Plot edit
Jagruthi Foundation, which was founded by a royal dynasty in Ananthapur having thousands of acres of land and also maintains schools, colleges, hospitals, orphanages, old age homes and other social service activities, is taken care by its trustee Narayana Rao. Vikram Sarkar is a mafia leader who wants to grab the entire foundation to build a factory, showing a loophole that it does not have original documents.
Narayana Rao files a case in the court that he will produce the documents along with the original heir within a month. Narayana Rao and Sarkar both are in search of an original heir. Sarkar appoints a professional goon named Beeku to kill them. Narayana Rao learns that the original heir is in UK. Raja Rao, who is the third generation of the royal dynasty, has the documents and is ready to produce the documents to the people, but Raja Rao dies in a road accident and the documents are missing.
Meanwhile, Balu is an aggressive taxi driver at Hyderabad who gets irritated if someone sounds the horn to his cab and makes their life miserable. He also falls in love with an incompetent local SI Bellam Sridevi Raashi Khanna, One day, Balu finds an Anglo-Indian orphan kid in his car trunk, where he names him as Rajan and takes care of him along with his drunkard father. The three of them get emotionally attached and become a family.
However, Rajan is suddenly kidnapped by Beeku and taken to Odisha. Balu and his father learn from Narayana Rao that Rajan is none other than Raja Rao's son and his parents are brutally killed by Sarkar. Balu's father accompanies Narayana Rao to help them with the case, while Balu sets out to bring Rajan back. Two musicians Seenayya and Shivayya also accompany him in name of providing a lift. Sridevi, who was kidnapped by Balu earlier, accompanies him to find Rajan. Rajan refuses to provide the documents to Beeku, where Beeku calls psychiatrists for help.
Balu, Sridevi and the musicians dress up as psychiatrists and escape with Rajan. Sridevi soon starts liking Balu and reciprocates his feelings. After reaching Ananthapur, Balu and the others are caught by Beeku, but the handicapped man (whose daughter was saved by Balu and Rajan) protects them from the goons. Balu fights with them where he sends Rajan with Sridevi to the court. However, Sarkar tells that Balu will be killed and blackmails Rajan to lie in the court to save Balu.
However, Balu arrives reaches the court and Rajan provides the documents (which was hidden in his Iron Man toy). Rajan also reveals Sarkar's crimes in the court, where Sarkar gets arrested.
