Hey Balwanth

Hey Balwanth

Krishna (Suhas) is a Guntur-based postgraduate who idolizes his father, Rao Balwanth (VK Naresh). Though Krishna wants to join the family business, Balwanth refuses and encourages him to work elsewhere. Krishna eventually joins an NGO run by Mithra (Shivani Nagaram) and the two fall in love. When Balwanth suffers a heart attack, Krishna takes over the family’s operations and discovers "Balwanth Lodge" is a front for a brothel. Distraught by the discovery, Krishna attempts to sell the property while hiding the truth from the idealistic Mithra. He and his friend Banka (Sudharshan) pretend the lodge is a "nature cure center" to maintain the deception. The situation escalates when Mithra’s grandfather (Babu Mohan) was found dead at the lodge, drawing the attention of local political rivals Durga Rao (Ajay Ghosh) and Mithra’s father PVB (Harsha Vardhan). Further problems arise when Durga Rao’s son Yuvan (Vennela Kishore) falls in love and wishes to marry a prostitute Champa (Sravanthi Chokkarapu) who works in that lodge. After a series of confrontations, Balwanth reveals the personal sacrifices and social circumstances that led to his career choice. Krishna accepts his father's reasoning and the two reconcile.
