Plot

The film tells the story of a long-standing rivalry between two villages, Ramapuram and Raghavapuram, over the possession of idols of Rama and Sita. The conflict begins when Govindayya, the leader of Ramapuram, arranges the marriage of his daughter Janaki to Rangayya, a prominent figure in Raghavapuram. Their union brings peace between the villages, and a romance blossoms between Rangayya’s younger brother, Raja, and Govindayya’s niece, Lakshmi, the daughter of his younger brother Subbaramayya.

The situation escalates when the two villages inadvertently uncover the Rama and Sita idols at their border, leading to a violent confrontation. During the ensuing bloodshed, Rangayya’s father is killed by Subbaramayya, which prompts Rangayya to vow revenge. The conflict deepens, leading to the declaration of a bitter feud between Raja and Hari, Subbaramayya’s son. The matter is taken to court, and Rangayya is sentenced to life imprisonment, while Govindayya moves to the city with his family.

Years later, Rangayya is released from prison, but the legal battle over the statues continues. Raja and Lakshmi, now college students, rekindle their childhood romance, but Govindayya and Hari do everything in their power to prevent their union. Meanwhile, Govindayya’s cunning brother-in-law, Narayana, plans to marry Lakshmi to his son Varma. Tragedy strikes when Hari and Narayana accidentally kill Rangayya, which leads Govindayya to realize the futility of the feud.

In the end, Govindayya reconciles with Raja and Lakshmi, allowing them to marry. The film concludes with a joyous celebration in the village, where the festival of the deities is performed, symbolizing the restoration of peace and unity.
