Once upon a time, a Kingdom was ruled by an innocent Prataparudra (Relangi), the entire administration is taken care of his brother-in-law Gajendra (Rajanala), who behaves as a cruel dictator. Ramu (N. T. Rama Rao) is a young dynamic hero who always figures for the good of the people. Once he observes Gajendra molesting a village girl, Ramu teaches him a lesson and seeks apologies. Princess Madhumathi (Rajasri), daughter of Prataparudra in disguise, notices it and both of them fall in love. One night, Gajendra spots Ramu in the fort, when he is escaping, gets hit by a knife and falls into a river. Chaya (L. Vijayalakshmi), a village girl, saves him and she too loves him. Chaya expresses his love for Ramu, but he does not give any response. The King fixes Madhumathi's alliance with Gajendra, Ramu learns it and reaches the fort. Unfortunately, by that time, Madhumathi is missing. Gajendra blames Ramu for it and tries to arrest him but he flies. After that, Ramu understands that Madhumathi is under Gajendra's custody only, he rescues her and reaches the forest. Chaya observes Madhumathi with Ramu, out of jealousy she gives information to Gajendra, and Ramu gets captured by soldiers. Gajendra orders the King to give the death sentence to Ramu but he refuses, so, Gajendra imprisons him too and gives a judgment to make Ramu blind. Here, Chaya plays a drama and releases him. Finally, Ramu eliminates Gajendra, marries both Madhumathi & Chaya and Prataparudra crowns him.
