Paruvu Pratishtha Story
Raghu is an intellect from a wealthy family who falls for benevolent Susheela. She is needy of her maternal uncle and aunt, Parandhamaiah and Durgamma, who always scorn her. After that, Susheela acquires a job where her co-employee Narendra tries to molest her when she hands him over to the police. Due to this, Durgamma expels her when big-hearted couple Rao Bahadur Prakasam and his wife Parvati shelter her, none other than Raghu’s parents. Presently, Raghu covetously knits Susheela in the temple. Following this, he proceeds abroad for higher studies when Susheela conceives, and all suspect her chastity. Parallelly, Narendra is released, and he clutches Susheela by forging as his wife, but she absconds. Meanwhile, Raghu backs and divulges the actuality. By the time Susheela gives birth to a baby boy, she handovers him under the guardianship of Raghu’s best friend, Venkat, and his wife, Karuna. After that, she attempts suicide when Shantamma, a social reformer, secures and shelters her at their orphanage. Narendra lands therein when Shantamma’s brother Ranga shields her.
Years roll by, and Venu, the son of Raghu and Susheela, becomes an advocate. Besides, after a prolonged quest, Raghu detects Susheela’s whereabouts and affirms they are reunited. Unfortunately, Narendra reattacks them when Ranga slays him by stabbing him from behind, which incriminates Susheela. Venu prosecutes the case, and Raghu defends it. Although Venu is aware of his parentage, he stands for righteousness. Susheela rejoices to fuse the father and son. At last, Ranga surrenders by acquitting Susheela. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note.
