Plot

Rambabu is a flawed photographer who opens a photo studio with an assistant, Kittigadu. After some time, he falls for a charming girl, Saroja, and her guidance makes Rambabu a perfectionist. Once Neelima, the friend of Saroja visits Rambabu's studio to learn about an automatic camera. During the process, unfortunately, Neelima collapses, and a picture is captured when Rambabu catches hold of her. Parallelly, Ranganatha Rao Neelima's husband is a smuggler she always warns to cease his crimes. So, he slaughters her through his acolytes Veeru & Jaggu when Jackal, another sidekick of Ranganatha Rao, captures a photograph as he always disdains him. Right now, Rambabu decides to participate in a photography competition for which he acquires several pictures, and while developing, he notices the corpse of Neelima in one of them. Immediately, Rambabu informs the Police, but sadly, he is indicted in the crime by Ranganatha Rao with a photograph. But he successfully absconds and decides to arrest the real murderer. Soon, he recognizes Ranganatha Rao as the culprit and follows him along with Kittugadu. Thereupon, they spot Jackal blackmailing Ranganatha Rao & his men by showing the photograph. So, they slay him, and before dying, Jackal swallows the negative. Here, the negative in his stomach is the only proof of Rambabu's innocence, so he carries the dead body and starts running. On one side is Ranganatha Rao, another side, Police are running after them. In the climax, they all reach a theater where they play a spoof stage play of the Mahabharata. At last, the truth is revealed by removing the negative from the Jackal's stomach. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the marriage of Rambabu & Saroja.
