Plot

Seetarama Rao, a misogynist, runs an organization against them and inflames all men, establishing an association called Stri Dwesha Samajam & Bharya Bhaditula Sangam. Once a client, Head Constable Nippu Appala Swamy seeks the reason behind his deeds. Then he spins rearward. Seetarama Rao & his younger Krishna grew up with his brother-in-law Vasu & sister Subhadra. From childhood, he is naive, and everyone mocks him. Once, he is in quicksand when a beautiful girl, Lavanya surprising, signs into a save. Just after, Seetarama Rao makes various attempts to acquire her love. Here, Lavanya's blackguard cousin Subba Rao, who aspires to possess her, threatens him. Unfortunately, on an awkward occasion, Lavanya slaps Seetarama Rao publicly when he turns red out of shame and bids self-sacrifice. At that juncture, he receives a letter from Lavanya affirming her true love and that Subba Rao is forcibly knitting her. So, he rushes when Lavanya mortifies and expels him. Thus, Seetarama Rao stepped into this path. At present, Vasu Rao & Subhadra arrive and encounter Lavanya when she divulges reality. Indeed, to shield Seetarama Rao from Subba Rao, she forged herself as an imposter. Currently, Lavanya decides to recoup Seetarama Rao's love. So, she plays a role by residing in Seetarama Rao's neighborhood and starts an organization against him. During the interval, Krishna is attracted to Lavanya's sister Vasundhara. Eventually, Seetarama Rao's acolyte, Kailasam, loves Vasu's dumb sister Jyothi. Frightened, Krishna elopes with Vasundhara and attempts suicide when Appala Swamy rescues them. Parallelly, Subba Rao divulges the actuality to Seetarama Rao. At last, Seetarama Rao seeks to kill himself, being penitent but secure. Finally, the movie ends happily with the marriage of the three turtle doves.
