Plot

Dr. Pratap works in the Indian army and leads a happy family life with his wife, Janaki, and a baby girl, Sujatha. Once, he is seriously injured on the battlefield when he reveals to Janaki his relationship with a nurse, Lakshmi, and they have a child, too. Before dying, he takes a word from Janaki to protect them. So, she reaches their village, and by then, Lakshmi dies. Hence, Janaki endorses the kid's responsibility to Lakshmi's neighbor Veera Swamy and his wife Parvati by allotting Rs.1 lakh to his nurture. After some time, perturbed, Janaki returns to get back the child with her father, Visweswara Rao. Till then, Veera Swamy leaves. Years rolled by, and actually, devious Veera Swamy fled away, leaving Lakshmi's child as an orphan. Vijay, the nephew of Veera Swamy, a sincere journalist, grows along with his cousin Swapna, who antagonizes Veera Swamy's profession and quits the house. Sujatha, the daughter of Pratap, likes the ideologies of Vijay and falls for him. Besides, Swapna poses herself as the daughter of a millionaire for false prestige. Holding it, Raja, a loaf and partner of Veera Swamy, traps her, being unbeknownst of her identity, and she conceives. Here, Veera Swamy ploys to couple up Swapna with Vijay when he knows his nuptial with Sujatha. So, he attributes culpability to Vijay and stops the wedding. Here, Janaki recognizes Veera Swamy and asks for their child. Now, Veera Swamy forges Raja as their heir to grab the property. Then, Swapna acknowledges him, and Veera Swamy makes a deal to perform their alliance only after succeeding in their plan. At present, Raja enters the house, but Sujatha suspects something fishy. Thereby, with the help of Vijay, she finds Raja's original father, Simhachalam. Accordingly, with a play, they bring out the reality. At last, surprisingly, it revealed that Raja is the heir Veera Swamy had fostered to Simhachalam before leaving the village. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the marriage of Vijay to Sujatha and Raja to Swapna.
