'''Sridhar''', the elder son of a widowed landlord, runs away from his native after being harshly punished by his father causing the landlored to remarry to ensure maternal affection for his younger son, '''Giridhar'''. Years later '''Sridhar''' returns back from [[Delhi]] as an arragont and spoilt young man who has no respect for fellow human beings and considers his step-mother, '''Savitri''', as his nemesis much to the anger of '''Giridhar''' who loves her. '''Sridhar''' wishes to get his share of property which ends in minor disputes between the brothers. During one such dispute '''Sridhar''' is stabbed to death and '''Giridhar''' is arrested since the knife had his fingerprints. Despite his pleas, the court refuses to believe him and awards him death sentence. Deeply affected by the turn of events '''Savitri''' relocates to the house of her husband's friend in [[Bangalore]] where she runs across its caretaker, '''Seshgiri''', who happens to be an old servant of her husband. After receiving a [[trunk call]] from her lawyer, they travel to the nearby private hospital and gets to know that '''Giridhar''' got a mild [[heart attack]] the day before. She explains the things to '''Seshgiri'''. The next day they receive a letter from a woman named '''Rani''' who addresses herself as the wife of '''Sridhar''' who is unaware of her husband's death. After revealing the news of her husband's death, '''Savitri''' decides to transfer the wealth to her name. However, when they go for a walk the next day a man from Mercara recognises '''Rani''' as '''Shakuntala'''. Despite her claims of it being a case of mistaken identity, '''Seshgiri''' smells something fishy and asks her to bring her elder brother who resides in Mercara to prove her identity. '''Savitri''''s brother happens to be '''Seetharam''' who is upset over his daughter's disappearance. He is surprised to know that the woman claiming to be '''Rani''' is indeed '''Shakuntala''' whom he had molested a few years back but doesn't reveal the truth after she secretly informs '''Seetharam''' that his daughter, '''Bhaama''' is under her custody. The next day, after collecting the address of '''Bhaama''''s residence, '''Seetharam''' travels to that house only to meet '''Shekhar'''. '''Bhaama''' suddenly appears from a room refusing to go with him since she believes he has some role in the death of '''Sridhar'''. In a flashback it is revealed that someone threw a knife at '''Sridhar''' thereby killing him which was supervised by '''Seetharam''' from a safe distance. The entire incidents were witnessed by '''Bhaama''' causing her to develop fear for knives. Coming to the present, '''Shekhar''' sends him back after mentioning about how he also knows about '''Seetharam''''s elder brother's involvement in the murder.

Upon returning to his house he finds that '''Seshgiri''' has similarity to Shekhar and suspects his identity. He immediately phones his elder brother and asks him to come to sort out the confusion. The elder brother who arrives the next day itself happens to be '''Rajaram''' who is shocked at the similarity that '''Seshgiri''' has to '''Vijay'''. He decides to bring '''Prema''' to crack the identity of '''Seshgiri'''. Even when that fails , the brothers decide to hire a group of [[goonda|gundas]] to kidnap '''Rani''' only for them to wrongly kidnap '''Prema'''. '''Rajaram''' soon receives an anonymous phone call informing him of his daughter's location and goes there with '''Shrikant''' and a few goons. There they are greeted by '''Inspector Vijay''' who subdues the goons while '''Prema''' bursts out to her father for his involvement in '''Sridhar''''s murder. '''Vijay''' reveals that he is in charge of the '''"Sridhar Murder Case"''' and threatens to expose his identity before everyone.
