Though Ravindrababu loves Parvathi as a wife, he fails to get inspiration from her as a poet. The couple lack good wavelength match. This is when he meets an artist personified woman, Padma (Jayaprada). Her dance skills, expressions, looks and the poetic touch makes Ravindrababu express himself as a poet. Right from then, he transforms to  an admirer of Padma. Parvathi feels bad for this, thinking Padma- a woman belonging to prostitute family has snatched her husband.
