Plot



The film begins in a village where President Kesava Rao (N. T. Rama Rao) lives with his wife Seeta (Savitri) and younger brother Venu (Ram Mohan), who adores them. Kesava Rao dedicated his time to improving the village. Besides, Viswaroopam (Nagabhushanam) holds a grocery store and makes malpractice when Kesava Rao opens a government store that begrudges him and his wife Bhadramma (Chaya Devi). Here Bhadramma always affronts Seeta as sterile. Meanwhile, Venu loves and marries Lalitha (Kanchana), the benevolent daughter of Viswaroopam. Seeta and Lalitha are cordial and they build a jaunty world. The two conceive and deliver at once when Seeta is blessed with a baby boy, but Lalitha miscarries. During that plight, Kesava Rao and Seeta substitute their baby to safeguard Lalitha. Thereafter, discords arise in the family. Exploiting it, Viswaroopam and Bhadramma force Venu for their share. Listening to it, Kesava Rao collapses, surrenders to Venu, and quits. At the same time, the boy is injured and loses blood, and Venu and Lalitha's blood group is unsuitable. During that plight, Seeta intervenes but is hindered by Viswaroopam and Bhadramma, but the doctor affirms the actuality. At last, Venu and Lalitha repent and return the child. The family finally reunites.
