Thus, he challenges steps in the city and toils day & night for a paycheck. Besides, Chandraiah is a candid & disabled son of wealthy Raghavaiah. Gopalam, his vicious brother-in-law, is Narasimha's cocktail sidekick who forwards a bridal connection for Pavitra. She accepts and splices Chandraiah since her family worsens by starving to death. Pavitra sets foot in her in-law's house when Chadraiah oaths not to touch her until her consent. Step by step, she comprehends her husband's virtue and nears him along with facing the torments of Chandraiah's stepmother, Durga & sibling, Urmila. Moreover, Gopalam looks at her with evil intent. Meanwhile, Kistaiah backs and devastates, conscious of the event, and becomes a rover. Being unbeknownst, he secures Chandraiah against danger but wounds out. So, Chandraiah houses him, which leads to a puzzling pain between the turtle doves. Discerning it, Chandraiah declares that they should be reunited. Once, Gopalam attempts to molest Pavitra in the absence of all when Chandraiah endeavors to safeguard her but is backstabbed. In the interim, everyone appears when Gopalam adversely attributes taint to Pavitra, which Chandraiah reinforces. Hence, Raghavaiah expelled Pavitra when Kishtaiah invited her. Parallelly, it unveils Gopalam's ruse, and Raghavaiah banishes him. Hereupon, Chandraiah meets Pavitra, proclaiming his guiltless aim of conjoining the two. At last, Kishtaiah & Pavitra bows down before Chandraiah's devout soul. Finally, the movie ends with Pavitra proceeding towards Chandraiah and Kishtaiah quitting the village.
