Sai is an orphan who lies in court for a few bucks and stays in homes like a thief and one night he is caught by Savitri. He begs her to let him stay for that night. After hearing her story Sai decides to reunite Savitri with her family.
Sai (Nani) doesn't have a home to call his own, a bed to call his own, or a family to call his own and who lies in court for a few bucks. He's an orphan, and gets to camp at a different house each day. But for an orphan who has been keeping track of locked houses ever since he was a toddler, picking one for each night - not to steal, but to eat, watch TV and sleep - Sai seems to have done pretty well for himself. He has a bike, speaks English, wears good clothes, and has generally become a proper hero-material guy.
In one of his nightly sojourns, he comes across Savitri (Madhavi Latha), while trying to sleep in a house. He begs her to let him stay for that night. She makes fun of him. In a sudden turn she runs away from home. Later that night she is caught by him in a park. She tells him that she is lost. He thinks that she lost her memory and he makes her join him as a partner in his lies in court. Eventually his kind and gentle nature makes her fall for him.
In a dramatic circumstance she tells him about herself. She's no orphan like him, but actually has a humongous family with a no-nonsense, prudish, pigheaded father, Srinivasa Rao (Nasser) and is a daughter of Nassar. He's very fussy about his honor, reputation, etc. He wouldn't even allow you to sneeze without his permission. She is very interested to tour with her friends, but her father rejected her wish. Savitri runs away from home. She is kidnapped by a gang who decide to rape her. Sai tries to stay nearby. Meanwhile, her angered father decides that her daughter is dead. After hearing her story Sai decides to reunite Savitri with her family.
The only way to give a person like that a heart attack would be to tell him which century it is, but Savitri had gone several steps further - she bunked her pellichoopulu. It's not her fault, because she'd already made it clear to him that she has a Goa trip and several years of student life to enjoy, and that marriage isn't on the cards just yet.
Srinivasa Rao then disowned her, and that's why she's out on the loose, she explains to Sai. Sai takes up the responsibility of bringing her back home, and they both go to her village to appease her father. He wins Srinivasa Rao's affections by deceiving him and hinting to him that he's the son of his childhood sweetheart.
At Savitri's home, Sai spends his time blending in, by joking, singing and dancing. He even makes Savitri blend in, by putting her up stealthily in one of the rooms in the house. No one notices their daughter's back. You should remember that we're talking about a huge, traditional house with a huge, traditional family whose chief occupation is to be huge and traditional and not conduct irritating security checks in their rooms with metal detectors, sniffer dogs, or uniformed women poking into your handbag.
Ultimately, Sai succeeds in retrieving the alliance that got damaged, and the wedding gets fixed. The hitch is that the groom is the guy who tried to molest Savitri when she was out on the streets. Also, Srinivasa Rao has discovered that Sai's been faking it all along, and beats him up. Also, Savitri is in love with Sai now. This is complicated - you can change the groom, and you can change the names on the wedding cards, but how do you change the channel in a movie theatre?
