Abbulu is familiar with Post Master Subbramanyam's family, who has contacts with Maoists.
Once, at a meeting, a pragmatic Seetaram belonging to Lakshmana Dalam acquaints with Abbulu. He reads their sad lives and realizes the concrete way out to abolish slavery is enlightenment. Hence, Seetaram opens the door for civilization by withdrawing his armament and constructing a school therein. After crossing many hurdles, Seetaram triumphs in getting all sundry on the right path. Presently, Abbulu develops an intimate bond with him, who titles her Abhilasha and is impressed with her intelligence. Like this, Lakshmana enforces Seetaram to educate Marxism, which he denies. So, they vigorously haul him, and it perturbs Abbulu. Nevertheless, he backs and boots his aim. Meanwhile, Shavukar conspires to fuse with Abbulu when she reports it to Seetaram hardly. However, the villagers misconstrue their relationship and aggressively knit Abbulu with Shavukar by battering Seetaram.

Now, Seetaram boosts Abhilasha's courage and affixes her to a welfare organization for higher studies. Next, he sets back his men. Time passes, and Abhilasha becomes a meritorious medico and begins disregarding discipline. Plus, her colleague Sandeep loves her, of which she is unbeknownst.

Moreover, he imparts Seetaram's fair mind, dreams & objectives as the impacts of pedagogy for societal welfare. The words soul-searches Abhilasha, moving in Seetaram's footsteps, espousing Sandeep. Being conscious of it, Nagaraju pledges to proceed with her goals. As of today, Abhilasha spots Seetaram alone, excavating a hill to comfort the locals, though everyone heckles him.
