MD runs short of money to fund his election campaign and gets his syndicate network to double the monthly roll-call. MD gets impressed by Parashuram and asks him to work for him, but Parashuram refuses and walks away. MD hatches a plan to destroy Parashuram, where he tactfully kills Parashuram's wife Usha and his son. An enraged Parashuram, with the help of a press reporter and his little friend Appu, takes law into his own hands and soon kills MD, Purohit, Kulkarni and Nayak with a parashu (a weapon of Parashurama).
