Sathyanarayana Murthy is a rough but kind man who lives in Amalapuram with his niece Lavanya, mother, sister, and brother-in-law. Sathya and Lavanya share a special bond and are the best of friends. One day, Lavanya falls off a swing in a park and dies. Sathya discovers that Lavanya, his niece, has been murdered by an arms dealer Pasupathi, who resides in Los Angeles. Driven by the desire for revenge, Sathya wants to travel to the US but faces an obstacle as he is uneducated and unable to obtain a travel visa. However, he meets and falls in love with Shailaja along the way. Despite his feelings for Shailaja, Sathya ends up marrying Neelima, who holds a US Green Card, with the intention of using her status to gain entry into Los Angeles.
