Chiranjeevi, with his friends, gets hold of the bar manager and in an attempt to teach him a lesson, the dancer dies. Chiru is accused of murder and he does not try to defend himself, as he feels that he needs to be punished for all his misdeeds. His father passes away when Chiru is sentenced to jail.
