Somaraju, Prakash Raj, is a leading businessman and crime boss in Visakhapatnam. Mukesh Rishi portrays Mysamma, his close aide who handles his criminal deals in Hyderabad. Mahalakshmi, Gowri Munjal, is Somaraju’s beloved daughter, and her world is soon set on a collision course with ambition and loyalty. The rebel charm of Raja, Allu Arjun, arrives when he joins the same college as Mahalakshmi, catching her eye on the very first day. He impresses her quickly, and what begins as a spark grows into a quiet, dawning love. Somaraju, though reluctant at first, gives his blessing to the match, but with a heavy condition: Raja demands that Somaraju part with his entire property as a dowry. This bold demand sets the stage for a deeper investigation into lineage, power, and rightful claim.

The story then pulls back to a much larger: Bhupathi Raja, a king of land and influence, who is Mahalakshmi’s maternal uncle. In those days, a water shortage threatens the farming community, and Bhupathi Raja launches a rally to back the Polavaram Project. The momentum is immense, so much so that the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh agrees to meet him. Bhupathi Raja vows to distribute his vast land—4,000 acres—to the people who would lose land when the project begins. It is in these waters that tragedy bites. On the way to the naming ceremony for Mahalakshmi, Somaraju ambushes Bhupathi Raja with a gang of rowdies, and through fraudulent moves, he transfers Bhupathi Raja’s property to himself. The assault is brutal—Bhupathi Raja is left to die in the forest—yet he clings to life long enough to perform the naming ceremony, only to die moments later, leaving a void and a web of questions behind.

Raja discovers the truth about his own origins through Rangaswamy, his so‑called godfather, who reveals that he is not his father but a guardian figure. In a poignant turn, Rangaswamy and his wife sacrifice their own son in an effort to save Raja’s life, a sacrifice that reshapes the family’s power dynamics and lays bare the stakes of lineage in a system ruled by money and influence. This revelation intensifies Raja’s resolve to reclaim what is rightfully his.

To reclaim his rightful property and secure his future with Mahalakshmi, Raja faces Mysamma and the forces that have grown around Somaraju. It is a test of cunning, courage, and loyalty, and in the end Raja’s pursuit brings him to the hand of the woman he loves, Mahalakshmi, sealing a future that had seemed out of reach. The film threads together romance, family betrayal, and the hunger for justice, painting a world where young love collides with years of accumulated power and a city’s dark underbelly.
