Salutations to Lord Srirama
the Supreme being.

There is the mountain

It is like Ayodhya for Andhraites.

No sage like VaImiki
mentioned about it.

While divine couple Sita
and Rama dweIl here,

... Devotee Ramadas sang
devotional songs...

this place became famous
as South Saketapuri.

The great devotee Bhadra begged
Sitaram to appear to him again.

He observed severe penance.

pleased by his penance Lord
Vishnu appeared on Earth.

Bhadra requested him to appear in
Treta Yug as Rama.

To fulfiIl his promise Lord
Vishnu took birth on the earth...

who married the daughter of
Mother Earth.

Accompanied by his divine shell,
and the discus on either side...

with bow and arrow, along with Sita
and Lakshman he appeared to Bhadra.

Devotee Bhadra requested Vishnu
that he turn him into a mountain...

... and Vishnu in his reincarnation
as Rama should dwell on its peak.

And the mountain be
known as Bhadragiri.

O God Vishnu l pay
obeisance to you who

blessed me with your
gracious appearance

with your consort Janaki (Lakshmi)
and hoIding the divine bow and arrow,

adorned by divine weapons, the shell
and the discus on either side

and the Adi Seshu as
shoulder ornament

accompanied by brother Lakshman.

There is the mountain Bhadragiri

which is Iike Ayodhya for Andhraites.

Dammakka, you made us
walk since morning.

We are dead tired. How long do
we waIk in the jungle?

My Lord Rama told me that
he is here and I should find him.

Told me in my dream to light
a diya and offer him holy food.

He told you so in your dream!
I wilI kill you with this.

How can something said
in a dream materialize?

My Rama won't Iie even in dream.

Search seriously.
You will sure find him.

You are too devoted.
Don't get carried away in it.

You treat us with your herbal
medicines wheneverthe need arises.

Just do it till you die.
Don't trouble us Iike this.

Today she says it is Ram.
Tomorrow, something else.

Don't take her words seriously.
Let's go back.

Wait listen to me...
Lord Rama...

O Lord Rama, Mother Sita,
Lakshmana,

are you hiding in ant hiIl?

Rama, your life is fulI of hardships.

You were born, soon went
to forest, lost your wife.

Lead a tough life.
Why did you, again, hide here?

Why did you get caught
by me, an old woman!

l can hardly do anything foryou.

Who will look aftery'ou?

Who will build a temple fory'ou?

Who will perform the puja (worship)

...and take care ofyou?

Gopanna, you have come in time
to save the idol from falling.

All of you touch the feet
of Rama, our protector not mine.

Idols are gIowing!

This year our Sriramanavami
celebrations are going to be expensive.

So, carry' these idols carefully.

Hey, parrot, stop there.

Where are you?

flower, when wilI my
Gopanna come?

parrot, my Gopanna has
not come yet.

Hey, parrot,

Cousin, l want that parrot.

Come closer. l want this parrot.
-You...

l cannot leave with you
sitting on me.

Greetings to birthday girl.

Greetings without a gift
are unacceptabIe.

May l give you a gift
which both of us can have?

What is that?

You...

You want this parrot, right?

lt is so cute! Bring it to
home in a cage to play.

Come to me O parrot.

Singanna, announce in the
village that, on the eve of...

.. Ramanavami celebrations,
we will feed the entire village.

ls it okay?
- Okay.

O God! Feeding an entire vilIage
is not easy. lt costs a lot.

Recently you had distributed
alI the grains to them...

.. in the name of drought.

We wilI be on the roads soon
ifyou continue such things.

You tell him, Gopanna.
- Okay. Mother.

Mother .. l've a doubt to clear.
-What's it?

How could l breathe when
you were pregnant and carry'ing me?

That is what is God's miracle.

l see! I heard that frogs live
enclosed in huge boulders. True? - True.

What about food forthem?
- Of course, it is God.

When he can perform
such miracIes,...

... won't he provide for us if
we become poor by charity work?

l got what you mean.

l'Il send necessary' groceries
as yourfather wants.

Send Chandrayya.
- Okay, mother.

Gopanna, here is
the cage you wanted.

lt is nice. O parrot,
it is fory'ou.

