Once upon a time, there was a kingdom, its King Mahavira (C.S.R.) announces Swayamvaram i.e. one's own choice of selecting bride to his son Prince Raja Shekara (Akkineni Nageswara Rao), without his wish. Princesses of various kingdoms arrive for the ceremony, where Raja Shekara makes 3 conditions for them. The bride should build a diamond palace for him without the help of her parents or in-laws, she should become pregnant with him without his knowledge, and she should allow him to marry the girl he loves. Princess Manohari (Anjali Devi) agrees to it and marries him. Soon after, Raja Shekara reaches Pakshirajyam along with his friend Ammanna (Relangi), where he falls in love with Pakshiraja's daughter Komali (Girija) and in her association, he forgets Manohari.

Meanwhile, she finds the whereabouts of Raja Shekara and immediately reaches Pakshirajyam along with her friend Rani (Surya Prabha), where its commander in chief Dandayya mistakes Rani as the Queen and Manohari as the maid. As Dandayya is attracted to Rani, he requests Manohari to make acquaintance with the Queen, then Manohari makes a condition to build a diamond Palace for her and he does so.
At the same time, Pakshiraja suffers from an ulcer on his back which does not heal from any treatment, so, he announces that whoever gets medicine for it, will make his daughter's marriage with him.
