Plot[]

Krishna is the son of a rich business couple, Rajasekharam and Shantamma. Bharathi is also a daughter of another rich man, Narayana Rao. Krishna has grown up without knowing or facing any problems and gets a new car. While driving in competition with his friend Satyam, he accidentally kills Balaiah's brother and blinds Balaiah. Somehow this incident comes to the knowledge of Kanta Rao and he confronts Krishna and throws him out of house. Krishna then ends up as one of the servants at Rao Gopal Rao's home. He also gets to know Balaiah and his family. He realizes the intensity of his mistake and vows to make Balaiah and his family's life better. Balaiah on the other hand, vows to kill the person responsible for his brother's death and his blindness. Knowing about his fate in the hands of Balaiah, Krishna keeps helping them. Finally, Balaiah learns about Krishna and forgives him.
