From a noted duo like Producer/director Ram Gopal Varma and Krishna Vamsi, the former as an eminent director of National repute and the latter noted for his finesse, a movie like Wife of Mr. Vara Prasad is a big expectation.

Having lost his parents at an early age, Vara Prasad (Vineeth) was raised by his grandfather, Ramabhadra Raju (S P Balasubramaniam). He grew up as a happy-go-lucky pleasure seeker, unmindful of the business responsibilities inherited from his grandfather. Believing that once married he would mend his ways, the grandfather tries to force him into marriage. When Vara Prasad refuses to be bullied into marriage, the old man tries another trick i.e. gets a heart attack. The doctors who attend on him pronounce that he will not live beyond 30 days. The family lawyer advises Vara Prasad to keep the old man in good humor in his last days by entering into some pretence of marriage. While on the look out for a girl who would be prepared to fake marriage with him, he comes across a treacherous fellow Thyagaraju (J D Chakravarty), who was fabricating financial difficulties to his girl friend, Bhuvaneswari (Avani). Vara Prasad promises a hefty amount to Thyagaraju on condition that his girl friend acts as his wife for 30 days. With Thyagaraju's connivance he takes Bhuvaneswari to his grandfather and introduces her as his wife. Bhuvaneswari wins over the old man with her care and affection. Meanwhile Thyagaraju, threatening to reveal the truth, extorts more money from Vara Prasad. Thoroughly bowled over by her love and affection and her good deportment, the grandfather wills all his property to Bhuvaneswari. Unwilling to continue the fraud, she leaves the place when doctors pronounce the old man out of danger.

Going home, she gets disillusioned with Thyagaraju when she finds him with another girl talking ill of her. She goes back to Vara Prasad and recounts what happened. He tells her that, in spite of everything, he is in love with her and wants to marry her if she is willing. When she agrees, he takes her to Thyagaraju and thrashes him for all his perfidy and marries Bhuvaneswari. Thyagaraju checkmates them by joining their household as a servant and revealing their falsehoods to the old man, who throws them out. He gains the old man's confidence to such an extent that he wills his property to him. Then he plans to get rid of the old man by hiring a professional killer, who feigns to get killed by the old man instead of killing him. Thyagaraju pretends to be sorry for his master. Meanwhile, Bhuvaneswari and Vara Prasad arrive on the scene with the police and explain everything - their collaboration with the grandfather and the killer - to catch Thyagaraju red-handed.

Director Vamsi, who earned for himself a distinct name for giving wholesome entertainment, did this movie. Vineeth and S P Balasubramaniam have done justice to their roles. As villain, J D Chakravarty excels in his role and acquits himself.
