Plot
Raj, a successful gambler, lives in Hyderabad with his adoptive parents, who support his means of living. Tragedy strikes the family when his adopted father is diagnosed with liver cirrhosis due to alcoholism. Raj needs ₹20 lakh for his father's liver transplantation, which must be done within a month. While on a lookout for money, Raj is approached by his rival James, with a betting challenge. James gives a task to Raj to make Chaitra, a medicine student and the daughter of Bellary, a dreaded crime boss, fall in love with him before New Year's Eve, in exchange for providing money for his father's operation.
Desperate for the money, Raj takes up the challenge and begins wooing Chaitra, who reciprocates his advances. Bellary learns about their relationship and sends his henchmen to kill the couple on the night of New Year's Eve. Raj and Chaitra dodge the henchmen and escape to Srisailam. Bellary, with the help of his corrupt minister-friend Baireddanna and Baireddanna's Dubai-based son, begins a search for them. At Srisailam, James rescues the couple from Bellary's henchmen, but gets stabbed by Baireddanna's son, who also kidnaps Chaitra. An injured James reveals that he was sent by his father to protect them and reveals about Raj's past.
Past: Raj's father Suryanarayana is a respected landlord in Rayadurga, and his best friend Raghupathy is a business tycoon and Chaitra's biological father. Chaitra and Raj were childhood friends. Bellary, Raghupathy's brother-in-law, finds about the presence of iron ore under Raghupathy's land. Bellary, along with Baireddanna, decides to exploit the ore for their benefits. When Suryanarayana and Raghupathy objects, they and their families, except Raj and Chaitra, are killed by Bellary and Baireddanna. Chaitra is adopted by Bellary, who planned to kill her when she becomes an adult so that he could acquire Raghupathy's land.
Present: James reveals that his father, who is Bellary's PA, had revealed the past to Chaitra, who decided to avenge her father's death. Chaitra had learnt about Raj and his love for making bets from James, where she and James's father told him to trap Raj by placing the bet so that Bellary and Baireddanna can be destroyed using him. Learning this, Raj decides to avenge his father's death and kills Bellary, Baireddanna and his son at Rayadurga. Raj rescues Chaitra, who was badly injured by Bellary, and they distribute Raghupathy and Suryanarayana's land to the villagers.
