Plot
The film begins in a village where fierce rivalry is upheld between the families of Chalasi Rayudu and Neelakantam. It continues between their heirs, Surya Prakash / SP & Bhavani. Plus, the feud hits the roof when SP triumphs over Bhavani and revives his property when she vows to destroy him. SP is a chronic bachelor who hates love & women and stays opposite a women’s hostel. Therein, he only cares about a girl named Sandhya, to which she is unbeknownst. Bhama, an impish girl, is a new admission in the hostel and falls for SP at first sight. From there, she chases and perturbs SP with her annoyance to receive his love but fails. Parallelly, Srikumar is a casanova, the son of SP’s maternal uncle, Seetaramaiah, who nurtured him. SP assures his uncle to reform Sri. So, he nails the guy and his sidekick Errababu with him. Anguished, Sri tries to get out, but he backs after viewing Sandhya, whom he truly loves. Now, Sri & Bhama mingle to support each other. After a few comic scenes, Bhama discovers SP as Sandhya’s sponsor and questions him. Then, he proclaims Sandhya as his half-sister and rearwards.

Twenty years ago, his father, Rayudu, was an arbitrator in their village. Before his marriage, he secretly wedlocks a woman, Ramalakshmi, and they have two progeny, Shekar & Sandhya. Exploiting it, Neelamkantam seeks to scandal Rayudu as vengeance. To shield Rayudu’s honor, Ramalakshmi untruths when Shekar humiliates, quits, and becomes a wanderer. Surprisingly, SP & Bhavani are fond of each other at that hour. SP’s sister Lakshmi and Bhavani’s cousin Vishnu are also in love. Taking this into account, Neelakantam counterfeits by slaughtering Vishnu and incriminates Rayudu, which ends with his suicide. In addition, Neelakantam grabs their property when SP flares up on him. As a result, a confrontation arises between SP & Bhavani. Moreover, SP proceeds to revive his stepmother’s family, but spotting her hatred towards him, he leaves behind and still silently looks after Sandhya.

Being aware of it, Bhama promises to help SP. Firstly, she brings Sandhya nearer to SP by revealing him as her sponsor and arranging her birthday. Shockingly, Bhama divulged as Bhavani’s sister who reviles SP for snaring her sister. Accordingly, she hinders and seizes Bhama but skips through Sri as the medium. Later, SP grasps Sri & Sandhya's love affair and the changed form of Sri. Hence, he decides to knit them, which Sri’s parents reject as Sandhya is an orphan. Whereon SP breaks out the fact, which Sandhya overhears. Despite that, she shows love to her brother.

During the engagement, Neelakantam arrives along with SP’s enraged elder brother, Shekar, who resembles their father. Shekar takes Sandhya back by force and fixes her alliance with Bhavani’s brother Ravindra, as he is oblivious to Neetakantam’s ploy. Here, SP vows to unite Sri & Sandhya and wipe off everyone who stands in the way. On the wedding day, a brawl erupts between the siblings, which is paused by Sandhya claiming that she cares about both. Immediately, SP discloses the diabolic shade of Neelakantam and proves his father as righteous, which makes Sheker realize. Hearing this, Bhavani attempts suicide when SP rescues her, and they reunite. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the marriages of SP & Bhavani and Srikumar & Sandhya.
