Rao Gari Intlo Rowdy Story
The film begins with Kotigadu, a feared ruffian in his colony, who is immune to the fearsome reputation of everyone except the kind-hearted Gowri, who loves him. A trio of criminals—Alexandra, Bujjulu, and Periyyappa Devara—exploit Kotigadu for their illegal activities. When an ideal couple, Anand Rao and Vani, arrive in the colony, they attempt to reform him. After a clash with the trio, Kotigadu is falsely implicated in a homicide and sentenced. One night, he is unexpectedly acquitted and taken to Anand Rao’s bungalow, where he witnesses their wealth and compassion. Anand Rao challenges Kotigadu to stay with them for 10 days, after which Kotigadu begins to transform, bonding with Anand Rao’s granddaughter, Baby.
As the story unfolds, Kotigadu learns that Anand Rao is a Public Prosecutor whose sentencing of the trio’s children for molestation led them to retaliate, causing harm to Anand Rao’s family. Determined to make amends, Kotigadu protects Anand Rao’s family, confronts the criminals, and ingeniously recovers their children. In the process, Baby regains her memory after an accident. Kotigadu eventually captures the villains and surrenders, receiving a minimal sentence. The film concludes happily with Kotigadu’s redemption and his marriage to Gowri.
