Sakshi Ranga Rao

Balakrishna (Kamal Hassan) is an economically disadvantaged but multi-talented dancer, adept at the Indian classical dances . His simple and honest soul does not permit him to attain professional success in the commercial world that requires a certain level of moral laxness. Madhavi (Jayaprada), a wealthy young woman and a patron of the dances, notices his talent and acts as his benefactress, helping him secure his life-long opportunity of participating in a high-level classical dance festival.
