Plot
Rudra (Thoogudeepa Srinivas) is an alcoholic Village Man Living in his hometown with his niece, Parvati (Geetha (actress)) and Orphan Man Thimma ((M. S. Umesh)) Ramachandra Murthy(Ananth Nag) arrives in town as the new teacher and is offered a place to stay at the home of the trustee of the school, Shanti(Aarathi). Rudra and Shanti were in love once but couldn't get married. Her father, Basavaraj (K. S. Ashwath) was the town leader and opposed the match due to Rudra's illiteracy and lack of wealth. Shanti was set to marry a man that her father chose but he died on the wedding day and she remains unmarried. Rudra now spends his days drinking and fighting against the injustices meted out by Marthanda Prabhu (C. R. Simha) to the townspeople. Marthanda smuggles drugs, prints counterfeit cash and has murdered townspeople in his bid to become rich and powerful. He's assisted in his misdeeds by his nephew Pashupathi (Maanu), mistress Mayuri and right-hand man Kempa (Dinesh). Rudra turns over a new leaf and gives up drinking after Ramachandra Murthy's interference. Ramachandra also begins to teach Rudra. Parvati and Ramachandra also fall in love. Marthanda plans to steal the money the townspeople collect to make improvements to the school. His plan is discovered by the Panchayat Board executive officer, Gopal Rao (Loknath). Marthanda's group kills Gopal and sets it up to look like he was the thief. This sets Shanti, Rudra and Ramachandra Murthy against Marthanda as the trio work together to uncover the depths of his misdeeds and bring him to justice.
