Plot
Once upon a time, a Kingdom, its callow King Pratap Rudra, exploited by his spiteful brother-in-law Gajendra, grabbed the authority and acted as a tyrant. Once, a gallant Ramu spots Gajendra molesting a girl when he shields her by striking Gajendra and makes him seek an apology. Princess Madhumati, in disguise, views it, and the two crush. One night, Gajendra discerns Ramu's presence in the fort when he stabs him in return and falls into a river. Chaya, a village girl, saves him, and she, too, loves him. Chaya expresses his love for Ramu, but he is silent. Meanwhile, the King fixes Madhumati's alliance with Gajendra, which makes Ramu land. Unfortunately, she is missing when Gajendra accuses Ramu of it and attempts to seize him, but he flies. After that, Ramu comprehends that Madhumati is under Gajendra's evil clutches. Hence, he rescues her and reaches the forest. At this, envious Chaya notifies Gajendra of their whereabouts and captures them. Now, Gajendra dictates to the King for capital punishment for Ramu, which he denies. Ergo, Gajendra imprisons him, too, and mandates to make Ramu blind. Here, Chaya plays and secures him. Finally, Ramu eliminates Gajendra and fuses with the two, and Pratap Rudra crowns him.
