Kondayya (Chandra Mohan) and Seetalu (Rameswari) work in a touring theatre in a village and are in love. While essentially illiterate, they love watching movies and learn to recite the film dialogues and songs. A film producer who comes to the village makes a false promise to make Seetalu heroine in his films. Seetalu goes to Hyderabad along with Kondayya. After facing many difficulties, with the help of painter Sridhar, Seetalu finally becomes a heroine. Her success brings her relatives for want of her money. Kondayya slowly realizes that he cannot fit in that cine urban culture. He returns to the village. How the young lovers unite is the rest of the drama.
