Raghavaiah converts as an alcoholic grieving his wife's death and accuses his daughter Shanta of it. Anyhow, his son Raja dotes on her. After a while, Raghavaiah leaves the kids as orphans when Raja embraces his sibling's charge. Subbamma, a wealthy widow, aids them and becomes a soulmate to her son Raghu. Years roll by and Raja's idolization of Shanta also rises. He takes Raghu's family tasks after his mother's death and civilizes him. Shanta's health is fragile, and she cannot tolerate the slight panic. Thereby, Raja is concerned for her great attention, and he falls for Janaki. After completing the studies, Raghu returns to when Raja is on cloud nine to know Raghu & Shanta's endearment from childhood and knits them. Following this, Raghu acquires a cashier job in a bank and moves to the city. Presently, Raghavaiah grows into a notorious thug who wiles to exchange his counterfeit note by clutching Raghu, but in vain. Ergo, he stabs Raghu, and before leaving his breath, he puts up his statement, unwrapping Raghavaiah. Being conscious of the plight, Raja rushes and collapses. He is afraid of his infirm, pregnant sister. Furthermore, it gives great pain to learn his father is a homicide. As of now, he has flagrantly hidden the tragedy from Shanta inside. Janaki discerns something fishy, seeks the truth, consoles, and advises Raja to be quiet until Shanta delivers. Thus, she desires to live for her baby. Meanwhile, Raghavaiah absconds; unbeknownst to him, he lands at Raja's residence hungry when Shanta feeds him. Whereat, he discovers Shanta is his daughter, and Raghu is her husband with the photographs. Accordingly, he dies out of remorse and surrenders to the police. Concurrently, Shanta is in labor, aspires to view Raghu, and requests Raja to give a call, who blacks out but recoups listening to the cry of a newborn baby. However, tragically, Shanta passes away therein, which devastates Raja, and he attempts suicide as he is left alone. At last, Janaki bars him, stating that he should live for the baby, i.e., Shanta's memory. Finally, the movie ends with Raja & Janaki rearing the baby.
The music was composed by S. Rajeswara Rao.[2] The song "Ee Reyi Theyanadi" is based on the French song "L'amour est bleu".[3]
