Plot
The film is set in a village where Pullayya, a naive and kind-hearted young man, is admired by everyone for his friendly nature. The recently deceased Zamindar's widow, Manorama Devi, lives in the town with her stepson Chinna Babu and his wife, Vasantha. After the Zamindar's death, their distant relative, the villainous Bhupal Rao, takes control of the estate and attempts to manipulate Manorama. He also conspires to steal hidden treasure from the Zamindar’s grave, but Manorama refuses his advances. One day, Bhupal Rao visits the village seeking a loyal servant, prompting Pullayya to move to the city at the request of his father, Seshayya, to resolve financial issues. In the city, Pullayya earns the trust of his new employers and becomes close to Vasantha, who educates and cares for him. Meanwhile, the maid Kantham also becomes fond of Pullayya. Pullayya soon learns of the illicit relationship between Bhupal Rao and Manorama but remains silent at Kantham’s urging. Bhupal Rao, unable to sway Vasantha, decides to sabotage her by falsely accusing her of infidelity with Pullayya. Chinna Babu believes the lie and, in a fit of rage, rejects Vasantha, who is then cast out while pregnant. Pullayya takes responsibility for Vasantha and accompanies her back to the village, where rumors begin to spread, leading Seshayya to disown his son. With the help of his friends, Pullayya provides shelter to Vasantha, and she eventually gives birth to a son. Meanwhile, Kantham reveals Bhupal Rao’s treachery and his affair with Manorama. Chinna Babu, realizing his mistake, seeks forgiveness from Vasantha and breaks ties with his mother. As Pullayya returns to the town to share the happy news, Bhupal Rao plots to destroy the Zamindar’s grave, attacks Manorama, and frames Pullayya for the crime. He also tries to drive Manorama insane, but she manages to escape. In the end, a reformed Manorama reveals the truth, exonerating Pullayya and exposing Bhupal Rao’s crimes. Bhupal Rao is punished, and the film concludes with Pullayya and Kantham’s marriage, bringing the story to a happy resolution.Cast
