Plot

The film begins with Vamsi under authentication that he is a reincarnation of Salim, the son of 16th century Mughal Emperor Akbar, who has detached from his turtle dove Anarkali by walling up. Presently, he hunts her as Sirisha and shadows her. Since Vamsi vexes her, she makes a fool of him, but she too flourishes after the apprehension of his genuine love. Shakuntala Devi, Sirisha's mother, a woman of vanity, senses it via her sly sibling Gnaneshwara Rao, who ruses to knit Sirisha with his son Giri. So, she proceeds to Vamsi and knows he is her husband, Bhaskar Rao's nephew. At this point, she traduces his family, bisects the beloved, and hits Vamsi hard. Currently, Vamsi's mother, Parvatamma, scolds him for endearing Sirisha by stating the depravity of Shakuntala Devi, which attributed stigma to their family and spins rearward.

Twenty years ago, Shakuntala decided to knit her son Seshu Babu with Gnaneshwara Rao's daughter. However, he espouses Vamsi's sibling, Padmavati, who envies the wicked cabal by setting down an illicit affair with pregnant Padmavati when Seshu Babu necks her out. Plus, Gnaneshwara Rao attempts to garrot her when she dies giving birth to baby girl Sarada. Now, Parvatamma orders Vamsi to wed Sarada, which he denies and declares to join Sirisha.

Hence, Parvatamma moves with the proposal when Shakuntala is constrained to entrust her property to Sirisha. Parvatamma accepts it, and they are nuptial. Next, Vamsi kicks out Sirisha when Shakuntala questions him. Whereat, he replies that his marriage is only to spend three nights Sirisha, for which he paid his property as a price. Ergo, furious Sirisha forges fake certificates as a virgin, Vamsi is impotent and removes the wedding chain. Anyhow, Vamsi is quiet, and the gimmicks of Shakuntala fail when Sirisha conceives.

From there, Vamsi starts heckling and announces his splice with Sarada. Thus, Shakuntala & Sirisha bow out and plead for pardon from Vamsi. Here, Vamsi unfolds his play as vengeance against the evil done toward his sister when his family detects his eminence. Listening to it, Bhaskar Rao smacks Shakuntala and quits. Sirisha also attempts suicide, which reforms Shakuntala, but Gnaneshwara Rao backstabs her and abducts Sirisha. Shakuntala expresses her sinister feelings publicly and begs for mercy from Vamsi. At last, Vamsi ceases the baddies. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the couple's reunion.
