Plot

Siddhartha (Nagarjuna) is the son of K.P. (Krishnam Raju), a business magnate. Siddhartha comes back from the states after so many years. Jyothi (Shobana), his childhood friend, has an unrequited love for him. One day, he is told K.P. rules an underworld mafia syndicate by his friend David (Sarath Babu), whom K.P. then kills. Siddhartha leaves home and reaches a forest where he falls in love with a tribal girl, Basanti (Ayesha Jhulka). Meanwhile, syndicate members Jogendra (Tiger Prabhakar) and Shetty (Pradeep Shakthi) plan to kill K.P. and Siddhartha with the help of his son-in-law Chakravarthy (J. D. Chakravarthy), leading to K.P. and Basanti's deaths. Siddhartha returns to rule the syndicate, and takes revenge on his remaining enemies.
