Plot
Nani, a middle-class youth with a photographic memory, stays at his uncle's house in Hyderabad. He has issues with his once dear brother's house because he dislikes his sister-in-law Jyothi, an RTO officer. Nani's Elder Brother asks him to go to Warangal to aid Jyothi in the new place. He falls in love with Pallavi, who proposes to him in the first encounter. Nani soon realizes that Pallavi is Jyothi's younger sister after she comes to live with them. She tells him that she has seen her during his brother's wedding and has been in love with him since.
Jyothi finds the love between Nani and Pallavi & tries arranging their marriage but is refused by Pallavi's father. Jyothi tries to get Nani a software job but he is not interested. Jyothi seizes two buses with the same number which belongs to Shiva Shakti Travels, owned by a gangster named Warangal Siva, who keeps threatening her. In the meanwhile, Nani realises that her sister-in-law has been sacrificing a lot for his sake like not starting a family and selling her land to let Nani get a job etc. So, when Warangal Siva threatens her, Nani, who just realized Jyothi's sacrifice, thrashes him in public.
Nani and Siva agree to a bet on Jyothi's life without letting her know about this bet and the episodes of Shiva planning her murder and Nani intelligently rescuing her forms the rest of the movie. Nani saves Jyothi, while Siva loses his memory and starts afresh. Nani marries Pallavi while fooling her father.
