Interspersed with humour, this family drama revolves around Satya (Raasi) and Harischandra (Rajendra Prasad), an ordinary middle-class couple. Though they have a son, Satya's brother promises them Rs.one crore to them on the condition that they beget a girl baby.
The dutiful husband and wife duo goes to a sage presumably to get his advice on how to beget a girl. The sage advices them to tell lies to everyone, and for good measure, provides them the popular adage abaddalu chebite aadapillalu pudataru.
In the process of lying and deceiving everyone, Harischandra ends up marrying another woman Meena (Gurlin), boldly brings her home and introduces his first wife to her as his maid-servant. What will the future hold in store for the bigamist and his family?
