Plot

Rao Bahadur Chandrasekharam (S. V. Ranga Rao) is a successful businessman and has a loving family with compassionate wife, Parvathi (Kannamba), 3 sons; Prasad, Sridhar and Raghu (Vallam Narasimha Rao, Edida Nageswara Rao, Padmanabham), 2 daughters, the widowed Mangalamba (Suryakantham) and Geetha (Girija), 2 daughters-in-law Lalitha, Kamala (Meenakumari, Mohana), and their children. Along with them, they adopt an orphan Ranga (N. T. Rama Rao), an innocent guy who is utterly devoted to the family. Meanwhile, Parvathi promises to make her childhood friend's (Prabhavathi) daughter Lakshmi (Savitri) as her third daughter-in-law, but Raghu refuses it because he is already in love with a girl Janaki (Sarada). To Keep up Parvathi's word, Ranga marries Lakshmi. Everything moves happily, Geetha also gets a rich alliance with Madhu (Haranath), son of Rajarao (A. V. Subbarao Jr.). But suddenly, life takes a U-turn, where Chandrasekharam is bankrupted, Geetha’s marriage is called off. There onwards, his family members' attitudes completely change and they start seeing Rao Bahadur in a low profile. Ranga could not tolerate it and reacts to them, so, they put the blame of theft on him. Seeing this, Chandrasekharam asks Ranga & Lakshmi to leave the house. Ranga gets acquaintance with a person Kotaiah (Relangi) and finds a job in a factory owned by Rajarao. Afterward, broken-hearted Chandrasekharam dies leaving his wife and youngest daughter to be in their children's merciless care. Finally, Ranga, with his simplicity and pure-hardheartedness, proves in the end that love and affection is the greatest wealth.
