Sitamma, an affluent widow, dotes on her only daughter, Sobha. On Sobha’s 5th birthday, her maternal uncle Shankaram gifts a locket merging her photograph and words to knit Sobha with his son Raja. The same night, Sobha is abducted by a tribal chieftain, Sardar, for jewelry. Years rolled by, and Sobha grew as Rani in their hamlet under the nurture of Sardar with his sister Nagamma’s daughter Kasturi. Parallelly, Lala, a big fish, entices Rani, but Kasturi endears him. Once, Rani conducts a busking when Raja sweethearts her; via his mate Sambhu, he finds her whereabouts and two crushes. Discerning it, Lala cautions Nagamma and strikes Raja. Being aware of his son’s love affair, Shankaram rebukes, but Raja stands firm. As a result, he quits the house.

Currently, Raja & Rani flee with the aid of Nagamma and approach Sitamma, who wholeheartedly welcomes them. Meanwhile, Lala forcibly retrieves Rani when Raja chases them.
