Summary: Based on Veerendranath’s novel (cf.
Abhilasha, 1983), the unemployed Gandhi
(Chiranjeevi) claims that human relationships
are more important than money and bets the
rich Ram Mohan Rao (Rao) that he can earn Rs
50 lakh in five years. With Laxmi’s (Suhasini)
help he starts earning money, initially by
selling ideas, then in partnership with the
unemployed engineer Vidyarthi (Prasad),
becoming a successful industrialist. Rao tries to
destroy Gandhi’s business, but fails mainly
because Rao’s daughter Harika (Vijayashanti)
helps Gandhi. Laxmi sides with the workers
when they have a dispute with Gandhi and
eventually Gandhi, having proved his point,
throws it all away, rejects Harika, who was to
have been his reward, and returns to Laxmi.
