Plot

Vijay is an honest police inspector. His past love Bharathi, a journalist, died in a road accident. From that day, he became a drunkard. Vijay comes as a renter to the house of a journalist Renuka, who had been divorced from her abusive husband SP Prakash because of his immoral character and lives with her three children. Vijay comes closer to Renuka's family and develops an attachment to her children.

Abbanna is a big shot in society. He's an actor but soon becomes a director for the Telugu film industry. However, he employs much violence in his movies, which angers the producer, effecting his dismissal. He decides to become an MLA to gain support and help others so everyone thinks he is a great man, but he is actually a big smuggler and gangster and also has underground contacts with terrorists. The Home Minister and Prakash are also their henchmen. Roja, a petty thief falls in love with Vijay.

Vijay always gives a tough fight to Abbanna and his gang and also makes his daughter's marriage with her lover without his permission, due to which Abbanna develops an enmity against Vijay. Meanwhile, Vijay gathers proof against Abbanna and his gang with Renuka's help, so Abbanna and his gang plan to kill Vijay. Abbanna puts a bomb in Vijay's house, but unfortunately, Renuka dies in the bomb blast. In anger for that, Vijay shows his violence against Abbanna and gang while they are doing a ceremonial ritual. That leads to his suspension. At the same time, Prakash throws out his three children from their house, and Vijay adopts them. Suddenly, Abbanna and gang attack Vijay, beat him very badly, and he is hospitalized. Roja takes care of Vijay and children, and he too starts loving her.

After the speedy recovery, Vijay spots a handicapped person Ebrahim, who shoots Abbanna in an attempt to kill him. When Abbanna's men encounter Ebrahim, Vijay stonewalls him. Vijay inquires Ebrahim regarding his animosity towards Abbanna, then Ebrahim reveals the past. Two years back, he was a watchman in Abbanna's factory. One day, he observes Abbanna's secret operations with terrorists and informs the police and press. Meanwhile, Abbanna kills Ebrahim's family and makes him handicapped; incidentally, Bharathi arrives there and covers the entire episode on video. They chase and kill her and created it as an accident, then Vijay understands that Bharathi didn't die in an accident and he also learns she has secretly hidden the video cassette. Vijay succeeds in acquiring the cassette. Abbanna learns of this, so he kidnaps the children and blackmails Vijay for the video cassette. Finally, Vijay protects the children, snaps all the baddies, hands over them to police, is rehired, and marries Roja.
