Plot
editJagruthi Foundation, founded by a royal dynasty in Ananthapur, has thousands of acres and maintains schools, colleges, hospitals, orphanages, nursing homes, and other social service activities. Its trustee, Narayana Rao, holds it. Vikram Sarkar is a malicious mafia leader who wiles & squats the foundation to build a factory, exploiting a loophole in the absence of original documents. Narayana Rao files a case at the judiciary with a guarantee to produce the heir & the documents within a month. Narayana Rao & Sarkar are currently in the original heir's hunt. Sarkar appoints a professional goon named Beeku to slay them. Narayana Rao detects their whereabouts in UK. Raja Rao, the third generation, possesses the documents too. He sets foot to aid the public but tragically dies in a road accident, and the documents go missing.
Meanwhile, Balu is an aggressive taxi driver at Hyderabad who gets irritated if someone sounds the horn to his cab and makes their life miserable. He also falls in love with an incompetent local SI Bellam Sridevi. One day, Balu finds an Anglo-Indian orphan kid in his car trunk; where he names him Rajan and takes care of him and his drunkard father. The three of them get emotionally attached and become a family. Suddenly, Beeku abducts Rajan, who carries him to Odisha when Balu & his father are conscious via Narayana Rao that Rajan is the actual heir of the foundation and Sarkar brutally killed his parents. Balu's father accompanies Narayana Rao to help them with the case while Balu forwards to bring Rajan back. Midway, he accompanies two musicians, Seenayya & Shivayya, to provide a lift. Startlingly, Balu had already seized Sridevi earlier to support tracing Rajan. Rajan refuses to deliver the documents to Beeku, so he calls psychiatrists.
Balu, Sridevi, & the musicians in that guise land therein and flee with Rajan. Sridevi soon starts liking Balu and reciprocates his feelings. After reaching Ananthapur, Beeku catches Balu & the others, but the disabled man whose daughter has been shielded by Balu & Rajan protects them from the goons. Balu fights with them, and he sends Rajan and Sridevi to court. Sarkar terrorizes Rajan into lying by showing Balu danger, which compels him. However, Balu arrives in time, and Rajan provides the hidden documents in his Iron Man toy. Rajan also reveals Sarkar's crimes in the court and gets arrested. Sarkar attempts to shoot Balu & Rajan, but Sridevi shoots him at point blank, for which the Govt honors her with the gold medal that she dreams of. In the aftermath, Balu & Sridevi happily get married in the presence of their parents.
