One night, some jewels were stolen from Mohan Rao's house. Police arrest Shankarappa, while trying to hock the jewels in Marwari's shop. But Parvathi, who doesn't know that her husband is a thief runs to Sushilamma to seek help and advice. Here she comes to know that her husband has stolen the jewels from the very persons from whom she sought solace. She begs Mohan Rao to save her husband from prison. Mohan Rao, overcome with pity, informs the police that the complaint given was wrong and that his wife had given the jewels to them without his knowledge. But Shankarappa doesn't leave his old ways. In the end, he and his wife are arrested on a charge of murder and dacoity and convicted.

Hearing of this, Sushilamma tries to meet Parvathi; but is unsuccessful. She then learns that her daughter Sarasa has been left at orphanage, goes there and brings her home.
