Anji's parents are devotees of Lord Hanuman. Anji's father, an engineer, dreams to develop his village by constructing a dam to irrigate the surrounding areas of the village. Unfortunately, he and his wife are murdered by the cruel village head Brahmam and his henchmen. Anji now becomes an orphan, and the village's Lord Rama temple's head priest raises him as his own son. Anji naturally becomes a great devotee of Lord Hanuman and starts working as an assistant to the head priest. He gradually becomes everyone's favorite and is loved by all the people in the village. Paddu too develops love on Anji over time and starts coming after him all the time. Now once again, the village head, with the support of a black magician, plans to kill Anji to gain supernatural powers.

Lord Hanuman comes in disguise as a human to the temple and introduces himself with the name "Anji" to Anji. Anji allows Anji (Hanuman) to stay with him, and both become good friends in the process. Anji (Hanuman) secures Anji from the evil attacks every time and makes Anji perform the final rites of his dead parents. However, this is watched by some villagers, and they get frightened, assuming Anji (Anjaneya) to perform black magic. Many instances like this make the villagers believe that Anji has unseen powers. Anji finally kills the black magician, who attempts to kill Anji on behalf of the village head. When Anji learns of this, he misunderstands the situation and tells Anji (Hanuman) to go away. Anji (Hanuman) tries to explain, but Anji (Anjaneya) in rage tells the former to leave him.

Later, the village head, with the support and testimonies of some villagers of the instances which had Anji doing unreal things, holds Anji responsible for the death of the black magician and tries to kill him, claiming that he is performing black magic. But this is stopped by the head priest, who pleads the village head to not kill Anji and asks him to just expel him out of the village as a punishment. Anji gets expelled out of the village, but he does not care and comes again to the village. He is stopped by the villagers, but some of them start bowing down to Anji for the support he got from Lord Hanuman. Anji, unable to get their point, questions them and happens to realize that the Anji who has been with him all these days was not visible to any other villager except him. He even tells many instances which had Anji with him performing unreal things. But all the villagers say that they have not seen anyone with the name Anji beside Anji all these days.

Later, Anji realizes through the head priest that the one with the name Anji who has been with him all the time was none other than Lord Hanuman. Anji ultimately gets shocked and realizes his mistake. He hits his head with a brick in front of Lord Hanuman's statue out of remorse and falls unconscious. He witnesses Lord Hanuman instructing him to build the dam and name it as Seethamma Thalli Dam. Anji starts doing so, but the village head once again tries to kill him. This time, Lord Hanuman helps Anji and beats up the villains. Finally, Anji, with the help of the villagers, completes the dam, thereby fulfilling his parents' dream of constructing the dam.

The music was composed by Mani Sharma. Music was released on Maruthi Music Company.^[3] In a music review of the film, Sreya Sunil wrote that "Overall, Mani Sharma as extremely catchy tunes in this album".^[4]

Jeevi of Idlebrain.com opined that "The film picks up the momentum from the scene where Arjun descends on to the earth. And the movie is entertaining and educating as long as Arjun is there in the film with him making Nitin do miracles and also the philosophical conversation with Nitin".^[5] A critic from Indiaglitz said that "Vamsi's main problem, as a director, is that he has tried to cram too many things in too small a canvas. The result is he is successful only in a few things".^[6] Mithun Verma of Full Hyderabad stated that "In short, only the Gods can rescue this movie. But there's not enough reason for them, too".^[7]
