Plot

[edit]

Babu (Nikhil Siddharth), an orphan brought up by his uncle and aunt, believes that they swindled his property. Once when his uncle chides him, he leaves home for Hyderabad to stay with his friends, whom he trusts. Kindhearted as he is, Babu believes that life is to be happy and make others happy. Babu meets Baby (Aksha) accidentally, and they become good friends. Whenever she is lonely, Babu and his three friends - a software engineer Ajay (Randhir Gattla), a security guard Kiran (Utkam Rudhraksh), and an assistant film director Subbu - cheer her up. Once during her birthday, some goons tease Baby, and Babu thrashes them. Later, they settle scores with Babu, but Subbu suffers grievous injuries. Upon the doctor's demand for 5 lakh for surgery, Babu borrows from a moneylender named Laddu (Narsing Yadav), on the condition that he would pay the money back in a week. However, they cannot pay the money and plead for two more days' time. In a bid to avoid risking their lives in the hands of the goon, Babu and Ajay go to rob a bank but get trapped in a robbery case which they had not committed. They suspect Kiran as the culprit. Babu and Ajay both get jailed. However, Babu befriends the jailer (Jaya Prakash Reddy) and a notorious criminal named Nannanna (Sayaji Shinde). At this juncture, Sonu Seth (Jeeva) enters and ensures their release. They come to know that another criminal named Nayeem was behind the robbery, and suspecting links between the criminal in the jail and Nayeem, Babu beseeches his help, and he obliges. The court rules that Nayeem is the real culprit. Babu, Ajay, and Kiran surrender themselves and the money in the court. They are jailed for six months for earlier leaving the jail. The film ends on a happy note with the reunion of the four friends and Baby.
