Plot Edit
Hema is a pampered girl brought up in a small town by her father. Timma and Mooga are her servants, but she treats them just like her friends. Hema is playful and acts like a kid in all matters even though she has reached marriageable age. She meets Prabhakara, her cousin, who is visiting their town after many years. Hema's father, who hates Prabhakara due to a longstanding family-feud sows the seeds of hatred in her mind as well. In a twist of fate, when Hema's father loses all his wealth and passes away, Hema and her two servants are left with no choice but to move in with Prabhakara. The self-respecting Hema takes up a job and strives to become self-reliant. When another twist of fate restores her wealth to her, she is forced to choose between the hate was taught and the love he has showered. The movie is an excellent study of the growth of Hema's character from a spoilt rich girl to an independent and mellow woman capable of taking a mature decision.
