Plot
The film begins at Vizag, where CI Raghu Nayak points Vasu & Head-constable Pattapagalu Venkatrao at a gun on the beach. Vasu rewinds his memories, as he is the grandson of a justice-seeking ruffian, Meesala Simhachalam. Besides, a monstrous goon, Bairagi Naidu, is covetous towards him and ruses to clutch charge of the city when Simhachalam confronts him, whom he mortifies publicly. Whereat, his acolyte Naidu, suggests Simhachalam sculpt Vasu, a bright student, into a rowdy since the absence of an heir to him. Though it frustrates & pesters Vasu, he adopts it for his grandfather's sake.
Years roll by, and Vasu is ready for attack. Bairagi summits heights in the crime world and creates mayhem in society with his son Nandu. Once, Vasu flashes and falls for a software employee, Sahitya. She is Venkatrao's daughter, a paterfamilias to a bourgeoisie family. Soon, they hear their land in outstrikes hike prices for ₹2 crore (US$240,000) which squatted by Bairagi. Tragically, Bairagi settles the matter at ₹50,000 (US$600) by battering and showing danger to Venkatrao. Being conscious of it, Vasu declares to aid Sahitya's family when, with them, he plots to abduct Bairagi to retrieve their money as ransom. Hence, they all conduct vast recce and perfect schemes. On the verge, Bairagi senses and lays hold of them when, startlingly, a man under the veil shoots the miscreant at point-blank range. Next, Venkatrao & family fled by lifting their amount but, in a hurry, left evidence such as a shoe, fingerprints, spectacles, and some hair of each one, which the forensic lab produced. The officials reappoint Nayak, a reckless suspended cop, to investigate the case.
Meanwhile, Simhachalam is on cloud nine, assuming Vasu has slaughtered Bairagi but hard on the heels of upset discerning the fact. Parallelly, Sahitya is alive to Vasu's genuine love, and she, too, reciprocates. Following this, Vasu focuses on manipulating the proofs at the forensic lab via Venkatrao—additionally, they track over Nayak by planting a bug in his shoe. Here, as a flabbergast, they are mindful that Nayak is Bairagi's second spouse's son, which no one knows, and he is awaiting a shot against his father's homicides. Nayak moves forward with his investigation, where he smells Bairagi's enmity with both Vasu & Venkatrao and keeps them on edge of death.
Apart from comprehending the actuality, Nandu seizes Venkatrao's family. Vasu tactically moves the pawn by forging Nandu as the actual killer before Nayak because they clash about Bairaji's second son. Nayak believes it because it is a closed secret when Vasu, Nayak, & Venkatrao attack Nanda to rescue the family, and Nayak shoots dead Nanda in Vasu's trap. At last, while Vasu & Sahitya are engaging, Simhachalam overhears that Vasu assassinated Bairagi, detecting that he has also slain his father on behalf of the accident. Later, Vasu spills before his grandfather, and as he detests rowdyism, he does not take credit for the murder. Ergo, Simhachalam relieves him to lead his life his way. Finally, the movie ends comically, Venkatrao carrying Vasu to a new settlement.
