Synopsis

Nagendra Naidu is a powerful police officer. He wants to see his son Radhakrishna a.k.a. Radha also as a good police officer. He always dreams of his son bashing the dons and get a state government's medal which should be presented through his hands. However, his wife Sarala wants to see her son as a super star. Then a peculiar GO gets passed by the state government by which any honest person is eligible for a Police job. As Nagendra Naidu convinces his wife that all the training that is needed for a film hero could be learnt in just three months time in the Police Academy, Sarala agrees to join him in the Police Academy. Radha falls in love with Krishnaveni alias Krishna at the police academy. The latter too loses her heart to him. At this juncture, her photo appears in the TV saying that she was a big Naxalite leader. The actual story gets revealed with a small twist. Was Krishna framed as a Naxalite or is she really a Naxalite? What happens to the love between Radha and Krishna? How far was Radha able to fulfil the dream of his father Nagendra Naidu? The answers to all these questions form the second half of the film.
