Then Ramya wants to take revenge on him, so, she keeps a bet with Balaraju that he should play with his snake for 6 hours. Both of them keep their conditions that if Balaraju loses, he should work as a servant in Ramya's house and if he wins Ramya should marry him. Finally, Balaraju wins, and to escape Ramya asks Balaraju to come to the city and talk with her father. Taking her words, Balaraju leaves to the city where he is badly insulted by Ramya and thrown out of her house. Now Balaraju decides to teach a lesson to Ramya, he changes his entire attire, educates himself and becomes a All Rounder. After that, he impresses Ramya and makes her fall in his love without knowing his identity; when Ramya comes to know the truth she again plays a drama. She asks Balaraju to kidnap someone on her birthday party to earn money so that her father will give acceptance to their marriage. Balaraju cleverly kidnaps Ramya's father Bapineedu only, to teach her a lesson. But unfortunately, Bapineedu's P.A.J.P. (Jaya Prakash Reddy) re-kidnaps him to grab his property and the blame comes on Balaraju. Police are in search of Balaraju and whenever they try to catch him, Balaraju's snake protects him, so, Police uses another snake charmer called Anaconda (Brahmanandam). On the other side, J.P. is in search of Bapineedu's cellphone in which his entire property details are hidden. But, by misfortune, it remained with Balaraju.
