Plot

Ramakrishna (Jai Akash) is Indian-born London resident, and a millionaire in the city. After a long tour around the world, he returns to India.

On his return he finds his mother Charanya feeling sad upon something, and finds out she miss her relationship with her long-lost family members, despite their wealth. At that point Ramakrishna does not feel anything for relationship, as he is wealthy and he has his mother by his side for uninterrupted love.

Suddenly, Charanya gets ill and dies. Ramakrishna who has seen nothing except for his mother's love and money, feels for someone to care about him for the first time. He searches for his long lost relatives in a village, mentioned by his mother earlier.

He wants to feel true love, so he disguises himself as a poor man and joins as a servant in Vijayakumar’s house, who is the Village's head. Later he finds out that Vijaykumar is his father, and feels happy about it. Vijay Kumar also feels happy for getting his son back. While he was planning to tell the village folks that Ramakrishna is his son, he dies of a heart attack.

Now, Ramakrishna is left without support for the second time in his life. The remaining part of the story narrates whether or not Vijaykumar's other family members accepted Ramakrishna as family. The story also involves the sudden love affair between Ramakrishna and the girl next door, Sridevika.

This movie highlights the importance of relationships and upholds the truth that love is more powerful than money and prestige.
