Once he is acquainted with a beautiful girl Keerthana in funny circumstances and they fall in love. Keertana also holds a mate Vindhya a stage artist.
Right now, the story unfolds with Keerthana divulging Vindhya regarding her childhood marriage with a guy Venkata Sivam in their village which she denies and even changed her name from Vighneswari to Keerthana. At present, Keerthana's maternal uncle Dattatreya arrives and forces her to immediately pack to the village to meet her paternal uncle Sarvanandam (Pucha Poornanandam).
During that plight, Keerthana sends Vindhya instead of her as Paramanadam is blind and deaf. Here surprisingly, Venkatasivam is none other than Madhu one that the same changed his name and thereof he too sends Sadguna Rao to the village requesting him to behave badly and get rid of Vighneswari. After a few comic incidents, Sadguna Rao and Vindhya fall for each other. The rest of the story is about what happens to these two young couples and how things fall in place.
