Mangamma Sapatham Story
Once upon a time, there was a kingdom, and its King, Raja, was a tomcat. Once, he spots Mangamma, a plucky village girl with self-esteem, when he genuinely loves her and proposes. She denies it and mortifies him. When enraged, Raja challenges her to marry and lock her virginity throughout life as revenge. Ergo, Mangamma, too, vows to have a son by him without his knowledge and molds the child to whip him in his court. Here, Raja accepts it, marries Mangamma, and seizes her. However, Mangamma triumphs in covertly raising the child by digging a tunnel from there to her home with the aid of her father, Narasaiah, and sibling, Baja Govindam. Following, in the attire of a tribal, she entices Raja, consummates with him, and bestows his ring as a token. Next, she conceives and gives birth to a baby boy, Vijay, whom she poses as his brother’s kid.
Years pass, and Vijay becomes a gallant who falls for the Chief Commander’s daughter, Vijaya. Knowing it, his grandfather chides and sends him to his mother via the tunnel, where he faces her everyday torture by his father when Mangamma divulges the truth. Now, Vijay pledges to complete her vow, starts mocking Raja in various disguises, and whips him in court. Thereat, Mangamma intervenes, proclaims to Raja that Vijay is his heir, and confirms it with the evidence. At last, Raja transforms, apologizes to Mangamma, and hails her as his queen. Finally, the movie ends happily with the marriage of Vijay & Vijaya.
