Plot

The film begins in a village where two soulmates, Raja & Rashid, reside. As their families reciprocate despite the community, once, a dreadful dacoit, Kotinagulu, was about to slay a naive Ramadasu when Raja & Rashid's fathers impeded him. So, infuriated, Kotinagulu sets the village on fire, mingling his acolyte Ranga, which ruins the families. Raja & Rashid split, and Rashid's mother, Fathima, rears Raja. Meanwhile, Kotinagulu's wife Rukmini quits with daughter Shanti, by his diabolic shade, whom a Master shelters. Years roll by, and Raja, a gallant justice-seeking ruffian famed as Tiger and loves beauty, Rekha. Henceforth, the past still haunts him, and he is seeking vengeance. Whereat, he spots Ramadasu and initiates the hunt. Kotinagulu turns into Zamindar Jaganadham, which is his family's quest. Besides, Rashid is a CBI officer appointed to apprehend Kotinagulu and is willing to meet warfare. He forges as a burglar, Ustad, who absconded with precious diamonds. Ongoing, he is acquainted with Shanti and the two crushes. Parallelly, Kotinagulu captivates Rashid for the diamonds when he sees his family photo and comprehends the fact. Rashid smacks them and flies. Meanwhile, Kotinagulu knows Raja and allots Ranga to wipe him out when Ramadasu unveils him. Raja is behind and seized but succeeds in breaking the bars. Kotinagulu ruses to heist the precious necklace of the goddess in ''Mahakalijathara,'' which Raja bars. At that point, Kotinagulu views the Master and slaughters for the whereabouts of his family. Before dying, he entrusts their responsibility to Raja. Simultaneously, Kotinagulu abducts Fathima & Rekha and posts Ranga to gain his family. Till then, Raja takes them into custody. Being cognizant of it, Rashid strikes on Raja, with whom they identify. At last, they mingle and cease Kotinagulu.
