Raja Nandini Story
Once upon a time, Tirumala Nayaka and Rama Raju ruled the neighboring kingdoms with arch-rivalry. Plus, Tirumala Nayaka ruse by mingling with a dacoit Bhupati. Hence, Rama Raju’s son Jayachandra moves to negotiate with the reverse Emperor for peace and to seize black guards. Since Jayachandra fails, he covertly proceeds to Sridevi, the daughter of Tirumala Nayaka, on the guidance of her governess, Vimala, when she falls for him. Meanwhile, Bhupati ploys and clutches the fort with his nephew Kiriti and daughter Ramani and imprisons all including Jayachandra. Here, Ramani endears Jayachandra and proposes to him, which he repudiates and despises. Next, stanch Rajaguru Sadananda Swamy posts his disciple Gajapati to stick with Bhupati and gang to grab the secrets. Parallelly, Bhupati edicts the death penalty to Tirumala Nayaka when Rajaguru attempts to shield him, but in vain, and is hanged. To seek vengeance, Vimala traps Bhupati and slaughters him.
The next day, Ramani becomes a potentate who acquits Vimala and bestows the kingdom on Sridevi. Jayachandra senses her virtue and reciprocates her love. It begrudges Sridevi, so she subterfuges to wipe out her, but erroneously, Vimala dies. At this, Sridevi incriminates Ramani and merges with Kiriti. Anyhow, Jayachandra and Ramani abscond with the support of Gajapati. After landing in their kingdom, all suppose Ramani is Sridevi, afoot before their nuptial Rama Raju gets to the bottom via Sridevi, accusing Ramani of being a murderer. Ergo, Rama Raju expels her. After an intense argument, Jayachandra also quits in quest of Ramani. Amid this, Kiriti and Sridevi strike on the two when Jayachandra stamps out Kiriti and Sridevi makes an assassination attempt on Ramani, but alas, she only dies. At last, Rama Raju arrives, divulging the actuality when Gajapati grasps the eminence of Ramani. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the marriage of Jayachandra and Ramani.
