K. Krishna Murthy / KK works as an art director in Mumbai and his new wife Satyabhama / Bhama works as a stenographer in Kerala for a low salary. To solve their financial problems, they seek a job in a big company and pretend to be unmarried as their boss Sridhar Rao would give the job only to one member of the family. So the couple lies that they are unmarried and join the company. Sridhar Rao's only daughter Vasundhara / Vasu starts liking KK and moves close with him, which makes Bhama jealous and suspect her husband's character. Parallelly, Sridhar Rao's brother-in-law Giri flirts with Bhama and tries to trap her. This leads to destruction and disturbances in KK and Bhama's marriage.
