Plot

The film begins with a notorious criminal, Mr. V, who titles enormous names with V and hoodwinks the women with nuptials and absconds, forging his death. Besides, Jhansi Rani is a dynamic woman who combats societal offenses. Once she is secured against harm by a cheery fellow, Sriraj, she befriends him. Gradually, intimacy develops, and Sriraj is about to propose but backs it, knowing her love for an advocate, Dinakar. Jhansi has a disabled elder sibling, Sampoorna, and the two are at heart. The elders fix Sampoorna's alliance with a Viswanath, as usual, V, who splices & flees according to his game. Jhansi is absent from the marriage because of inaccessibility, and she returns by comforting her sister.

After a while, Neelakantham, a CBCID officer handling Mr.V's case, approaches Jhansi and divulges the totality, which enrages her—additionally, Sampoorna's suicide probes Jhansi for vengeance. Parallelly, a mysterious individual shadows her. Jhansi starts her investigation by accumulating info from Neelakantam. She also discerns that Sriraj is Mr.V's victim, who hoodwinked his sister, Srilatha. Consequently, they mingle and move further. During the trials, Jhansi faces dice with death by Mr.V, and Sriraj shields her. Jhansi is on the verge of catching Mr.V at a wedding, but he skips out. As a flabbergast, Sriraj unveils himself as Mr.V wanders with Jhansi to play safe. Now, he challenges her to defeat with a strange game. Here, the man behind Jhansi is real Sriraj, the elder of Srilatha, who seeks revenge. Parallelly, Mr.V starts a new chapter as Vital with Radha, the daughter of Advocate Jaganadham, and resolutely confirms the match.

Jhansi is conscious of an artist, Selvarani, mate of another victim, whom she requests to sketch Mr.V's portrait. Being mindful of it, Sriraj slaughters Selvarani and burns the evidence. Fortuitously, one piece remains when Jhansi is astonished, aware of the truth, and furiously steps towards Sriraj. At that point, she discloses Mr.V's dark den, where he preserves the treacherous leads and his current deceit. Ergo, she rushes, onslaughts on Mr.V, and the police apprehend her. However, the judiciary denies all the allegations of the prey due to a lack of proof, which Mr.V demolishes, and he acquits as non-guilty. At last, annoyed, Jhansi shoots Mr.V when he leaves the breath, affirming the actuality, and hails his victory. Finally, the movie ends with Jhansi's proceedings to penalize, and Dinakar vows to wait until she arrives.