What is the news from the village?
- May l tell you, Gurrugaru?

Why do you call me so?
- Because you are always snoring.

l'lI break your head rascals.
Siddhu, What's the news?

Your brother-in-law, with
grand Ramanavami celebtations

is going to turn our village,
Nelakondapalli like Ayodhya.

l want you to talk about me,
the great learned man.

Not about my brother-in-law.

About you...
May l teIl you?

You are making mockery
of the viIlage.

Who said so? l'Il stab
him with a cane to...

Greetings, brother-in-law.

Greetings...

Whatever my brother says
sounds like poetry.

My brother is like
Paramanandayya.

I hate that comparison.

l like comparison to king
Bhojaraju who is a Iearned man.

Comparing to a gIutton
would be appropriate.

l'll break your head
you, rascaI. Get lost.

Brother-in-law, where is
my niece?

Niece!
you ugIy looking fellow!

HeIloN sister-in-law.
Hasn't our son-in-law, Gopanna come?

Our son is Gopi and your daughter

Enough ofjokes.
My daughter is endowed..

.. with many good qualities.

l'll get her married
to a Revenue officer.

WiIl you please...

BrotherN even kids pay no
attention to what he talks.

You please come and have snacks.

Go. Snacks are okay but don't
plan for wedding reception.

Gopanna and our Kamala
look made for each other.

Shut up else
l'll stuff it in your mouth.

Greetings to would
be father-in-law.

Nonsense. Anyway, why is
this parrot here?

Today is Kamala's birthday.
I brought it as a gift for her, uncle.

The parrot is cute.

Kamala is playing
in the backyard.

Go and give it.
- l'll. -Wait.

Wait. Why are you giving
the parrot as gift?

Because gifting rat
won't be nice.

lf you want to chaIlenge

me with wordsN...

... show your knowledge in it.

Okay. Here is the riddle.

What are youN to a
newly born baby of...

..yourfather's daughter-in-law's
brother'sN son's, would be wife?

What! What!!

Here l repeat...

My father's daughter-in-law's
mother-in-law'...

He cannot answer?
- He will answer.

l don't think so.
-What if he does?

Gopanna marries Kamala.

lf he fails?
- Our Kamala marries Gopanna.

You cannot. - Of course l can.
-You can what? - Riddle.

Today l'll explain wedding
of Rukmani.

Show it to us, fast.
- Be patient.

Fast. -Wait. For how Iong?
- l'lI show you.

He is Krishna.

She is Rukmani Devi.

She fell in Iove with him.

He is Sishupal.
Has eyes on Rukmani.

Rukmani asked Krishna
to come. He came.

He was taking away Rukmani.
Sishupal obstructed them.

Krishna got angry'
and raised his sword.

l think my blouse knot got Ioose.
Tie it.

Then Krishna chased away Sishupal.

He shaved off Rukmi's head
and beard.

Not so tight please.

He married Rukmani.

He hugged Rukmani tight.

These hands feel
like my cousin's.

Cousin!
When did you come?

Before your blouse
knot came off.

Where are my friends?
- Gone. -When?

Before l tied the knot
ofyour blouse.

Get lost. - Did you call me
here to send me off?

This is my gift for letting
me tie the knot ofyour blouse.

This isn't like a cage
but Iike a dome.

lt represents our love.

He is the father

She is would be daughter-in-law.

He is to be born baby.

That gorilla is you.
- l'll break your head you, fool.

Have you soIved the puzzle?

I raked my brain but
couldn't solve it.

No! Should l solve it?

Let's see.
- Okay.

Who is yourfather's
daughter-in-law? - My wife.

Who is her brother?
-Yourfather.

Who is my father's son?
- l know. It is you.

That's itN uncle.

That's it! Oh, how did l

As per our bet... - Get Kamala
and Gopanna married.

No way. My would be son-in-Iaw,
Revenue officer wiIl arrive anytime.

FatherN stop the cart.
-Why?

HeyN girl... wait.
Are you married?

Not yet.

So never mind. Shall we marry?

lt was a hard slapN father.

