Plot
SSS Bhavani Prasad (Nandamuri Balakrishna) lives in Karampudi. Sruthi (Arti Agarwal), a girl who is engaged to an NRI, falls in love with Bhavani Prasad. A lady called Siva Nageshwari (Sonali Bendre) enters their wedding and shoots at Bhavani Prasad. The rest of the film explains the reasons for the shooting and the consequences that follow.
Bhavani Prasad (Nandamuri Balakrishna) is a local leader who works for the good of the people. The people respect him, adore him and are even willing to give up their life for him. On the occasion of Bhavani Prasad's sister's marriage, he meets Sruthi, a friend of his sister. Sruthi is the fiancée of American-born Indian – Prithvi. They both part ways as he asks her to undergo a virginity test before marriage. In the due course of events, she falls in love with Bhavani Prasad. Both the families agree to their marriage. On this occasion, Siva Nageshwari enters and shoots Bhavani Prasad.
Flashback unveils in the second half. One of the persons (Jatin) who works under Bhavani Prasad gets bashed up by goons of the rival faction – Nagayalanka Narasinga Naidu (JP Reddy) for no reason of him. They presume that he wrote love letters to his daughter Siva Nageshwari and trash the pulp out of him. Due to this, Jatin becomes a cripple for life. Bhavani Prasad vows to get Nageswari married to Jatin, but the story takes a U-turn from then. Another of Bhavani’s rivals – Mukesh Rushi joins hands with Narasinga Naidu and plans to damage Bhavani’s image and withhold Siva Nageshwari’s marriage. It is also revealed that Mukesh Rushi’s son fell in love with Bhavani’s sister who rejected his love and married someone else. To avenge these defaming incidents both these villains unite.
