    Plot

    Pedarayudu is a kindhearted and disciplined man. He sits on the ancestral throne in


    his village to do justice. He hears all the cases and gives solutions to the people
    and punishments to the wrongdoers. His wife Lakshmi admires and respects him. His
    brothers Raja and Ravindra fear him but also have a lot of respect for him as he
    has brought them up as his children. Raja marries Bharathi, the daughter of an
    industrialist. She dislikes Pedarayudu because of his verdicts and attitude and her
    husband for being so timid with his brother but later transforms after learning of
    the former's greatness from her father. Ravindra loves his paternal cousin,
    Bhupathi's daughter.

    In the flashback, Paparayudu, Pedarayadu's father, orders Bhupathi to marry his


    servant's daughter whom he raped, though he is his sister's son. His brother-in-law
    shoots him as he is disappointed by his verdict. Enraged, Paparayudu gives his
    final verdict before dying to abandon their family, and whoever visits his house
    will receive the same punishment and also not to share even a glass of water with
    them. Paparayudu also tells Pedarayudu "Whenever we give a wrong verdict, that
    moment it is said that we die." The moment when he says that, he dies.

    Bhupathi builds envy on his uncle's family and waits for an opportunity to take
    revenge on them. He hires a woman as the village school teacher and asks her to
    make Raja fall for her. She does so to save her father, who is in the hands of
    Bhupathi. He kills her and makes the villagers believe that Raja has committed the
    murder. Pedarayudu sentences ten years of exile for his brother's family. Bhupathi
    learns of his daughter's love and tries to kill Ravindra, with the help of his
    goons. Raja goes in rescue of him, and a pregnant Bharathi goes to Pedarayudu to
    convey this message. While Raja starts to take revenge on Bhupathi, Pedarayudu's
    aunt rushes to Pedarayudu, kills Bhupathi, and reveals the truth and tells that he
    punished his brother without committing any mistake and also told that the crimes
    blamed on Raja were really perpetrated by Bhupathi. Pedarayudu dies upon learning
    that he gave a wrong verdict, and Raja is shown taking his place on the throne.
