Tirupataiah (Nazar) has a provision store. He works hard and reaches a stage of financial stability when he could feed his family and lead a comfortable life. However, the problem with him is that he believes everyone should work hard and should not sit idle. Tirupataiah is quite short tempered and gets irritated with the smalllest things. He has a son called Krishna (Bharat) and a daughter. He does not buy him good clothes neither does he provide for him a bike to go to college -because he thinks that they are just "fashion symbols". Tirupataiah's accounts are being looked after by one auditor called Balu, whose daughter Divya (Gajala) likes Krishna and proposes. But Krishna refuses her proposal because he is in love with his sister-in-law Janani (Gopika).
