Synopsis

Adv. Raja, the younger son of S. P. Chakradhara Rao and Dr. Saraswati Devi, happens to save Shankarayya from the goons of a wicked Veera Swamy and later defends him in the court when he is wrongly framed of attempting to murder Veera Swamy thereby facing his own brother, Ramu in the court and eventually emerging victorious. He later falls in love with Gowri, Shankarayya's daughter much to his mother's chargin as he was expected to marry Kalyani. She even threatens Gowri to back off. Meanwhile, Gowri's cousin Narahari, an ex-military officer, who has an insatiable lust for her is enraged upon knowing her relation with Raja. With the help of Veera Swamy he murders Shankarayya and manages to put the blame on Saraswati Devi. Chakradhara Rao who witnesses his wife removing the murder weapon from Shankarayya's body while trying to save him misinterprets her intentions and arrest her. An enraged and embarrassed Raja now takes it upon himself to prove his mother's innocence forcing him to have a face off with his own brother, Ramu, once again since he happens to be the public prosecutor. With the help of a CBI officer who was masquerading as a blind man he not only brings the real culprits — Narahari and Veera Swamy to justice but also helps his father in proving that these two knaves are responsible for the illegal manufacture of local bombs. He reunites his family and marries Gowri with his mother's consent.
