Sarada is subjected to domestic violence by her spouse Inspector Krishna Rao and even goes into miscarriage. Thus, as a brash lady Manikyamma gets her back and also sentences her son-in-law. Meanwhile, Neela is ragged by her co-student Chakarvathy as a payback Manikyamma slaps him in front of all. Parallelly, Madhavi loves a cool guy Prabhakar and their elders accept it. As well as Neela's alliance is also fixed with a well-educated guy which is difficult for Jagam. Exploiting it, Chakarvathy arouses Jagam and makes him muddle at the marriage ceremony. Hence, both weddings are called off. After some time, Jagam silently knits Neela in her sleep even Prabhakar also wedlocks Madhavi without his parents' assent. Here, Neela discards Jagam and always humiliates him which he bears with patience. Besides, Chakravarthy intrigues along with his friend Kishore and traps Jhansi. Knowing it, Balakotaiah moves to fix up the alliance together with Jhansi where Kishore tries to molest Jhansi. In that clash, Balakotaiah slaughters Chakravarthy and goes behind bars. At last, Jagam struggles hard along with the family and acquits Balakotaiah. Consequently, Neela understands her husband's virtue. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note.
