[edit] Synopsis

After his father goes to jail for murder, a young boy Chotu (Chiranjeevi) is affectionately raised by the rich landlord of the village, who treats him as a son rather than as a servant. As he grows into a strapping young man, Chotu's bond to the landlord becomes closer.

Into this harmonic picture, enters Gudiya a.k.a Prabha (Meena), the younger daughter of the landlord back home after completing her higher studies in America. After getting the reluctant Chotu to fall for her, Gudiya one day suddenly screams rape, leading the landlord to whip Chotu and kick him out of the house.

Then there's the landlord's evil son-in-law (Prakashraj) plotting to usurp the property of the old man through nefarious means.
