Mahatma

              Dasu (Srikanth) is a small time goonda. He lives with money collected from extortion, settlements etc. He is assisted by a suspended police constable Paruchuri Venkateswara Rao, Uttej etc. Dasu comes in contact with a lawyer Krishnaveni (Bhavana) who helps him get bail every time he commits a petty crime.

               Krishnaveni slowly begins to like Dasu after seeing his humane side. A big time politician Dada (Jayaprakash Reddy) takes Dasu under his wings and tries to use him in settling a dispute over the construction of Fab City. Dada asks Dasu to bash up the people who are opposed to the Fab City as they stand to lose their houses.

                Dada promises to make Dasu a corporator and then an MLA. For this he asks Dasu to surrender to the police and take the murder case of his son on himself. Dasu flatly refuses and then decides to contest against Dada himself.

                 Bhavana helps Dasu to give up his violent ways and adopt a path of non violence and preached and practiced by Mahatma Gandhi. The rest of the story is whether Dasu becomes an MLA and whether he succeeds in stopping the construction of Fab City and restore the land to the poor people who are about to be displaced.
