Plot

Pawan Kalyan is a careless and spoiled son of a rich man, Muddu Krishnayya. Kalyan has every weakness that a rich and careless youth can have, and Baburao helps him in all his activities. Once, Kalyan and his friend/employee Bhaskar attend a function where Kalyan spots Sirisha singing on stage. He is impressed by her beauty and tries to woo her but doesn't succeed. At the same time, Bhaskar, too, is impressed by her and expresses his love to her but is rejected by Sirisha. A disheartened Bhaskar tries to commit suicide but is saved.

Sirisha accepts his love and leaves to see her mother to seek her blessings for their wedding. However, her mother tries to marry her off to her cousin, Sriram. Sirisha writes a letter to Bhaskar to take her away and save her from this marriage. Kalyan is shocked when he learns that Bhaskar is in love with the same Sirisha who rejected him but agrees to bring her. Kalyan manages to bring Sirisha to Bhaskar's house, but Bhaskar's parents oppose this marriage by insulting Sirisha. Kalyan loses his temper and hits Bhaskar's father, adding fuel to the fire. A disheartened Sirisha leaves their house but is saved by Kalyan and taken to his house.

His father and servant, Malli, suspect their relationship, and this suspicion spreads among Kalyan's friends. Sirisha accuses Kalyan of the rumors, and this brings about a change in Kalyan's attitude towards women and his life. He decides to marry Sirisha and asks his father to help him in this regard. However, his father insults her, and she returns to her mother. Kalyan, after learning of his father's mistake, reaches Sirisha's house but is discouraged by her cousin and mother. He goes on a hunger strike until she accepts his love. In the end, Muddu Krishnayya apologizes for his mistake and unites the lovers.
