miracles and black magic. Vinay takes him to a black magician named Baba (Pradeep Rawat) and finds out that it was black magic done by Venu and Madhu, and Mani (Chatrapathi Sekhar), Rajeev's car driver, is helping them.
The remaining story is how Rajeev saves Raksha from the menace.
