Seetha, an unemployed woman, takes up stage acting as a career. A wealthy man Gangaraju is after her and uses his henchman Joogulu to kidnap her. During the attempt, Raja rescues her and the two fall in love. He is the son of a Zamindar Rao Bahadoor Ranganatham, who has a poor opinion of Seetha. However, after many hurdles, the two marry. The director of Seetha's stage troupe, Gopal Rao too is in love with her, but she never responds. Accidentally, Gangaraju is murdered, the blame comes on Gopal and he is arrested. He has an alibi — on the night of the murder, a young woman stayed with him in his house, but then he does not disclose her identity. The woman turns out to be Seetha, and she gives them the evidence. One of the members of the jury is her father-in-law, and complications follow, with the husband leaving her and wishing to marry again.
