But his joy is short-lived as Raja (Prabhakar Reddy) and his gang try to rape Vani for which she commits suicide. On her death-bed, Krishna promises Vani that he will take care of her family sittled in a remote village. Krishna reaches the village where he is astounding to see Vani's twin sister Rani (again Vanisri) who lives in the village with her mother Meenakshamma (Shantha Kumari).
