Plot

Ramu, an introvert, is the son of a millionaire, Bahadoor Appa Rao, who adheres to family prestige. He is surrounded by his sly maternal uncle Gopal Rao & his family to usurp his wealth. The only one who showers motherly affection on him is his sister-in-law Varalamma, the deceased older brother's wife. Here, Ramu falls for a destitute Sarada, but as he obeys his father's command, he abandons her and prepares to marry Gopal Rao's daughter, Jayamma. Indeed, Jayamma has an affair with her second cousin Giri and conceives, too, which Varalamma discerns. Whereat, Gopal Rao ploys by attributing taint to Ramu & Varalamma's relationship, which makes her quit with the infants. Following this, Ramu also moves, relinquishing the property. Next, Gopal Rao ruses by bankrupting Appa Rao and prisons him forging as the insane. Parallelly, Krishna, a sagacious younger of Ramu, lives with his mother Lakshmi and crushes on a girl named Satya. Once, he is acquainted with Ramu when Lakshmi spins rearward. Due to the wiles of Gopal Rao & his family, Appa Rao has ostracized her while carrying. Meanwhile, Krishna segregates the fragmented family and retrieves Sarada & Varalamma, including Appa Rao, who absconded lands therein. Now, Krishna, with his tactics, ceases the cunnies. At last, he proclaims that ''the smartness of Krishna is more essential today than Rama's righteousness.'' Finally, the movie ends happily with the marriages of Ramu & Sarada and Krishna & Satya.
