Ramaiah is a horse-cart driver, his wife Lakshmi works as a maid at Zamindar Badrinath, and the couple has a son, Subbadu. Since Badrinath is perturbed as childless, he decides to remarry. At this, his ruffled wife, Parvatamma, enacts a fake pregnancy under the guidance of her elder Ramarao. At the same time, Lakshmi is again conceived when Ramarao schemes to pose her baby as Parvatamma's. Here, Ramaiah suspects the infidelity of Lakshmi as Ramarao becomes frequent to their house and expels her from holding Subbadu. She shelters at Ramarao's residence, delivers a baby girl, and quits. Ramaiah remarries Durga, who elopes with a stage actor after throwing Subbadu into a stream. Dejected, Lakshmi attempts suicide when she finds her son fortuitously and saves him. After Durga quits, Ramaiah turns into an ascetic. Years roll by, and Lakshmi's daughter Kamala grows up as vainglory under the pampering of Parvatamma and loves Ramarao's son, Premnath. But Premnath's mother, who is aware of actuality, opposes it. Subbadu / Subbarao is molded into a lawyer of repute by his mother. After a few twists from here on, all ends up well. Ramaiah returns home, and the family is reunited.
