Prologue

A vehicle drives up to a graveyard and a policeman emerges from within carrying a wreath. He walks up to one of the graves and pays his respects. The policeman is revealed to be Murthy (Rajkumar).

Act 1

Murthy is in a train compartment with Indira (Geetha) and Vyasaraya (Vajramuni). Vyasaraya and Murthy start small talk about drama, music and stuff. Vyasaraya tells Murthy that he is taking Indira to a drama company. On goading from Vyasaraya, Murthy sings "Anuragada." Indira takes an instant liking to Murthy. Meanwhile, Vyasaraya gets down the train to get some coffee, sees a man in a long coat and hides from him. He almost misses the train and luckily Murthy opens the door just in time to let Vyasaraya in. Vyasaraya tells Murthy that the man in the long coat is a pimp preying on unmarried girls like Indira. He asks Murthy to look after Indira until he returns and gets off the train.

The man (Inspector Rajagopal) in the long coat comes to Murthy and Indira and tells them Vyasaraya is actually the pimp and has made a living cheating innocent girls like Indira. Before Murthy can tell the cop about Vyasaraya he gets down the train and Vyasaraya reappears. This time he has a knife; Murthy fights Vyasaraya and tries to find Inspector Rajagopal but cannot find her. In panic, Indira gets off the train and so does Murthy. They try to find a place to stay the night in Traveler's Bungalow. Indira is impressed by Murthy's gentle behavior ("Ee Kannigu Hennigu," a dream sequence song).

Indira reveals to Murthy that Vyasaraya paid Rs.1000/- to her poor mother with the promise that he'll ensure that Indira joins a drama company. Indira asks Murthy to take her to her hometown of Navilukere near Sagar, as he wants to go back to her mom and two younger sisters. He agrees to take her to her hometown in the morning; unfortunately in the morning Vyasaraya and his henchmen attack Murthy who suffers a head injury. Vyasaraya elopes with Indira not to be seen anywhere.
