Summary: Once upon a time, there was a king Vijayarayalu (S. V. Ranga Rao), who rules Vijayapuri, his wife was Sumathi Devi (Kannamba). On the occasion of their only son's birthday, Vijayarayalu gets an invitation from Emperor Veera Raghava (C.S.R.), who is an innocent and cowardly person. Taking this as an advantage, his younger brother Vikram Simha (R. Nageswara Rao) takes the reins of the kingdom. He cheats the daughter of the tribal leader Puli Dora (Mahankali Venkaiah). Because of their fear, he called for this meeting to eliminate them. At the same time, the tribal leader Puli Dora brings his pregnant daughter Gauri (S. Varalakshmi) to the court. Insulted, Gouri commits suicide in front of all. Puli Dora furiously says that he will take revenge. Vikram asks to arrest Pulidora, Vijayarayulu objects for this injustice and allows the tribals to go. Vikram arrests Vijayarayulu and sets fire to his palace. The Queen escapes with her son. Puli Dora helps Vijayarayalu to escape. Army commander Dharmadeva (Chittor V. Nagaiah) chases Puli Dora and Vijayarayalu. Puli Dora makes Dharmadeva believe that Vijayarayalu is dead and he changes himself as Rechukka. On Dharmadeva's way back, he finds Vijayarayalu's son and takes him to his house. Sumathi comes to know this and joins as a caretaker to the baby. The child is named as Vijay Kumar. After some time, Veera Raghava is blessed with a baby girl. Vikram tries to kill the baby, but Vijayarayalu rescues her and brings her up as his daughter.
Years roll by, Vijay Kumar (N. T. Rama Rao) becomes a great warrior and gets the appreciation of King Veera Raghava. On the occasion of Vijaya Dasami, the King announces Vikram's son Uttar Kumar (Rajanala) as the future king. Knowing this, Rechukka kidnaps him. Vikram orders Vijay Kumar to catch Rechukka within six months otherwise he will be beheaded. Vijay Kumar starts along with his friend Ayomayam (Relangi) in search of Rechukka. Ayomayam names Vijay Kumar as Pagatichukka. Once Vijay Kumar saves the princess (Sowcar Janaki) and they fall in love. On hearing this, Puli Dora takes them to Rechukka, Vijaya Kumar shows his valor and he was felicitated. Ayomayam is jailed. When Rechukka leaves for the border of the country, Pagatichukka relieves Ayomayam and Uttar Kumar from tribal captivity along with the princess and sends word to Rechhukka to come and release his daughter if capable. Rechukka and Pagatichukka come across each other and Rechukka is defeated. Vijay Kumar arrests and takes him to the fort. Sumathi identifies him as her husband and reveals that Vijay Kumar is their son. Vijay Kumar also listens to everything and says sorry to father. Vijayarayalu feels proud that his son has become a greater warrior than him and asks him to protect the princess who is the actual heir to the dynasty. At the same time, Vikram arrives, arrests them all and presents them in the court. In the court, Vijayarayalu brings out all the atrocities of Vikram. At last Rechukka and Pagatichukka stamp out Vikram and gives back his daughter to the King. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the marriage of Vijay Kumar and the Princess.
