Plot

The film begins with AR College founder Susheela Devi, who has two siblings, Shekar & Kishore. Besides, Kalyani, a star pupil, attains Susheela's endearment. Kalyani is the daughter of a bourgeois Parandhamaiah, and her elder Anand is a personnel member of Shekar. Once, Kalyani moved for her friend's espousal when, fortuitously, Shekar landed therein. Here, Shekar is infatuated with a dancer, Nalini, and in a drunken state, he molests Kalyani on her behalf. Later, Shekar repents and admits guilt to Nalini when she realizes his pandemonium and accepts the apology. Just after a doleful, Kalyani conceives, which leads to Parandhamaiah's death. Before dying, Anand assures him to redress Kalyani's life. Time passes, and Kalyani delivers a baby boy when Anand deserts him. Susheela safeguards him. After a while, Susheela plans to knit Kalyani with Shekar, which Anand does, compelling her. Now, Kalyani discerns her baby and affirms Susheela's actuality. Nevertheless, she exonerates and implores her to coalesce with Shekar. However, dispirited Kalyani deprecates Shekar, which forces him antsy. Parallelly, Kishore falls for Vijaya, the daughter of the principal Parabrahmam. Being cognizant of it, lecturer Madhu Murthy, an intimate of Shekar, forewarns him. Just as, irate Parabrahmam imputes an illicit relation to Madhu & Susheela Devi and even poison pens Shekar. Believing it, Shekar proclaims his sister a slut which makes her attempt suicide. During that plight, Kalyani confesses the sin when infuriated Shekar initiates to slay her. At last, Nalini arrives and divulges the factuality. Finally, the movie ends with Susheela breathing her last, uniting Shekar & Kalyani.
