A rich brat (Tanishq Reddy) answers a call and continues to drive his car against the rules. When a traffic constable stops him, the man offers a bribe of 500. On a parallel note, a student is unable to write her exams, and her friend offers her an additional sheet for copying the answers. On another note, a kid drinks a cool drink and drops the paper cup near a dust bin and walks away with his father only to halt after a small distance. On the other hand, Allu Arjun attends a public meeting without allowing the security to check him.
However, Allu Arjun soon realizes his mistake, and lets the security check him. Then, there is a realization from the traffic constable, who fines Tanishq Reddy. The boy also realizes his mistake and drops the cup in the dustbin. The girl in the examination refuses to copy the answers from the additional sheet, and they do their duties without indulging in corruption and anti-socialism. The short film ends with Allu Arjun conveying the message, "Performing one's duty is a form of patriotism. Change begins with us. I am that change. Be that change", with the other three saying, "I am that change".
