Prasad oversees his father's business and fed up with the high-profile lifestyle & busy schedules want to live like a normal person. He loves a charming girl Subhadra (Raasi) but misjudging him as a materialistic she refuses. On the other side, Apco / Appala Konda (Sivaji Rao) a crafty person, aspires to marry Subhadra widens the gap between the two. Meanwhile, Prasad's father dies in a flight crash and the entire business is about to bankrupt. Just before, Prasad gets a glow that his father has secured a huge amount in a bank but to acquire it his father's signature is compulsory when Prasad & Anji plan to pose someone as his father and pick it up. Now, Anand Rao (Akkineni Nageswara Rao) a multi-millionaire lands in the city, once for chucklesome he disguises himself as a fruit seller when Prasad meets & expresses to him the plight and Anand Rao also learns due to the deception of his office staff Prasad has been bankrupted. Hence, he accepts to act as his father as remorse, thereupon, Anand Rao cleverly throws Prasad out of his turbulence and even resolves his love affair with Subhadra. After some time, Anand Rao affirms the truth when Prasad asks him to be his father forever and he heartfully embraces him. Right now, surprisingly, Sarada (Jayasudha) the wife of Anand Rao who has discarded him years ago due to the misunderstandings returns. Being cognizant of their past, Prasad & Subhadra decides to unite them but unfortunately, the clashes arise between the two as they support each of them.
