Plot



Once upon a time, there was a kingdom, Ujjain, ruled by Maharaj Raja Vijay Singh. His only daughter Princess Indumati falls for a valiant Ramu, a gardener in the fort. Knowing it, Maharaj challenges Ramu to amass wealth equal to that of his to marry Indumati. Parallelly, a wizard, Mantrik Husair wants to acquire a supreme power 'Pataal Bhairavi' which is in the form of the statuette and fulfills the wish of the person holding it. To acquire it, a dynamic person is required. Husair selects Ramu and traps him on an assurance that he will aid him in marrying the princess. Indeed, his ploy is to sacrifice him before the Goddess to obtain the statuette. After making an adventurous journey, both of them reach there, when Ramu learns Husair's evil play, so, he intelligently sacrifices him before Goddess and wins the statuette, consequently amassing the wealth. In return, Maharaj lives up to his promise. Meanwhile, Husair's apprentice Sadajapa brings his master back to life. Upon resurrection, Husair steals the statuette and kidnaps Indumati. Ramu pledges to retrieve Indumati and moves. After crossing many hurdles, Ramu protects Indumati, recovers the statuette, and knocks out Husair. Finally, Ramu marries Indumati and returns the statuette to the Goddess as it shouldn't be misused.
