Soudamini Story

Once upon a time, there was a kingdom called Malwa whose royal couple, Vikramasena and Saudamini, were childless. However, the queen conceives by acquiring a boon from the sage Bodhayana. Anyhow, the negative status occurs with the arrival of an evil courtesan, Vilasavati, who entices and puppets Vikramasena. She also sows vicious seeds in the king’s mind, which makes him suspect Saudamini’s purity and ostracize her. In a forest, a benefactor, Gopala, guards Saudamini, who delivers a baby boy, Udayasena. Years roll by, and Saudamini molds Udayasena as a gallant. Besides, in the fort, promiscuous Vilasavati occupies the throne by clawing chief commander Kamapala, and he seizes and plucks off Vikramasena’s eyes. Knowing his plight, Saudamini edicts Udayasena to shield his father and starts his journey. Midway, he halts at Kuntala for the blessing of Bodhayana, establishes his path, and crushes on its princess, Hemavati.

Besides, Kamapala lusts on Hemavati and impels King Surasena to knit her with him, which Hemavati denies. Discerning her daughter’s love affair, Surasena imprisons the turtle doves who escape. Unfortunately, they detach in between when a wizard seizes Hemavati. Eventually, Saudamini moves to Malwa in quest of her son when Kamapala rounds up her. Parallelly, Udayasena, with an angel’s aid, learns how to recoup his father and triumphs over divine flowers from heaven. On his return, he secures Hemavati, too, and lands at Malwa, but Kamapala destined him to die. At last, the angel rescues him when he defeats the plotters, retrieves his father’s vision, and reunites his parents. Finally, the movie ends happily with the marriage of Udayasena and Hemavati.
