Synopsis: Krishna Sastry (Krishnudu) is training under his father (M S Narayana) to become a proficient veda-pandit. The senior Sastry is not very tolerant of modern thought, and has high aspirations for his son. He and his wife (Hema) speak Brahminese (or what filmmakers think Brahmins speak at home) to and keep squabbling. A rebel rock-music-listening, streaked-hair-sporting younger son Vedam (Master Bharath) completes the family picture.
