Plot
A young woman Shantha (Rukmini) falls in love with an unemployed youth named Moorthi (Srinivasa Rao). To make it easy for her to meet him every day, she persuades her uncle Dharmalinga Mudaliar (Mani) to engage him as her tuition teacher. However, Moorthi is in love with another girl Meenakshi (Padma). A villain (Swami) who hates the hero succeeds in sending Moorthi to prison on a trumped-up charge. However, he escapes and takes to burglary for a living. Shocked by the problems faced by Moorthi, Shantha disguised as a man learns to ride a motorcycle and a horse, smoke and fight, and other such masculine pastimes. She starts punishing wrongdoers.
