He also notifies his mate Jaganatham who sneaky sells his land to his sibling Rajyalakshmi and migrates to the city. After a while, the hoodwink comes out, hitherto it is too late. Rajyalakshmi's family loses most including clearing the debt. As a result, her husband Krishna Murthy becomes a wanderer. Therefrom, Rajyalakshmi strives hard for survival and rearing 3 infant kids by cultivating the left-over land. Spotting it, the younger one Sivaji supports his mother by quitting his education. Years roll by, and Rajyalakshmi & Shivaji toils and molds the elder son Ashok as a IAS, but he turns self-centered. Presently, Jaganatham reached the top as MP. Regardless, he is still tyrannizing the farmers by mingling with Duryodhana Rao and his wife Mahakaali. They ploys by failing to obtain the even farmer’s prime cost of crop and tramples the daily labors.
Rajyalakshmi & Shivaji continuously fights and struggles for the communal rights of farmers by uniting a labor union leader Bheemudu. Once, they extract a sham of Duryodhana Rao & Mahakaali and forcibly return the swindled amount obtained from the bank on behalf of unknown races. So, the malefactors' gambit creates a rift between farmers and laborers but in vain. Meanwhile, Ashok backs as a Collector who has been snared by Jaganatham. Ashok knits his daughter against his mother's wish when she severs from him. After that, the yearly crop thrives and farmers decide to avoid intermediator & dealers. Accordingly, they store the stock which is escorted by Bheemudu. Wherefore, Duryodhana Rao ruses and his son Bullabbai fires the total crop. Next, the black hats incriminate and haul Bheemudu to Panchayat where they attempt to burn him alive but he is safeguarded by Rajyalakshmi & Shivaji.
Next, Shivaji warns Duryodhana Rao to pay back the cost of the crop within 24 hours. Otherwise, his son Bullabbai will be slain. To abscond from it, Duryodhana Rao makes a foul play under the guidance of Jaganatham. They attribute an illicit relationship to Rajyalakshmi’s daughter Sudha with his nephew Suribabu. However, Shivaji falls them apart with aid of Bheemudu and recovers the amount. At this time, enraged knaves’ sharp practice of distributing fake seeds & fertilizers to farmers devastates the yield, and lose-hearted hundreds of farmers commit suicide. Additionally, they hound the bankers to settle the arrears taken by the farmers. Rajyalakshmi & Shivaji form a farmer’s association and opposes it. Then, Jagannath arouses the collector Ashok against them when a blazing row occurs which entails the encounter and death of innocent people. Now livid Rajyalakshmi begins a movement and charges anti to the government which ignites the country. Thus, the government bows its head down, accepts the defeat, and dethrones MP Jaganatham. Hence, the devils conspire for the mass murder of the village, and in that clash, Rajyalakshmi is shot dead. At last, Ashok also reforms and ceases the baddies joining Shivaji. Finally, the movie ends with Rajyalakshmi proclaiming before leaving her breath that This struggle continues forever until the formation of a Peasant State.
