Kaali thinks Jyothi loves him and loses his heart to her. On one occasion, he learns her past. Surya, who is the son of a peon, wants to become an IAS officer. Surya and Jyothi could not appear for the IAS examination due to a crooked police officer, Kotireddy Venkat Reddy, who tried to implicate them in a brothel case. As a result, Jyothi's stepmother throws her away from their house, and she gets shelter in Surya's house. They both fall in love with each other. Unfortunately, Surya dies in an accident, but he continues to live in Jyothi's heart. On learning this, Kaali decides to help her in fulfilling Jyothi's ambition and makes her an IAS officer.
