Perspective
The film begins with a wise girl, Lakshmi, who lost her parents and her paternal uncle, Narayana Rao, rearing her. Jagadamba, her shrew aunt, persecutes her sharp pain. The Narayana Rao couple has two children: Kotaiah, who dotes on Lakshmi & Kathyayani, a pampered naughty. According to her horoscope, Narayana Rao predicts Lakshmi will knit a prosperous alliance. Meanwhile, Kotaiah quits the house and joins the army. Years roll by, and Jagadamba fixes a match for Katyayani, but they like Lakshmi. As a result, Jagadamba necks her out. During that plight, she lands at Tirumala and rescues a baby of a wealthy couple, Nagabhushnam & Sitamma, when they shelter her when Lakshmi gains their credence. Moreover, their son Ravi loves her, which the elders accept, but it begrudges Nagabhushanam's brother-in-law Jaganadham as he aspires to splice his daughter Parvati with Ravi. So, he ploys by bribing Jagadamba & her sly brother Sambaiah, who forges that Lakshmi is already wedlock in childhood, making her exit. Besides, Kathyayani elopes with her beloved Pullaiah with the money. Parallelly, Kotaiah returns and divulges the reality that causes Ravi to collapse. Meanwhile, Pullaiah & Katyayani lose money when Lakshmi aids them in backing up. Knowing the whereabouts of Lakshmi via them, Kotaiah retrieves her. By this time, Ravi is terminally ill and has recovered from the idolization of Lakshmi. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the marriage of Ravi & Lakshmi.
