Plot
Hari is a lawyer who has no morals or scruples. He wins any case in any manner for money. He is married to Sulakshana who is handicapped. She is very rich by birth. He pursues her from college. She believes him innocently and marries him despite warnings from friends. Very soon, without listening to well-wishers, she writes all her property to him.
They live in a palatial bungalow far from the city.
Purnima is a dancer. Her mother Manorama is very ambitious and keeps taking her from stage to stage.
Hari meets Purnima and is smitten by her beauty and attitude. He wins her over slowly despite knowing that she has heard of him and his misdeeds.
She too falls in his love net and very soon falls in love with him without knowing his marital status.
Meanwhile Sulakshana comes to know about Purnima through her well-meaning family lawyer. When she confronts him, he kidnaps her and keeps her in a far away cabin. The world believes that she is dead as they find her broken wheelchair nearby.
Ravi, the local police, was the college mate of Hari and Sulakshana. Though he too loved her, he loses her to Hari thanks to his manipulations.
He takes up this case and comes investigating. He informs Purnima about Hari's real intentions. But by this time she realises that she is pregnant. With no way out, she starts bonding with him.
She follows him to the forest cabin. In a scuffle, Sulakshana kills her assuming she is her husband Hari.
Meanwhile, Hari wraps her body (assuming it’s Sulakshana) and drowns it in the middle of the lake.
By this time Ravi and his team have arrived and he is taken captive.
