==Plot==
==Plot==
Suryam ([[Nandamuri Balakrishna]]) is convicted on charges of murder and sentenced to imprisonment for 7 years. Later, he escapes from the prison and abducts Vijaya, younger sister of the Superintendent of Police and hides her in a remote house far from the city. Vijaya's efforts to escape from Suryam prove futile. Suryam actually has no intention of harming Vijaya, but only wants to use her as a bait to achieve his goal of getting his hands on Kumar, son of Balagam Dhanraj. Suryam then reveals his flashback to Vijaya.
The film begins with a doughty Suryam produced before the judiciary as a murder convict sentenced to 7 years. Right away, he absconds from prison and abducts a sports star, Vijaya, the sibling of local [[Superintendent of police (India)|SP]] Indrani. Currently, he hides her in a remote forest area where its tribes regard him. Vijaya makes various attempts to escape but, fortuitously, is rescued by Suryam. Then, Vijaya understands his virtue, inquires about him, and he spins rearward. Suryam is a [[Trade union|trade union leader]] at Balagam coal mines owned by a spiteful Balagam Dhanraj who suppresses the workers under his toe. Anyhow, Suryam always encounters his malpractices. The chief engineer & his family maintain a cordial relationship with him.

Once, the engineer detects that [[Godavari]] water will drown the mines and notifies Dhanraj that he keeps a deaf ear for his greed. He walks to shield the workers, but it is too late. The water floods the mines, endangering the lives of hundreds. Suryam succeeds in bailing out the miners he can when he files a case against Dhanraj and claims indemnity. During the tribunal, Dhanraj intrigues by assassinating the engineer via his sidekick Dasu. Plus, he makes workers accountable for the catastrophe and calls off the lawsuit. Be aware that Suryam chases Dasu when the wicked cop, SI Prabhakar, screens him with fake alibis. Suryam raises an interstellar movement that shakes the country, intensifying his hunger strike. To distract his initiation, Dhanraj's son Kumar drags Suryam's sister Bharati away and molests her. Ergo, Dhanraj orders to slay her, but Suryam defends when Dasu and imprisons him.

Presently, Suryam aims to knit Kumar with Bharati. Hearing it, Vijaya endears him and is determined to aid in his mission. As of today, Suryam's stand-off Indrani for Kumar instead of Vijaya, while swapping Kumar, skips in the verge. Meanwhile, Bharati conceives, and Indrani knows the injustice that happened to her. So, she proceeds legally for justice but fails, which besmirches Bharati. Now, Indrani & Vijaya support Suryam in seizing Kumar, and he moves to the forest. On the way, he attempts to kill Suryam, but he is guarded by him when he reforms. Now, Dhanraj onslaughts on the woods, and heavy action occurs. At last, Suryam ceases the baddies, and the court declares him guilty with a death sentence. Finally, the movie ends with Suryam stepping for his penalty.
