Ranga Rao, a widower and respected landlord, decides to fix his daughter Mahalakshmi's marriage to Dhorababu after she returns from college. He aims to secure her happiness and a stable future through a formal engagement. The plan sets the stage for a traditional village romance filled with family expectations.

Mahalakshmi reveals to Dhorababu that in the city she had fallen in love with Kishore. Kishore is described as mischievous yet amiable, and his past behavior creates doubt about a future together. She insists she cannot lie or cheat Dhorababu, hoping for an honest outcome.

Kishore initially appears to reject the idea of marriage, telling Mahalakshmi he isn’t interested in tying the knot. He had spent the night with her, which adds layers of complication and deception to the situation. The uproar makes the bond between the couple and their lovers more fragile.

Dhorababu confronts Kishore and seeks clarity about his intentions. He discovers that Kishore's stubborn stance was part of a ruse, and that Kishore does, in fact, love Mahalakshmi. The confrontation paves the way for the real truth to surface.

Mahalakshmi forgives Kishore after learning his true feelings. She agrees to give their relationship a chance and resolves to be honest with everyone. The couple’s reconciliation strengthens the bonds within the group.

Rani, Mahalakshmi’s cousin, falls for Dhorababu, and he reciprocates. They keep their love secret for the time being, fearing how the family might react. Their budding romance adds to the undercurrent of forbidden love running through the family.

Ranga Rao misunderstands the growing affection and decides to secure both couples by arranging marriages accordingly. He fixes Rani’s marriage to Kishore to coincide with Mahalakshmi’s union with Dhorababu. The plan is driven by parental worry and a desire to prevent scandal.

The four youngsters decide that eloping might be the only way to salvage their loves without breaking family plans. Mahalakshmi hesitates, worried about hurting her father, and tears form as she contemplates running away. They secretly prepare for an escape that would unite their lovers.

At the last minute, Mahalakshmi cannot go through with the elopement and confesses the truth to her father. She pours out her love for Kishore and her sense of obligation to Dhorababu. The confession unfolds with emotional honesty that touches Ranga Rao.

Ranga Rao understands the deeper motives and decides to let the marriages proceed as planned. He believes true happiness comes from honest love and accepts his daughters' choices. The family breathes a sigh of relief as forgiveness and support are offered.

Mahalakshmi and Dhorababu marry in the village, marking the culmination of their journey from engagement to true partnership. The ceremony unites two honest hearts and earns the family’s approval. It signals a hopeful ending for the couple and the household.
