Plot summary
Chanti (Ravi Teja), a soldier, arrives at his village for his father Madhav Rao's (Ranganath) funeral. He is bequeathed a huge property which he plans to use for his blind sister Jyothi (Revathi) to get her married. Unfortunately, the land happens to be between two proposed sites for a road in which the local MLA Sarvarayudu (Atul Kulkarni) has an interest, as it leads to his sugar factory. He offers to buy it from Chanti, who refuses, citing it as a memorial of his father. Chanti's sister is married to Raja Ravindra (Raja Ravindra), Chanti's army friend. However, the MLA kills Raja. Later, Chanti avenges his friend's and father's deaths, protecting his father's memorial site.
