ynopsis

Sambaiah(Chiranjeevi) is a cobbler who raises his dead sister's son Chinna (Arjun/Sirish) while also financing the education of the orphaned Sharada (Sumalatha) with an intention to marry her. When Sharada marries Bhaskar (Sarvadaman Banerjee), Ganga (Vijayashanti) has a tubectomy in order to marry Sambaiah whom she loves so that she would give her undiverted attention to the upbringing of Chinna. Ganga and Sambaiah after initial struggles become wealthy with dedication and hardwork.

Chinna's biological father Govind (Charan Raj) who is a criminal returns from prison and teams up with Ganga's no-good father to make a series of demands on Sambaiah and to claim Chinna's guardianship.
