Plot

Chakravarthy is a famous musician who loves a girl, Kalyani, the daughter of a millionaire, Gopal Rao. Just before their wedlock, Chakravarthy is acquainted with his Master, who brought him up. At that moment, he learns that the Master's only daughter, Gowri, is in an insane state due to fail of frequent matches. To shield her, Master pleads Chakravarthy to lie that he will marry her, and as gratitude, he does so. Afterward, Master knows about Chakravarthy's alliance and implores Kalyani to secure his daughter. Thus, Kalyani sacrifices and makes Chakravathy knit Gowri. After that, Kalyani is fully broken when Gopal Rao approaches Chakravarthy’s aid, who convinces and performs her wedlock with a guy named Ranganath. Years have passed, and the Chakravarthy couple is blessed with 2 children. Gowri is a shrew who nags her husband and maltreats him. Once, Chakravarthy spots Kalyani suffering with a child because of impoverishment. Then, he learns that Ranganath is venomous, and he has abandoned them after Gopal Rao went bankrupt and committed suicide. Now, Chakravarthy shelters them when suspicion arises in eccentric Gowri, mindful of their prior familiarity, creating a rift and quitting. At last, Kalyani's self-sacrifice makes Gowri remorseful, and she seeks forgiveness. Finally, the movie ends with Chakravarthy’s couple adopting Kalyani's child.
