In a village, a nave girl Lakshmi (Anjali Devi) loves a devious and materialistic person Dharmaraju (Jaggayya) and her grandfather Parandhamaiah (Perumallu) fixes their alliance. At the same time, Dharmaraju's maternal uncle Raghunatha Rao (Dhulipala) a millionaire, aspires to couple up his daughter with him. By the time, Lakshmi is pregnant, so, Dharmaraju ploys with his friend Nagabhushanam (Rajanala) and denounces Lakshmi as a slut before villagers. The one leads to the death of Parandhamaiah and Lakshmi is ostracized from the village. Right now, Dr. Dayanidhi (Gummadi) a humanitarian shields her when she gives birth to a baby boy Gopi. At Present, Lakshmi is scared out of society when Dayanidhi adopts Gopi and Lakshmi stays behind as governess. Years roll by, and Gopi (Akkineni Nageswara Rao) grows up under the pampering of Dayanidhi and treats Lakshmi as a servant. In college, he falls for a charming girl Madhavi (Lakshmi), the daughter of Nagabhushanam. Being cognizant of it, everyone accepts their espousal, apart from Lakshmi as Nagabhushanam is responsible for her plights. At that moment, enraged Gopi necks her out when Dayanidhi is afflicted. Before dying, he reveals the birth secret of Gopi when he aims to prove his mother's chastity. Thereafter, Gopi lands at the village and starts his play against Dharmaraju & Nagabhushanam with the help of Madhavi. Ultimately, he succeeds to confess their guilt before the villagers. At last, reformed Dharmaraju affirms Lakshmi as his wife and she too announces Gopi as their son. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the marriage of Gopi & Madhavi.
