Pelli Pustakam Story

The film begins with a matchmaking of a pair, K. Krishna Murthy (KK) & Satyabhama (Bhama), who perfectly understand their hardships & responsibilities in their private talks. Bhama has to pay her mother’s debt dowry amount {{INRConvert|20000}} to her vicious brother-in-law, who threatens to slay his wife, and KK has to conduct his sister’s nuptials. KK tactically marries Bhama without dowry because of his endearment to her. The marriage takes place grandly, proclaiming its eminence. Due to hard luck, KK’s job is as an art director at [[Bombay]] & Bhama is a stenographer at [[Kochin]], so they tolerate separation for their obligations. Besides, Sridhar Rao, a tycoon, established a textile company where the two spotted occupations had high salaries. The delightful couple advances, but Sridhar Rao announces that he will provide the job only to one family member. KK & Bhama decide to get back when they learn that KK’s sibling is terminally ill and will have surgery soon, which requires {{INRConvert|20000}}. To deal with their challenges, KK & Bhama gain posts at Sridhar Rao with a phony story that KK is a bachelor and Bhama is the only breadwinner of her family whose husband is paralyzed. Sridhar Rao leads a happy life with his wife & daughter Vasundhara (Vasu), a naughty girl. He delegates business charges to Vasu, where she acquits with KK and appreciates his charm & frankness. This forces Bhama to envy & lament at home, which KK consoles, affirming it is part of his profession. Sridhar Rao’s amoral brother-in-law, Giri, lusts for Bhama and vexes her, which grudges KK. On Bhama’s birthday, KK promises to gift a saree he designed, which Vasu snatches. Like this, KK & Vasu’s intimacy hikes ignite Bhama. Once, the whole staff proceeds to a picnic, where they sing, laugh, & dance. Then, Giri intrigues by appointing Bhama as Vasu’s dance teacher and accommodates her in their outhouse. Following this, Vasu forwards to KK to learn art on weekends when the couple plays the juggles. Bhama, currently known via their Manager, said that the elders fixed Vasu’s alliance with her cousin Seshu, who is not ready to return from abroad. If so, KK can marry Vasu. Indeed, Vasu pretends to be fascinated by KK for retrieving Seshu, and KK also plays a game to ensure job security.

Unbeknownst to it, Bhama’s anger turns into suspicion. At a time, Giri takes Bhama’s snaps and orders KK to design through them, which he adamantly rejects. Thus, furious Giri hurts him when Bhama cannot stand up and attends to him weeping. Here, Giri suspects something fishy and blackmails Bhama to fulfill his urge. Eventually, Seshu lands, which relaxes KK, and they all move to a [[Christmas]] party. The same night, Bhama trickily calls Giri and red-handedly embodies him before Sridhar Rao’s wife. Yet, she fails in resilience and walks out to home. Therein, she views KK & Vasu driving back from the midnight party and their intense closeness. Hence, Bhama misconstrues that her husband is betraying her, makes a big fuss, and declares to break their secret by tomorrow. The next day, KK humbly pleads with Bhama to hold her since it is the 60th anniversary, i.e., “Sashtipurthi,” of the Sridhar Rao couple, and they bestow a bonus. He convinces her that money is essential to both immediately and forges a soap actor, Krishnaji, as her husband. On the eve, the Sridhar Rao couple explains the dignity of marriage while a transformation occurs in Bhama. She also hears Seshu & Vasu’s conversation, comprehends KK’s virtue, and rushes remorsefully. KK slides her, and while receiving the presents after the ritual, Bhama outbursts as if unable to feel the agony. Whereat, KK catches & comforts Bhama, proclaiming he had done this to purify her heart and there would be no more obstacles between them. At last, the two seek forgiveness from Sridhar Rao, who compensates with {{INRConvert|100000}}, accepting it is his error. Finally, the movie ends happily with KK & Bhama continuing their marital life.
