Plot
The film begins with two linemen, Sriramulu & Raghavaiah, spotting notorious gangster Ranjit derailing, who fires them. In which Sriramulu dies, and Raghavaiah loses his eyesight. Sriramulu's wife also dies when, out of hunger, their son Vikram turns into a hoodlum and is raised by Ranjit unbeknownst. Years roll by, and Vikram wants to reform when Ranjit assigns him a terminal task to procure precious diamonds and charges his henchmen to eliminate him. Vikram trashes them and silently hands over the diamonds to the Police. Later, Vikram combats with a goon for a woman, which he kills and penalizes. Ranjit is behind him when to protect an officer, SP Rao Vikram, surrenders, and their vehicle blasts, disclosing him as dead.

Now, he decides to start a new journey while traveling on a train. A passenger, Sravan, recognizes him as a criminal by his handcuffs, and Sravan falls into a river in that clash. Vikram lands in a village where a blind couple, Raghavaiah and Sitamma, are waiting for their son's friend Vijay, who assumes Vikram to be him and gives him hospitality. Here, Vikram is acquainted with a girl named Gowri, and they crush each other. Once Vikram learns Raghavaiah is his father's friend and that he can detect the homicide. Besides, Punyakoti, a cheapskate moneylender in the village, pesters Raghavaiah for his debt, and Vikram shields them. After a while, Vikram dies out of remorse, being aware that Sravan is Raghavaiah's son when he divulges the actuality and asks for the penalty.

However, they give pardon, embracing him as their son, and they desire to move on a pilgrimage. So, Vikram tows them along with Gowri, concealing himself from the hunt of Ranjit and the Police. In between, he is shocked to view Sravan alive, amputating one limb, and seeks vengeance. Anyhow, he backs observing his handful to his parents—consequently, Ranjit and the police drop in when Ranjit kidnaps Gowri when Raghavaiah discerns him. Thus far, Police surround, but Vikram's breakout ceases Ranjit. At last, Vikram surrenders, and the judiciary, he argues it is a crime of hunger when they understand his uprightness and acquit him. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the marriage of Vikram & Gowri.
