Plot

Siblings Vijay (Chiranjeevi) and Durga (Lakshmi) are in pursuit of their sister's and father's murderers. Their father and sister were killed by three men, John (Hema Sundar), Javed (Kannada Prabhakar) and Janardan (Ceylon Manohar). Durga, now a police officer, wants the murderers to be punished legally. But, Vijay thinks that law and its loopholes can never track down the three murderers. So, he decides to track them down by himself and succeeds in killing John and Janardhan. This frustrates his sister and interrupts her investigations. She suspects Vijay, but due to lack of evidence remains helpless. In the end, Durga, trying to nab Javed, is kidnapped by him, but Vijay saves her and kills Javed.
