Plot

The film begins at Pulicherla Rayalaseema, where MLA Goud, a malicious, tyrannizes his constitution. Once, a senior journalist exposes his crimes, and Goud ruthlessly butchers him as a warning to detractors. Being conscious of it, the journalist's son Murari hurried back from the city and sought vengeance. He perfectly makes an attack profile to assassinate MLA Goud and close upon execution. At that point, a wicked cop, Jagapati, the foster and true blue of Goud lands, shields him and slays Murari publicly. The incident throws Murari’s family into severe catastrophe, leaving his mother & sister as alone souls. After a while, Lavanya, an alacrity, arrives new to the town and develops close intimacy with Murari's family. In the first instance itself, Jagapati allures her when she, too, induces his intention, and he candidly loves her.

Suddenly, Jagapati is conscious as Lavanya is a married lady. In that rage, he moves toward her and is startled to see her as a widow. As a flabbergast, Lavanya states that he is guilty of this situation and why she is so since she is the wife of Murari. Lavanya exploited love as a weapon against Jagapati to know the pain of losing the beloved. Parallelly, Lavanya starts divulging about their love affair to her mother-in-law. Murari & Lavanya liked each other in their college days. However, Lavanya faces severe harassment from her debauched maternal uncle, C.I.Manipal, who aspires to possess her. Therefore, to relieve her from his evil clutches, Murari knitted Lavanya silently. Listening to it, Murari's mother feels happy for owing such a daughter-in-law.

Now, soul-searching begins inside Jagapati, which entails repenting, regretting, and reforming. Then, he becomes stout-hearted and encounters the atrocities in his terrain. Above all, he files the case against himself for the homicide of Murari and also produces the witnesses. Besides, Jagapati knows that Goud's son Ravi & Murari's sister Lalitha are turtle doves. Hence, he wedlocks them, opposing his master when Goud rivals Jagapati. Spotting his transformation, Lavanya endears Jagapati. Eventually, Murari's mother also affirms him as her son and asks to espouse Lavanya. Meanwhile, incensed Goud mingles with Manipal and gets him down on deputation to his region. The two seize and break Jagapati down, and Manipal approaches forcibly to marry Lavanya. At last, Jagapati freaks out, ceases the blackguard, and surrenders before the judiciary. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note, with the court giving a short-term penalty to Jagapati and Lavanya, proclaiming to wait until his arrival.
