The film begins with an ideal couple, Shankar Rao and Parvati, who devote their lives to raising Shankar Rao’s three younger siblings: Mohan, Sagar, and Kamala, even sacrificing their own children. Shankar Rao works tirelessly to guide his brothers toward responsibility. Observing this, Sagar pretends to be ill while influencing Mohan to become an engineer. Mohan falls in love with and marries the proud Uma, daughter of millionaire Sulochana Devi. Soon, Uma clashes with the family, swearing to ruin their happiness, which causes a rift. Humiliated by her mother’s interference, Mohan leaves for Dubai to pursue his career, while Sagar also departs after facing Uma’s insults. Meanwhile, Shankar Rao sacrifices his job and home to ensure Kamala’s marriage to her love, Bujji.
As time passes, Uma realizes her mistakes and seeks redemption by helping Mohan. She is attacked by goons, but Sagar protects her. Eventually, Mohan and Uma reunite and set out to find Shankar Rao and Parvati, discovering that the couple is terminally ill.
