Plot
editThe film begins with a funny couple Engineer, Raghava Rao & his wife, Indumathi, who have three progeny: Hema Sudari, Rupa Sundari, & Suguna Sundari. The first two have knitted to guys, Manmadha Rao & Subba Rao, stipulating that the property will be equally following his passing. Manmadha Rao is a reprobate who nags his wife, has a fling with his steno Lilly, and eagerly waits for Raghava Rao's death. The second, Subba Rao, is a callow who is a marionette of his shrew mother, Durgamma, and she nags the pair. The younger girl, Suguna Sundari, is a self-confident, idealist working woman who detests the dowry driving to various match cancellations, which perturbs her parents. As a glimpse, their neighborhood-green-eyed couple, Pulla Rao & Pullamma, begrudge the Raghava Rao family and frequently plot to vex them. Besides, Raghava Rao craves to buy a car as his life ambition. Thus, his dream came true with a remodeled foreign vehicle damaged in an accident, which he granted with a loan from Seth Kishanlal. Startlingly, Raghava Rao detects that the car holds the aura of its owner, Ram Swamy, who died next to the purchase. So, he is still revolving because of coveting the vehicle; the two mutually agree. Ram Swamy proclaims that the aura will stick to it until he fulfills his fascination.
Once, Suguna spots a paper ad bestowed by a young noble Christian, Satya Keerti David, which inspires her. Hence, she calls him, who tactically intrudes into their house, acquires her parents' faith and two crushes. David & Suguna cut a deal that he would occupy household tasks, resting as a house-husband while she earns. However, their play breaks, so Raghava Rao expels David when Suguna quits and wedlock him. Parallelly, Pulla Rao & Pullamma jealously hike, viewing Raghava Rao's surge when they move pawns to squash them. The monsters provoke Kishnanlal, who auctioned the car instead of his debt. Following this, they notify Manmadha Rao about his father-in-law's foreign vehicle. He forcibly locks it by tormenting Hema and forwards to picnic with Lilly. Next, Durgamma catches it, and then Pulla Rao's couple steals to destroy it. At every level, Rama Swamy's aura in the car conducts wonders, automatically mocks & annoys all, and reforms them after soul-searching. David gets vast applause from ladies for being a high-minded husband who expertly handles his house, which irks the remaining husbands. Ergo, they threaten to hinder his acts, but he is deaf-ears. Whereat, they onslaught him, whom the car shields. Like this, Ram Swamy molds his master into a trouble-free man. At last, the Raghava Rao couple encounters bankrupted Ram Swamy's wife & children, and they care for them as their fourth daughter. Finally, the movie ends happily with Ram Swamy's aura being sated and mingled into the universe.
