It is the story of the relations and bonding between family members. Ranga Rao's family and Rajnal's family are neighbors. Ranga Rao has a brother. His brother and his wife are very kind at heart and their family is a very organized family, but Rajnal's brother Suryam (Chandra Mohan) is very angry with his brother and doesn't support him in anything.
