Plot
Jayanth (N. T. Rama Rao) is a truthful and honest gentleman. Under his guidance, his close friends Ravi (Rama Krishna), Chandrika (Prabha), and younger brother Kiran (Krishnam Raju) become policemen, Lawyers, and journalists respectively. Jayanth works as a security officer in a temple, which is headed by trustee Ramadasu (Prabhakar Reddy) whose younger brother Bhujangam (again Prabhakar Reddy) is a huge gangster and smuggles the idols of Indian Gods. Bhushaiah (Nagabhushanam) & Seshayya (Allu Ramalingaiah) are their partners. Ravi is the son of Bhushiah and Sheshiah's daughter is Dr. Neelima (Padmapriya) Jayanth's love interest. Ravi & Chandrika also love each other. Meanwhile, Jayanth identifies the fraudulence taking place in the temple but at the request of Ramadasu maintains silence and makes resigns. Thereafter, Jayanth joins trade union leader at Bhujangam's factory where too, he fights for the welfare of the workers and develops enmity with the management. On the other side, Kiran brings out all the atrocities in the factory through his news articles. So, Bhujangam deceits Jayanth by indicting him and sends jail. In jail, he gets acquainted with a goon Gangulu (Satyanarayana) and both of them become friends when Jayanth understands that tit for tat is the only way to teach a lesson to this society. Parallelly, Ravi, Kiran, Chandrika, and Neelima prove his innocence of Jayanth and get him released. At the same time, Bhujangam blasts the Kiran's press in which Jayanth's sister dies. Here Jayanth decides to take revenge against society, so, he joins Gangulu and becomes a gangster. Meanwhile, Ravi & Kiran suspect and chases him.
