Ramu is a good lad boy molded as a spoiled brat by the pampering of his mother, Rajyam, who encourages him to commit petty theft. Years roll by, and he turns into the notorious Tiger Ramudu. Ergo, the government charges CID Prabhakar, who tracks him down. In a fierce encounter, Ramu's gang collapses, declared dead. He disguises himself as an honorable Mohan, mingles with a mate, Brahmam, and conducts swag. Once, Ramu rescues a girl, Radha Prabhakar's sister, and the two crush. Being unbeknownst, Prabhakar knits them. Soon, Radha conceives when Ramu affirms quitting the dark path. However, Brahmam assigns him a final task when Prabhakar detects his nefarious shade, and he absconds. Radha collapses, getting knowledge of it, and Ramu pleads with her to accompany him. Anyhow, she detests him, which makes him a wanderer. Radha exits his brother's house to pull him out of the fire and gives birth to a baby boy. After five years, Ramu backs in but receives a forbid from his wife. Then he decides to surrender, which Radha denies, and hides him secretly, concealing his identity from their son. Once the kid is ailing, Ramu seeks Brahmam's aid for a small number, but he rejects it. Hence, Ramu obtains it with forcible, which Radha discards. Meanwhile, Brahmam notifies Ramu's whereabouts to the police; by then, he flees, and Prabhakar arrests Radha. At last, to secure her, Ramu gets sentenced to penance.
