Plot
Hyma (Jaya Prada) is a mute girl who is passionate about dancing. She is ill-treated by her stepmother (Rama Prabha), who wants to make her daughter Savithri (Kavitha) a film heroine. Sambayya (Chandra Mohan), an orphan, is in love with Hyma, and saves her from being cheated by her vile stepmother and her nephew, Badram (Devadas Kanakala).
Sambayya takes Hyma to the city after her father's (Satyanarayana) death, where he is afflicted by TB. Hyma earns money by dancing at a Kalakshetra. Sambayya wants her to marry the organizer Ram Babu, but Hyma's heart beats only for her loyal companion Sambayya. Savithri acts in a movie and is shunned by all, and Hyma takes care of them. All is forgiven. Sambayya and Hyma get married in the end.
