Story :
The story of the film starts with Madhavacharyulu (ANR), the temple priest of the village who is widely respected and is seen as a man who converses with Lord Krishna (Shoban babu) himself. He is of the variety of persons who follows God blindly and his unwavering faith in God and the temple trustee, Seshayya (Nagabhushanam) is never accepted by his younger brother, Gopi (ANR in a dual role), who is an atheist. He is the sort of a man who believes in his own luck and work rather than depending on some unknown force called, GOD.
Gopi turns as a thorn in the flesh of Seshayya who deprives the temple and the local school of its funds and rightful farm produce. Seshayya's acts are often countered by Gopi who thereby invites his brother's wrath. Added to these Gopi falls in love with Radha (Vijaya Nirmala) who is a close relative of Seshayya. Unable to bear with Gopi, Madhava expels him from his house and divides the ancestral property.
Gopi manages to convince the inspecting school official (Gummadi) to give authority to run school in his home and starts real education in his village. Seshayya tries to bring disrepute to Gopi and his brother by hiding the jewels of temple deity and passing the blame on Gopi. When search is going in Gopi's home, a treasure which belongs to Madhavayya's ancestors is found. While Madhavayya insists that the treasure should be bestowed to the temple, Gopi contests saying that the treasure should be used to develop the school. What happens next is the crux of the film.
