Plot
The film begins in a village where President Kesava Rao, a most revered toils to enhance a more significant life for the public. He resides with his ideal wife, Sita, and younger Venu, who adores them. Besides, sly Viswaroopam & his shrew wife Bhadramma holds groceries and conducts malpractice. To thwart it, Kesava Rao opens a government store that begrudges them. Hence, Bhadramma always affronts Sita as sterile, which perturbs her as childless. Meanwhile, Venu loves and knits a benevolent Lalitha, the daughter of Viswaroopam. Sita & Lalitha are cordial, and they build a merry world. The two conceive and deliver at once when Sita is blessed with a baby boy, but Lalitha miscarries. During that plight, Kesava Rao & Sita substituted their baby. From there, friction arises in the family, signifying a split. Herein, Viswaroopam & Bhadramma are in cahoots and instigate Venu to seek his share, which Lalita prompts. At which, Kesava Rao collapses and entrusts totality to Venu. Parallelly, the boy is injured and loses blood, and Venu & Lalitha's blood group is unsuitable. Ergo, Sita intervenes but is hindered by Viswaroopam & Bhadramma when the doctor affirms the actuality. At last, Venu & Lalitha repent and retrieve the child. Finally, the movie ends happily.
