Plot[edit]
Pothuraju is a blacksmith living in a remote village near Annavaram. He has a lovable sister, Varam. He runs into some hilarious incidents while searching locally for a groom for his sister. He confides to his friend Narasimha that he wants his sister to be in a good city after her marriage. Pothuraju nods his acceptance when a city guy proposes to Varam. He accompanies the newlyweds to Hyderabad and falls in love with Aishwarya after initial mishaps.
On a trip to Hyderabad, Pothuraju saves a court witness from Tappas Balu, a don dominating central Hyderabad. He also learns of a local don Gutkha Pandu, who controls northern Hyderabad and troubles Varam's husband's canteen business. In an altercation at the Golconda Fort, Narasimha gets murdered by a thug Puranapool Ganga, who dominates southern Hyderabad. Varam's husband told Pothuraju to leave Hyderabad if he wants his sister to be happy. After Narasimha's funeral, he leaves his hometown stating that he got a job in a cloth manufacturing company. In reality, he comes to Hyderabad with a mission.
Pothuraju warns Ganga that the latter will be killed by him. He also calls ACP J. D. Yadav and warns him that he will kill all the dons of Hyderabad, as the police department fails in their duty. Later on, Pothuraju's friend Sairam, who is a police inspector, comes to know about this. Pothuraju Challenges Sairam that he will give up his mission if the latter keeps any one thug of Hyderabad at least for the single day. Sairam fails in his mission and loses his son, as he was killed by Balu.
This harsh lesson makes Sairam help Pothuraju. Sairam details Pothuraju about the entire mafia network of Hyderabad by providing the specification of who leads the various areas. Pothuraju writes their names in papers and randomly chooses Balu. He kills Balu stating that he is not killing, instead 'clearing'. One day Aishwarya meets Pothuraju at the temple and finds that he is not working in any cloth manufacturing company. Pothuraju manages to make Aishwarya believe that he is working in a travels company. Thus, Aishwarya gets a promise from Pothuraju that he should meet her and spend time with her frequently.
Later on, Pothuraju provokes Pandu to kill his own brother by sticking funeral posters of Pandu and making him think that his brother is the person who is killing people all over Hyderabad. After the death of Pandu's brother, Ravi realises his brother is not the one who stuck the funeral posters, so he hides himself in a politician's house to be away from the hands of Pothuraju. The politician damages his own car and house and makes the police believe that someone has attacked his house. The police decides to provide security for the politician. This makes Pandu feel happy, considering that Pothuraju can't come to his place by fooling all these inspectors and kill him. Sairam soon found out that Pandu is hiding in the politician's place.
Pothuraju wants Sairam to disband the police protection, but Sairam refused because it is the responsibility of the police to protect. He can only inform Pothuraju who has to kill Ravi. Later on, Pothuraju brings a group of people who rally due to losing their money to a fraud financier who is hiding in the politician's place. With the rally Pothuraju enters the Pandu's fort and kills him. Yadav inquires the people that involve the rally regarding the identity of Pothuraju. However nobody wants to tell anything because they fell that Pothuraju is doing the police's job while the police do nothing and wait for their salary. Yadav's daughter is willing to die rather than reveal Pothuraju's identity because she was rescued by Pothuraju from Balu.
Later on, Pothuraju decides to kill Ganga and warns him. This makes Ganga seek the protection of mass group of thugs from Hyderabad. He ignites the war between police group and mafia gang in a diplomatic manner. Pothuraju disguises himself as a police inspector and enter's Ganga's fort. Sairam helps Pothuraju in his mission by hurting himself. Yadav orders his squad to hit the thugs.
Pothuraju enters the house in a police uniform, confronts a thug, and forces him to wear a police uniform. After that, Pothuraju shoots and kills the thug and throws him out of the window. Thinking that one of the fellow officers is dead, Yadav orders for open fire. All the thugs were killed, but once they checked the dead 'police officer', they realised that it is Pothuraju's trick and move upstairs to find him. However, Pothuraju already stabbed Ganga and threw him to the ground right before the midnight of the new year. Finally, Pothuraju surrenders to the police and is released from jail after six months.
