An auto driver witnesses Mattu Bhai murder a news reporter and helps the police arrest him. That night, Mattu Bhai and his henchmen attack the auto driver and his family; they kill the auto driver and injure his wife, but the auto driver’s son Charan Ram Charan survives. Charan’s mother Pragathi Mahavadi is critically injured, and Charan and his uncle lack the money for her operation. The local mafia leader’s son commits a crime and offers Charan a deal. To pay for his mother’s surgery, Charan falsely confesses to the crime and gets imprisoned.
Twelve years later, Charan is released from prison and learns from his uncle Venkateswara Rao that his mother has died. Charan meets Sanjana Neha Sharma—the daughter of Karthikeya Prakash Raj—a wealthy business magnate. Ajay, a cop, helps Charan obtain a passport and Charan leaves for Bangkok to join a travel agency recommended by his uncle. Sanjana and her friends arrive in Bangkok as tourists where Charan works as a tour guide. Charan seems irritable around Sanjana as she is an annoying spoiled brat. When Biku, a gangster and his henchmen bother Sanjana, Charan saves her and becomes her bodyguard.
A few days later, Biku’s men attack Sanjana again and Charan rescues her. They escape on a water bike but it runs out of gas, leaving them stranded in the sea. They swim to a nearby island, where Charan initially teases Sanjana but later confesses his love for her. Karthikeya and others believe Charan has kidnapped Sanjana as they discovered Charan’s criminal record. Karthikeya organizes a search party to find Sanjana. Charan spots a helicopter, but Sanjana, who now loves Charan, does not want to be found, fearing her father’s disapproval. Charan reveals that he arrived in Bangkok to kill Mattu Bhai, who runs a notorious crime network in Bangkok and other cities.
Charan had tried to kill Mattu Bhai at a bar, but he escaped and stopped coming to Bangkok. While Charan and Sanjana have a chat, an army of black assassins arrives and a fight ensues. Karthikeya arrives in a helicopter. Sanjana runs to her father, explaining that Charan saved her. When Sanjana admits that she loves Charan, Karthikeya orders his men to kill Charan. Charan is knocked unconscious, but is later rescued by a company member. Sanjana argues with her father and runs back to Charan.
Karthikeya contacts Charan, revealing that his mother is actually alive and that his uncle had lied about her death. Karthikeya offers to trade Charan’s mother for Sanjana. Charan brings Sanjana to the arranged meeting spot, telling her that his mother has no one else while Sanjana still has her father. Karthikeya takes Sanjana and releases Charan’s mother. Meanwhile, Mattu Bhai sees the photos of Charan and Sanjana on TV and recognizes Charan where he instructs Biku to kidnap Sanjana.
During the exchange, a shootout occurs and Karthikeya’s men are killed while Biku escapes with Sanjana. Karthikeya, who is shot in the leg, acknowledges Charan’s love for his mother and urges him to rescue Sanjana. Charan leaves his mother with Karthikeya and chases Biku. Biku’s men capture Charan and take him to the island, where Mattu Bhai and Biku are hiding. Mattu Bhai lets Charan and Sanjana escape, intending to hunt them. Charan kills Mattu Bhai’s men including Biku and lures Mattu Bhai into a trap. Charan finally kills Mattu Bhai in the same manner in which Mattu Bhai killed Charan’s father. Charan and Sanjana return to their home.
