Plot
Siddharth and his friends saves the people from floods at Ranga Saipet, Warangal district. Parakala Purushottam Yadav alias Pappu Yadav, a former gangster recommended for Assembly Elections by the CM, gets the attention of people by announcing a sum of ₹5 crore for flood victims. Siddharth learns that the food needed for the flood victims has been taken elsewhere to be sold, which is an illegal way to earn money and backing up the flood relief fund into the pockets of the politicians.
Siddharth saves the stock in time and takes it to the flood victims for distribution, thus annoying Pappu. J. Venkat Rao alias "Mondi Naani", Pappu's right-hand, threatens Siddharth and a strife develops between Mondi Naani and Siddharth. Siddharth later declares that his friend Ajay Kumar will be contesting the election against Pappu Yadav. Siddharth and his team get accolades from the people for this decision and start campaigning. To cut the good name of Siddharth's group in the people and to win sympathy, Pappu Yadav conspires for a bomb blast allegation on Siddharth and his team.
The mission gets accomplished and Pappu declares Siddharth and his team as terrorists. Pappu becomes the Home Minister and his marriage is settled with Varalakshmi, a talkative woman. Siddharth, with the help of college students, kidnaps Varalakshmi from the marriage hall, demanding that Pappu Yadav confesses his crimes in front of everyone. While being kidnapped, Varalakshmi develops feelings for Siddharth. Pappu Yadav chases after Siddharth to get Varalakshmi back, but Siddharth manages to prove his innocence and puts an end to Pappu, Mondi Naani and other crooked politicians.
