However, due to his family background, he is denied the opportunity to join the police force. In an unexpected turn of events, Vishwanath sees potential in Malli and recruits him as an undercover agent to infiltrate Daddy’s criminal empire.

Meanwhile, Daddy adopts an orphan named Chandra Shekar, known as Chandu, and manipulates him into becoming a police officer as part of his deceptive plans.
