Plot

The story starts with four children who are scavengers in a railway station witnessing a child kidnapping incident, and upon discovery, flee from the place. They decide to commit suicide, fearing that the kidnappers may murder them. While attempting to commit suicide by getting run over by a train, they hear the sound of a baby crying in a nearby bush. Upon discovery, they find out that the baby has been assaulted, and rush him to the nearest hospital. After the baby recovers, they decide to raise him as their brother, name him Ram, and send him to school. The kidnapper escapes prison, and arrives at their residence. When the doctor asks him about it, he requests him to send his four brothers to school, while he works for them. The doctor then raises them as his children.

The story cuts back to present where in a remote desert, where the Konidela Ram kills a powerful dictator from Bihar named Raja Bhai Munna, only to wake up and find out that it is a dream. His family consists of four brothers, four sister in laws, and their children.

One of the brothers, Bhuvan Kumar is an election commissioner with his three other brothers as his subordinates.Ram is engaged to Sita, the daughter of a woman's rights activist named Puppy and. A local criminal named Ballem Balaram Bhuvan Kumar,for which Ram harshly answers to him.Balaram's father-in-law Pandem Parasuram challenges Bhuvan and asks him to apologize, for which Ram returns hard on him. This leaves Parasuram humiliated, so he approaches an encounter specialist, who gets to Ram's house and takes his whole family hostage.Ram reaches there and apologises to Parasuram, only to encounter criminals from Bihar,sent by the dictator Raja Bhai. After fighting the criminals,his sister in-law Gayatri asks Ram about it, to which he reveals the flashback. Raja Bhai is a local dictator in Bihar who threatened the Chief Minister. Therefore,the chief minister asked the central government and got Bhuvan appointed as the election commissioner. Raja Bhai held Bhuvan hostile, to which Bhuvan calls Ram, who was in Gujarat with his family and Sita in a temple. As Ram was travelling back to the airport, he receives the call, rushes to a bridge, and jumps on top of a train that is heading from Gujarat to Bihar. He kills 300 men single-handedly on a horse and gets captured to be taken to Raja Bhai. A fight ensues in which Raja Bhai kills Bhuvan and Ram wounds Raja Bhai severely, sending him into a coma. In the present, Gayatri is shocked terrifically on her husband Bhuvan's death. She asks Ram to take her to Bhuvan's pyre and later to Raja Bhai, the latter in where she challenges Raja Bhai to a duel with Ram. Ram approaches with the body of Raja Bhai's goon and starts the fight with him. He finally subdues Raja Bhai by cracking his bones and slashing his head with a sword attached to a tree.

The family reunites and moves on with a happy note.

Reception

Sangeetha Devi Dundoo of The Hindu wrote "Vinaya Vidheya Rama is a unique film that needs to be watched, especially for aspiring screenwriters and directors to know how not to write or make a film".[7] The Times of India gave 1.5 out of 5 stars stating "Boyapati becomes a pale shadow of himself as a storyteller. The problem with Vinaya Vidheya Rama isn't the deja vu factor but the fact that the filmmaker takes the audiences and cinematic liberties for granted".[8] India Today gave 2 out of 5 stars stating "Vinaya Vidheya Rama has a meaty story which could have been made into an entertaining commercial actioner. But no, Boyapati Srinu had bigger plans with the film. A plan so big that the story defies gravity, logic, et al(and others)".[9]

The Indian Express gave 1 out of 5 stars stating "Vinaya Vidheya Rama is like watching a Balakrishna action film on steroids. Clumsy and unconvincing screenplay".[10] The New Indian Express gave 1.5 out of 5 stars stating "If there is a plot and a story that is worth a notice, then it is lost between all the fights, songs, dances and random elevation dialogues".[11] Hindustan Times gave 0.5 out of 5 stars stating "The film itself feels dated. It is a mess that even Ram Charan – with all the weird stunts -- cannot punch his way out of".[12] Firstpost gave 1.5 out of 5 stars stating "Realism has absolutely no place in the world of Vinaya Vidheya Rama".[13]
