Justice Ramachandra Rao belongs to a highly reputed family and lives with his mother, Shanthamma, and younger brother Venu, a law student.

On the wedding day, Vijaya is shocked to see Ramachandra Rao as he is the perpetrator of the homicide she saw and pleads with Janaki to stop it.

One day, Janaki, Shanthamma, and Vijaya find Ramachandra Rao stealing money from a cabinet and hinder him, but he casts them.

At that moment, Venu comes with the actual offender, Raju, when Shanthamma realizes he is Ramachandra Rao's twin brother and starts narrating the past.

Years ago, Ramachandra Rao's father, a judge, gave the death penalty to a criminal.

Papaiah confesses in court that he had Raju commit many crimes to frame Ramachandra Rao and ruin his reputation.

At last, Ramachandra Rao is acquitted, Raju is sentenced to a short-term penalty, and Vijaya pleads for a pardon.
