Kattula Katamarayudu, known as Katama, is a brave and selfless man living in the village of Oddaanchatram with his four younger brothers. Katama is deeply devoted to his siblings, often sacrificing his own happiness for their well-being. The brothers are notorious for getting into fights, and their lawyer, Bail Lingam, frequently bails them out of legal trouble. Katama is vehemently opposed to marriage, believing that a wife might create discord among his brothers. Despite promising not to fall in love or marry, his brothers secretly have girlfriends.
The brothers, wanting Katama’s approval for their relationships, learn from his childhood friend that Katama once loved a girl named Avantika. They hatch a plan to reintroduce Avantika to Katama, hoping he will fall for her again. However, they discover that Avantika is now married with children. Undeterred, they find another woman named Avantika, believing Katama will fall for her simply because of her name. Initially reluctant, Katama eventually falls in love with the new Avantika.
Katama soon clashes with a businessman named Radia, who controls the village market. Radia tries to kill Katama’s brothers, prompting Katama to kidnap Radia’s son, Juttu Ranga. After a fierce confrontation, Katama orders Radia to leave the village.
While traveling to Avantika’s village, she tells Katama about her family. Her father, Bhupathi, is a respected man who abhors violence, while her brother, a violent man, was killed. Bhupathi refused to bury his son’s body, committing himself to peace and harmony in the village. During the journey, goons attack the train, but Katama fights them off, surprising Avantika, who believed he was non-violent.
In Avantika’s village, Katama and his brothers, now clean-shaven, are warmly welcomed. Bhupathi is impressed by their love and hospitality. Katama learns that a goon named Yelasari Bhanu, who harbors a grudge against Bhupathi, plans to kill him. Years earlier, Bhupathi had exposed Bhanu’s father for causing a factory explosion, leading to his arrest and subsequent suicide. Bhanu seeks revenge against Bhupathi.
Katama discreetly deals with the threats to Bhupathi and his family. However, when Bhupathi’s granddaughter finds a sickle under Katama’s jeep, Bhupathi orders him to leave. Bhanu, having escaped a death sentence, arrives to kill Bhupathi. Katama hides Bhupathi’s family in a safe place, but Bhanu kidnaps Katama’s brother, Sivarayudu. Katama arrives just in time to save him but is attacked by Bhanu. Bhupathi and his family witness Katama’s bravery as he fights off Bhanu and his men.
An injured Katama rises and brutally kills Bhanu and his henchmen. Impressed by Katama’s valor, Bhupathi agrees to let him marry Avantika. The film concludes with the marriages of Katamarayudu and his brothers, bringing joy and unity to their family.
