Kutumba Gowravam Story
Gopalam, son of a Zamindar, leads a delightful family life with a compassionate wife, Satya, stepmother Rangamma, younger Pratap, and a little sibling, Bala. Shankaraiah, the vicious brother of Rangamma, also resides with them and subterfuges to usurp their wealth. Once, Shankaraiah forces Zamindar to write a will while ailing, when he tricks and makes him sign before the villagers. Meanwhile, Pratap becomes a spoiled brat; he tries to make a theft when his father obstructs his way and dies in the mishap. After his death, Shankaraiah slowly poisons Rangamma, creating a rift in the family and splitting them. Here, Gopalam surrenders totality to Rangamma, gets a wasteland, and quits.
Now, Shankaraiah takes the household authority and shifts it to the city. Besides, Gopalam & Satya toil, till the wasteland, and succeed in cultivating it into a fertile area. Parallelly, Shankaraiah bankrupts Rangamma and snatches their wealth. Moreover, he incriminates Pratap as a homicide when Gopalam arrives, shields them, ceases Shankaraiah, and protects their family prestige. At last, Rangamma pleads pardon from Gopalam. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the family’s reunion.
