In guise of Ranga Raju, Gajapathi performs a lot of atrocities in the kingdom when an attack on a village, Ramanapalem, a young dynamic guy Raja (N. T. Rama Rao) chases him out. Meanwhile, in hunting, Gajapathi sets fire to Amarasimha's tent but a few loyal aides protect and secretly hide him in a cave. Now Gajapathi takes over the reign of the kingdom. After some time, in annual competitions at the fort, Raja suspects Gajapathi's dual face. He defeats Gajapathi and acquires the title 'Aggi Barata' when Vasavi likes Raja. She silently meets him, explains her situation, the state of affairs and cruelties of Gajapathi. Raja promises that he will protect her and both of them fall in love. Meanwhile, Raja's maternal uncle Bham Bham Basaviah (Ramana Reddy), is a great magician the villagers provoke him to beat powerful wizard Konda Buchodu (Mukkamala) who lives in their outskirts, but he fails.
