Naveen, a manager in
UTI Bank, sees Maheswari, a sales girl in a shopping mall, and promptly falls in love and wants to marry her. Soon he goes in search of her and discovers she lives in a colony with Janakamma, whom he assumes is her mother. Naveen, with the help of the colony residents, tries to win her love. Janakamma, aware of his intentions, encourages Maheswari to marry him, but Maheswari refuses. It is then revealed that Janakamma is actually Maheswari's mother-in-law. Janakamma had married her only son, Prudhvi, to Maheswari. After enduring a physically and emotionally abusive marriage, Maheswari fatally wounded Prudhvi, knocking him unconscious. Both Janakamma and Maheswari flee from the scene and start a fresh life as mother and daughter thinking that he is dead. Maheswari falls in love with Naveen and agrees to marry him. Prudhvi finds them and shows up at the engagement party and blackmails Maheswari to get his 10
lakh loan sanctioned by Naveen, or else he would tell everyone the truth that they are still married. Meanwhile, Janakamma is convinced that the only way of stopping her son from ruining Naveen and Maheswari's wedding is to kill him. The wedding and Prudhvi's birthday fall on the same day. Janakamma makes
payasam for Prudhvi as she always does on his birthday and puts poison in it. Prudhvi, suspicious of his mother being with him instead of at the wedding, asks her to drink the payasam first to which she obliges. He then drinks it and dies. Janakamma arrives at the wedding in time and dies just after the ceremony. ==Cast==
