Plot
Kommalapati Chiranjeevulu (Jagapathi Babu) is introduced as the tenth pass village landlord who is happy with his farmer's lifestyle despite his riches. He marries the city-bred Neelima who soon squanders all his wealth in flop business ventures initiated by her rich friends. Amidst this, they have a son Vishwanath (Master Atulith) who adores Chiranjeevulu and prefers to stay with him when Neelima walks out on Chiranjeevulu for a better future in the city. Soon, father and son land up in Hyderabad as Chiranjeevulu decides to educate his son in a top English medium school so that he doesn't end up like him. The rest of the movie is about the trials and tribulations that Chiranjeevulu goes through to arrange the school fees while making sure his son does not see his struggle.
