Ammo Bomma Story
The film begins with Gangaram, a deadly [[gangster]], who seeks the powerful [[Magician (fantasy)|wizard]] Malabar Baba and acquires the knowledge of Parakaya Pravesha, the mystical art of transferring one’s soul into another’s body. Soon after, Inspector Mahesh, a fearless cop, launches an attack on Gangaram. Gravely injured, Gangaram staggers into a post office and transfers his soul into a nearby doll. Meanwhile, Rambabu, a quirky [[ventriloquist]] in [[Eluru]], spends his days mocking people with his talent, much to the frustration of his mother, Parvatamma. He falls in love with his neighbor Lakshmi, daughter of Head Constable Nukka Raju, who disapproves of their relationship and intends to marry her off to his greedy subordinate Cola. One day, Rambabu unexpectedly receives the doll containing Gangaram’s soul, sent by his cross-cousin Sowmya from the US. From then on, Rambabu’s life turns upside down. Sowmya later returns to India to pursue a Ph.D. in Criminal Psychology and soon falls in love with Inspector Mahesh.
During a show, Rambabu ridicules his house owner Janardhan Seth, who retaliates by seizing his belongings, including the doll. Enraged, Rambabu storms after him, but the doll itself kills Janardhan Seth. When Mahesh and Sowmya arrive, they mistake Rambabu for the murderer and arrest him. Meanwhile, Gangaram flees to [[Hyderabad]] and contacts Malabar Baba to regain a human form. Terrified, Baba reveals that Gangaram’s only path to survival is to possess the body of the first person who knows his secret—Rambabu. With his henchman Deva, Gangaram sets out to capture him. A post-mortem report later clears Rambabu of guilt, but Gangaram continues his pursuit, terrifying him and convincing the public he is insane. Sowmya begins to suspect the doll is the true culprit, and when it attacks her one night seeking revenge on Mahesh, she narrowly escapes and informs him of the truth. Mahesh tracks down Malabar Baba, who reveals the only way to kill Gangaram is to shoot him between the eyebrows before he enters Rambabu’s body. In the final confrontation, Gangaram attempts to possess Rambabu, but Mahesh intervenes just in time and eliminates him. The film ends happily with the marriages of Rambabu & Lakshmi and Mahesh & Sowmya.
