## Plot

The film begins with a simpleton Gopalam who aims to knit the sole girl in his dream. Meanwhile, he acquires a job and walks where the nasty manager, Muddu Krishna, causes him distress. Once Gopalam is acquainted with his childhood buddy, Anjaneyulu, destiny makes his sibling Bharati Gopalam’s dream girl, and the two crush. Here, Gopalam learns a hindrance since Bharati has an unmarried elder, Swarajyam. Being a true patriot, their father, Bose Babu, deplores the dowry system of which Swarajayam’s alliances are frequently hog-tying. Moreover, she endears a guy named Kalyan, whose greedy father, Prakasam, seeks ₹50,000 (US$630) dowries. Hereupon, Gopalam assures Anjaneyulu that he will allocate the amount. Hence, Anjaneyulu secretly talks with Prakasam and agrees to furnish the total covertly before the wedding. Tragically, Gopalam cannot raise the funds, which calls off the splice when Bose Babu leaves his breath. Simultaneously, Gopalam spots Muddu Krishna neglecting his bag, which he tries to return but fails. Upon opening it, he detects a vast amount when Gopalam intends to take the required currency from it. At this, he discerns the money as counterfeit by Muddu Krishna’s false advertising to retrieve it. So, Gopalam swaps it with the bag of a jocular player, Chaplin Nataraju. Fortuitously, the bag goes back to Muddu Krishna after a tour. Parallelly, Gopalam is terrified to view a murder weapon, blood & other evidence in the bag he possesses and incriminated as a convict. However, he absconds and approaches Anjaneyulu when, as a flabbergast, he knows the slain individual as Swarajyam. Then, Gopalam lay hold of Nataraj, who proclaimed that an unbeknownst had dropped them in his bag on Swarajayam’s wedding eve, where he was conducting consort. Now a comic tale, Gopalam, in various disguises and with his mate's aid unwraps the homicide as Prakasam & Kalyan. At last, Gopalam, with a play, divulges the actuality via heels and penalizes them. Finally, the movie ends happily with the marriage of Gopalam & Bharati.
