A shocking announcement sweeps the nation that Tatineni Koteswara Rao, a simple man, wins a whopping 50 crores in the Paris lottery. This news triggers a frenzy among gangsters and thieves vying for the winning ticket. Due to the serious threats to Koteswara Rao’s life, Bachi is appointed as his chief security officer. Satyambabu, a wealthy individual, offers him all the resources to snatch the ticket.

Adding a twist to the tale, a boy named Habibi is delivered from Dubai, claiming to be Bachi’s son by his mother Parvati. This revelation disrupts Bachi’s life, and he initially attempts to get rid of Habibi but fails. The situation also creates a rift in his love life. Over time, Bachi develops affection for Habibi, and he discovers that another Bachi, a cat, had lived at his residence before. Simultaneously, Parvati plays a game of hide and seek with him, and unbeknownst to Bachi, he protects her from danger. Bachi endeavors to capture both Parvati and the cat Bachi.

As the plot unfolds, various elite groups, officials, and respectable individuals in society generously contribute to Koteswara Rao based on Satyambabu’s assurance. However, Koteswara Rao disappears one morning, debunking the lottery win as mere gossip, leaving Satyambabu bankrupt. The incident shocks the department, and they launch a manhunt for Koteswara Rao. A social welfare organization attempts to reclaim Habibi, who was mistakenly delivered. Still, Bachi, deeply connected to them, prevents it. Eventually, he locates Parvati in a hospital and learns that she is the sister of Venkatalakshmi, deceived by an imposter. Parvati entrusts Habibi to Bachi’s care, and she peacefully passes away.

Meanwhile, Koteswara Rao undergoes cosmetic surgery to change his appearance. Venkatalakshmi discovers this and informs Bachi. In a surprising turn of events, Koteswara Rao uses Habibi as a shield to escape, and Bachi pursues him. The revelation that Koteswara Rao is the one who deceived Parvati and that Habibi is his son shocks everyone. Koteswara Rao surrenders to the judiciary, and he requests Bachi to maintain secrecy and let Habibi continue to be considered his son. The movie concludes on a joyful note with the marriage of Bachi and Venkatalakshmi.
