Plot

The film starts with Narasimha roving multiple places for peace in Karnataka, Kerala, and Tamilnadu with his newborn child. In Kumbakonam, he visits the temple on Rathasapthami, where the child unintentionally touches the priest. They feel inauspicious, but a benevolent temple secretary, Murali Krishna, solves it, offers Narasimha a job, and shelters him. Whereat, several servants reside, and Narasimha is cordial with them.

Besides, Kaniyappan, the local kingpin, conducts underground dealing and dotes on his younger Panday. ASP Ravi Shankar is a new appointee, bass & overbearing, who waives the cases of Kaniyappan taking kickbacks. Once, Narasimha resisted his abuse of power publicly, which envied him. In the interim, Dhanya, Murali Krishna's spoiled brat daughter, has an accident as a drunken which gravely injures Pandey. Kaniyappan infuses and assaults Murali Krishna's house when Narasimha indicts himself, gets battered when Dhanya reforms, and falls for him. After a while, Central Minister Veera Raghava Reddy visits as a guest of honor from Andhra Pradesh and humiliates the priest. Plus, uppity ASP slaps him, leading to Brahmins' agitation. Murali Krishna moves for negotiation when Narasimha forcibly makes ASP seek an apology. All is telecasted in media, viewed by a vindictive Thota Rami Reddy at Vizag, and incensed.

Parallelly, ASP slays Pandey out of vengeance, creating a feud between Kaniyappan & Narasimha. Despite that, Kaniyappan gazes at the actuality and abducts ASP's son. ASP seizes Narasimha under the count of Pandey's murder. En route, Narasimha sights goons carrying his son when he absconds and secures him by thrashing Kaniyappan. Narasimha is stunned to see ASP remorsefully bowing down for protecting his kid. Later, he realizes this by viewing ASP's wife, Gauri. Instead of gratitude, she shows her loathe to Narasimha. As a flabbergast, Dhanya arrives from the backside carrying Narasimha's child, and startlingly, the two are identical. Dhanya onlookers all and questions Narasimha when he spins rearward.

Narasimha & Gauri are childhood besties that flourish into love. Gauri, the daughter of a schoolmaster, returns after completing her studies. Thus far, Narasimha runs a mechanic shed and concerns his employees with equity, especially Manga, a naughty girl. One day, Narasimha spots Rami Reddy's son, Ravi Shankar Reddy, protesting for the MP seat at a crossroads, which leads to the catastrophe. Being a rebel, Narasimha opposes the atrocities in society, which bars Ravi Shankar from attending the nomination as a penalty. The result calls off his marital, and he commits suicide for loss of prestige—frenzied—ergo, Rami Reddy onslaughts on Manga's wedlock, leaving several deaths, including the bridegroom. Henceforth, Narasimha strikes Rami Reddy and sits in front of the judiciary, which declares a death sentence.

Meanwhile, Narasimha walks to Master with the proposal, which he denies because of his jeopardy lifestyle. In his plea, Narasimha decides to give up. Still, Gauri quits the house for his love. Narasimha knits Manga to impede her when furious Gauri turns aside from his life and splices ASP. Narasimha & Manga lead a delightful ginger, and she conceives. Suddenly, they become victims of an accident by Rami Reddy in which Manga dies giving birth to twins. In parallel, Narasimha discerns that Gauri has lost her baby, so he bestows one of two on her. Master watches it and feels grateful for his sacrifice.

Today, Rami Reddy absconds, mingles with Kaniyappan, and seizes ASP's family. However, Narasimha safeguards them by ceasing the baddies when the ASP couple is wounded, and tragically, their kid dies. At last, Narasimha gives away the second one to Gauri when Master salutes him for his eminence, to whom he says he will shield the couple for life. Finally, the movie ends with Narasimha proceeding with the corpse of his deceased son.
