Papayya (K. V. S. Sarma) their neighbor gives them shelter. Papayya's wife Tayaru (Chaya Devi) & her sister Sundaramma (Suryakantham) are shrewd women and they behave rudely towards Lakshmi. Papayya’s son Vasu (Amarnath) is a kind-hearted person and he loves Seeta. Knowing this Papayya blames Lakshmi. Self-esteem Lakshmi leaves the house and tells Vasu to forget her.
