Plot
The film begins at Bheemavaram, where Prof. Viswam, a respectable, resides with his wife, Annapurna & daughter. Once, he encounters a dog at the railway station, which chases him white on rice. Since compelled, he carries it home and plays hide & seek with his Annapurna as she detests the dogs. Gradually, a transformation occurs in her, too, and they adopt it. The master titles it Tommy, who rears under a shower of love, and the two share an eternal bond. Every day, Tommy gives a warm send-off to Master at the railway station and to greet him in the evening precisely on time. Now, a twist arises in the tale; one day, Tommy suddenly bars the Master from heading for duty, discerning some danger. Here, Master rebukes, proclaiming to stay at the railway station until his return. Tragically, as envisaged, Viswam Master dies of a heart attack. However, Tommy is waiting for him because he has not seen his Master for the last time. Even though Annapurna takes Tommy home, it often returns. Later, the family moves to Australia. For ten years, Tommy has been pining for its Master's presence at the same railway station, which makes the public kneel before its loyalty. At last, it leaves its breath one fine day therein, and they bury it next to his Master's tomb. Finally, the movie ends by showing Tommy merging with Viswam, Master in Heaven.
