Orphaned in her childhood, Sajjala is raised by Appakaka, an ex-army man, who was a dear friend of Sajjala's father. He fixes her wedding with Advocate Jayantrao, the son of the landlord but Ramrao Rank, the cunning and shrewd chieftain of the village can't bear this and convinces the landlord against Sajjala.
Instead of this, damping her spirit, Sajjala sends a letter through her loyal and trusted companion Bhalu, and rids Jayantrao of his misunderstanding. Police Inspector Khandekar, who is a friend of Jayantrao reveals the plot of Ramrao. When Jayantrao confronts Ramrao, he refuses shamelessly.
