Plot

The film opens with Justice Chakravarthy (Akkineni Nageswara Rao), a champion of justice, leading a happy life with his wife Jayanthi (Jayasudha), three children - Kalyan (also Akkineni Nageswara Rao) who is an advocate, Inspector Pavan Kumar (Murali Mohan) and a daughter Lakshmi (Suhasini). Chakravarthy loves his daughter dearly and arranges her marriage to a seemingly intelligent man named Pratap (Pratap Pothan). However, after the marriage, it is revealed that Pratap is a hardcore criminal who had married Lakshmi only to protect himself from the judiciary. When Pratap's henchman Ganganna (Arjan Janardhan Rao) is caught by the police and a case is filed in court, Pratap threatens Chakravarthy to give a judgment in his favor. However, Chakravarthy refuses and sentences him. Enraged, Pratap kills Lakshmi and cleverly escapes the sentence using a cunning lawyer named Baroda Bachchan (Dasari Narayana Rao).

Chakravarthy is pressured to give a judgment in favor of Pratap, but he refuses, causing his entire family to leave him. Jayanthi passes away due to the stress of the situation. Chakravarthy decides to take revenge and kills Pratap, surrendering himself to the police. In court, he agrees to being guilty, but Baroda Bachchan arrives and proves Chakravarthy innocent. However, Chakravarthy's conscience haunts him as he cannot accept that he took the law into his own hands. Thus, he alone enters the court hall, stands in the witness box, prosecutes himself, and gives himself a judgment of death sentence. The next day, Chakravarthy is found dead in the court hall.
