Spoilers ahead

Starring the heroine Simran in the lead, this sprawling tale unfolds around Kantamma, a shrewd hotel owner who tightens her grip on every guest and every family member. She torments her stepchildren, Vasu, and his three sisters—Sangeeta, Sarala, and Saraswati—until a heated revolt erupts when Vasu refuses to stand by while his sisters go unfed and he runs away. Years slide by, and Kantamma’s fortunes dip further as a charming rival, the Srikakulam Chittamma, entices customers away and chips away at her control. Into this precarious scene steps Abbulu, who joins Kantamma’s hotel as an employee and, through sheer effort and savvy, turns the business around.
