Raju, the railways' Coolie No. 1 at Secunderabad, and Ranjani repeatedly clash, highlighting their stubborn personalities. Their ongoing friction foreshadows the deeper entanglement that follows. The rivalry lays the groundwork for the eventual confrontation.

Ranjani calls her father from Singapore and a rape accusation is manufactured against Raju, leading to his imprisonment. The injustice galvanizes Raju to fight back and seeds the later reunion with Ranjani. This act also escalates the feud between their families.

Raju escapes from jail, seizing a chance to reclaim his life. This escape sends him on a new path that intersects with Ranjani's world again. The escape intensifies the stakes for everyone involved.

Under pressure, Koteswara Rao and Ranjani travel to Singapore to resolve matters. Raju follows with Gruhalakshmi's help, determined to confront his fate abroad. The Singapore phase relocates the central drama to a new setting.

In Singapore, Raju pretends to be Bharat, presenting himself as a powerful figure. He wins Ranjani's trust and the family begins to accept the match. The deception highlights the power of appearances and manipulation.

The truth about Bharat's identity comes out after the marriage is planned, shocking Ranjani and her father. Raju exposes his real self, causing Ranjani to throw away the sacred wedding chain in anger. The revelation fractures their relationship at a critical moment.

The couple returns to India and Raju arranges a wedding reception. Koteswara Rao hires goon Ranga Rao to stop it, triggering a riot in Raju's colony that results in many deaths. The violence deepens the rift and endangers everyone.

In a moment of desperation, Raju sedates Ranjani to make her pregnant, with Gruhalakshmi's help. Ranjani struggles to terminate the pregnancy but cannot. She resolves to carry the baby until birth.

Ranga Rao, Buchi Babu, and Gopal attempt to kill Koteswara Rao for his property, but Raju steps in to defend him. The confrontation sharpens Raju's perspective on family loyalty. The danger intensifies for all involved.

Ranjani gives birth to a boy, but she refuses to accept the child and Raju's family — and she ultimately abandons the baby. The baby disappears into the turmoil, leaving a parent-child rift in its wake. This marks a painful low point for both partners.

Gruhalakshmi reveals that Ranjani is not their biological daughter and that the dying woman was her own mother. The revelation shatters Ranjani's constructed identity. She begins to acknowledge her mistakes in light of the truth.

Ranga Rao and the others beat Raju and kidnap the baby, using the threat to coerce Ranjani into surrendering property documents. Ranjani falls at Raju's feet to beg for help, apologizing for her actions. Raju protects the baby and defeats the villains, paving the way for reconciliation.

With the threats resolved and the truth acknowledged, Raju and Ranjani remarry. The family begins to heal as justice and love guide their future.
