Tortured by his wife (Madhavi) and her mother, he finds life miserable. He will slowly fall for his beautiful Personal Assistant Priyamvada (Bhanupriya). Meanwhile, his opponents cannot stand his success in business and plan to stop him from getting yet another business deal. Here, he meets Nagaraju (also Chiranjeevi), who is a small-time thief. Ravi Teja is saved by Nagaraju and he plans to exchange their positions, so that his problems can be solved forever.
