The film stars Nandamuri Balakrishna, Jayasudha, Lakshmi Rai, Sukanya, Saloni with Pradeep Rawat, Aditya Menon, Kota Srinivasa Rao, Murali Sharma, Rahman and Brahmanandam in supporting roles and music composed by Kalyani Malik.[3] Balakrishna played a triple role as a grandfather, father and son for the first time on screen in this film.[4]

Plot

The film begins at Rayalaseema with the assassination of solid leader Harishchandra Prasad, in which his younger son Raghu is paralyzed. After 15 years, a wicked politician, Kotappa, with a sly cop DGP Jaya Prakash, mingles with a brutal convict, Nagulappa, in jail. They all plot to wipe out Harishchandra Prasad's elder son, Ramakrishna Prasad, the prevailing umpire of the province, for political gain. As it is inevitable to set off in that region, the knaves target Ramakrishna Prasad's niece Deepti. Besides, Nagulappa molds a weapon at the post, i.e., Bobby, a professional killer, stunningly is the child of Ramakrishna Prasad.

Now the tale shifts to Mumbai, where Bobby is reared as an orphan by a mobster Dada. Despite a hired gun, Bobby abides by integrity and slays only the barbaric of society. He now knows the malefactors' actuality, peril, and scheme. So, he proceeds to safeguard his family, who acquaints & shadows Deepti and guards her twice without her knowledge. Plus, Deepti identifies him as his missing cousin by his features with her uncle & grandfather and the two crushes. Henceforth, Nagulappa lets catch hold of Deepti by backstabbing Bobby and gives a call to Ramakrishna Prasad. In the interim, Bobby attacks them when Deepti loses consciousness. On the verge of Nagulappa shooting Bobby, Ramakrishna Prasad acts up on him. Whereat, he enrages Bobby, warns him never to try to roll up with his family, and moves away with Deepti.

Thus, Bobby cleverly intrudes into his house, meets his mother, & grandmother, Lakshmi, and gains their affection, but Ramakrishna Prasad continues his loathe for him. At that point, he spots Ramakrishna Prasad, who cannot enter the house. Then, Bobby seeks reason, and Lakshmi divulges. Indeed, Ramakrishna Prasad is her stepson. Once, he faced the music of Lakshmi's crime, for which Harishchandra Prasad ostracised him, and till today on that ordinance. Today, the antagonist ruses and accuses Bobby of Harishchandra Prasad's homicide and incriminates Ramakrishna Prasad, too. As a flabbergast, Ramakrishna Prasad states it as fact when the entire family and public expel them, and the police seize them. Realizing the fiasco, Raghu springs back to life and spins rearward.

Harish Chandra Prasad is an arbiter whom the public esteems as a deity. He aims to build a huge steel plant to eradicate factionalism so that the terrain flourishes from four sides with employment. Accordingly, Harishchandra Prasad acquired foreign collaborators and fought to retrieve the government land squat by Nagulappa to construct the factory. He currently contests elections against the Govt, and Nagulappa conspires to kill him. At every level, Ramakrishna Prasad shields Harishchandra Prasad behind his back. So, to distract him, Nagulappa abducts Bobby, yet he does not yield and assumes that his son is dead.

Parallelly, NRI's from various countries arrive, whom Nagulappa grabs and notifies Harishchandra Prasad to surrender the lands. Being conscious of it, Ramakrishna Prasad assaults them and makes Nagulappa apprehended. Tragically, a baby Deepti lost her parents, whom he reared as his own. A few years later, a child stands before Harishchandra Prasad's residence. Suddenly, holding him at gunpoint, he fires. Nagulappa informs Ramakrishna Prasad that the hitman is his kid only. Listening to it, everyone regrets their deed. Amidst, Ramakrishna Prasad & Bobby get into a secret encounter with blackguards. At last, they cease them when Lakshmi apologizes and requests that he should step into the house. Finally, the movie ends happily, with Ramakrishna Prasad continuing Harishchandra Prasad's legacy.
