Plot

Once upon a time, there was a kingdom Kuntala where the royal dynasty suffers from a curse that the brothers have been killing one another for the past 7 generations. At present, the queen (S. Varalakshmi) gives birth to twins. On the same day, the King (M. Prabhakar Reddy) was murdered by his brother and he too kills him. The Queen feels that her children should not repeat it, so, she sends away one child with the maid. On the way, the maid gets killed by a tiger and the child was protected by Mangamma (Hemalatha) a shepherd woman, who rears him as her own. Years roll by, Gopi (N. T. Rama Rao) becomes a shepherd and in the fort, the elder Raja (again N. T. Rama Rao) becomes the king. Now the Queen wants to perform Raja's marriage with her brother Sripathi's (Mikkilineni) daughter Padmavati (Rajasri). But Raja is already in love with a wild beauty Rajani (Jayalalitha) and he always spends time along with her in the forest on the pretext of hunting. Veerabahu, (Rajanala) Raja's cousin, who is a crooked & cruel person, waiting to grab the kingdom by eliminating Raja. Mahanasa (Allu Ramalingaiah), his agent informs him about Raja's love affair, so he sends his henchmen in veils to capture Raja. Gopi notices it and protects him when Raja is surprised with the likeness between them and invites him to the fort. After seeing Gopi, the Queen suspects him as her twin son and gets afraid of the curse, so she asks Raja to send him away. Parallelly, Gopi & Padma fall in love. Once Raja & Gopi exchange their places. Meanwhile, various competitions held in the capital city on the occasion of full moon day. So, Raja starts to the fort, in between, he has been seized by Veerabahu's men. At the fort, Gopi is in a dilemma as Raja has not arrived, so, he himself participates in the competition and wins. Here Veerabahu learns that they are two, so, he brings Mangamma to the fort, but Gopi refuses to recognize her. The Queen calls Mangamma and finds out that Gopi is her second son. In anger, she reveals the truth to Gopi when he blames her for making him an orphan. Immediately he rushes to the forest and says apologies to Mangamma. Padma who follows him listens to their conversation. At present, Gopi plays a drama to protect the kingdom from Veerabahu by behaving himself like a monarch. He arrests Sripati, also locks up Padma and becomes arch-rival to Veerabahu. By scheming, various plans and tricks, he finds out the hidden place of Raja. Meanwhile, Rajani also notices Raja under the custody of Veerabahu, so, she too reaches there. Gopi protects Raja by putting his life at risk and stamps out Veerabahu. Then, the queen understands the love & affection between brothers, realizes her mistake and decides to reveal the truth, But Gopi stops her, as the world should not blame his mother when Gopi is about to leave, Raja stops him and changes his intention. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the marriages of Raja with Rajani and Gopi with Padma.

gollark: Maybe two years?
gollark: But mine actually does a lot of complex OS-ey things for sandboxing - basically, to stop people from meddling with its code, uninstalling it, sort of thing, but keep existing programs working, I have to try and confine stuff to a limited amount of functionality.
gollark: ComputerCraft computers are pretty feature-complete with just the built-in software, so most "OS"es are just fancy GUIs.
