Plot
editThe film begins with a flawed photographer, Rambabu, who runs a photo studio with an acolyte, Kittigadu. Customers always batter them for their skewed photos. Once, Rambabu acquits a girl named Saroja in a squabble, which flourishes into love. Under her guidance, he molds into a perfectionist in photography. Besides, Ranganatha Rao, a huge racketeer whose wife Neelima, warns him of Police apprehension case of not ceasing his activities. Destiny makes Saroja & Neelima mates, and with her advice, Neelima walks to Rambabu to learn about an automatic camera. At that time, she faints when it captures a picture of Rambabu holding her. Ranganatha Rao always hits the jackpot with the ideas of his sidekick, Jackal, but he disdains him. The blackguard currently wiles to assassinate his wife Neelima via his henchmen Veeru & Jaggu, and Jackal captures the scene as vengeance.
Meanwhile, Rambabu prepares for an all-India photography competition, for which he acquires several pictures and notices Neelima's corpse while developing. He notifies the Police when a futile Inspector Appalakonda muddles and seizes Rambabu. Anyhow, Saroja acquits him with actuality, and they dig out Neelima's corpse, and the instigation goes on. Hereupon, Rambabu, as a twist of the tongue, challenges to unveil the hitman, which terrifies Ranganatha Rao when the heels gain the random picture of that day and incriminate Rambabu as a convict. However, he absconds with Kittugadu, approaches Saroja, and surmises Ranganatha Rao as the killer.
Thus, Rambabu & Kittugadu chase him, and they spot Jackal extorting Ranganatha Rao Veeru & Jaggu with Neelim's murder evidence photograph when the miscreants slay him by beating him to hell. Before leaving his breath, Jackal swallows the negative. Now, the negative in his stomach is vital evidence of Rambabu's innocence, so they pick up the body, which leads to a hilarious chase. Forthwith, Rambabu struck in between Ranganatha Rao & Inspector Appalakonda. They all advance to a theater where they play Mahabharata 's spoof stage play. At last, Rambabu acquits non-guilty by extracting negative from Jackal's stomach. Finally, the movie ends happily with the marriage of Rambabu & Saroja.