Enough of nonsense. Get in,
you, idiot.

Mother... -We have come
to see an aIliance.

lt isn't right to mess with other
girls and get beaten up, you rascal.

She looked docile. I didn't
expect to get a slap.

Now you know. Get in.
We are getting late. - Okay.

Brother is what l heard true that
a boy is coming to see Kamala.

Yes. They have come and resting
in the guest house.

You are not invited.

Brother-in-law, we decided
when KamaIa was born that..

... she and Gopanna would
be husband and wife.

Now l don't think so.

Bother, he has no value for promise.

Shut up. l cannot give my girl
in a poorfamily.

They spent away everything in the
name of charity and devotion.

For relationship, friendship or even
fight, equal status is necessary.

l won't marry' off my daughter
into a poorfamily.

I'm getting her married to
a would be Revenue officer.

You may leave.

Cousin...

Who broke the bow of
Lord Shiva?

Answer me. Who broke it and

Don't bother. He makes such noise
while reading horoscopes.

You look at the bride while
I look at her horoscope.

MotherN ask the bride to come fast.
l'm eagerto see her.

Father, Kamala is like

Her cheeks are round.

You may ask questions

Come this way.

We have to change with

The parrot is cute.
Ask your questions fast.

- That he wants to marry her.

What did Sita say?

She showed him a strand of grass
which meant he is worthless.

Are you teasing me!

What did she say?

Nothing.

Did she show you anything?

Showed her skilI in direction.
-What do you mean?

Tell us what she showed you.
-A strand of grass.

How do you find their horoscopes?
- Totally opposite.

l don't know what to answer.

Should l tell you the fact?
- Of course, yes.

Your entire family is going
through a bad phase.

Never mind. l'll perform rites
to do away with it.

And get her married to him only.

Good. Let me congratulate you.
That is the spirit.

lfyou too are brave
l'lI tell you something.

lt's okay with us.
We are ready forthe wedding.

That's the spirit.

lt says that whoever marries
her will undergo imprisonment.

lmprisonment!!

Let's get up.

Mother, father, let's go.

Please, don't ruin my
daughter's life.

You mean, we ruin our
son's life? Wife, let's go.

Brother-in-law...

Now my daughter can

PIease calm down.

UncIe, whethery'ou agree or

Brother, say yes to engagement.
-Yes.

maternal uncles? -Yes.

Greetings, brother-in-law.
Was the journey comfortable?

Enough of separation

Please listen to my pleas

Your touch subdues my senses

l love to hear you say so

These moments are
precious to us

We never experienced
such pleasure before.

Don't take my invitation lightly

These sweets are like pills
to intensify our romance

These beds are gateway to heaven

These bodies are instrumental...

...in culmination of our joy

My body knows no tiredness
Don't stop me

That's enough.

Wife, what is your
parrot saying?

Husband, l've a doubt.
-What's it?

A male parrot is called
'Ramachiluka'. -Yes.

Then, what is a femaIe
parrot called?

How about calIing it
'Sitachiluka'?

Very nice! l want to unite
this parrot with it's mate.

You are my brothers, but are
like my fatherto me.

His charity work made us poor.

We have nothing left

You are holding high posts

Can l give an honest answer?

Or lie to remain in your

Tell me the truth.

You must be aware that our region

The king must realize that
your duty doesn't end there.

What!! ExpIain clearly.

Get me an ice cube.

Who is there?

Assume that this is the
fund you had sent.

Now, pass it on to the
next person. - Okay.

By the time it reached the
needy people

this is what happened to
the money you had sent.

Excellent! Your nephew
is great Iike you two.

Let's keep watch to prevent
such a thing in future.

king, provide him some
employment.

How can your order
not be obeyed?

Hire him as Revenue officer
of Hasnabad.

Your brother-in-law,
Mattesaab is holding it aIready.

Transfer him as the head
of Golkonda jaiI.

Come to me O my beauty.

You are so beautiful.

He is inside.
-We are guards.

Good days are coming

O river Godavari...

Dancing of peacocks whose feathers

Joy of the cows who

the joy of the jumping
squirrels that helped Lord Rama...

... indicate, indirectlyN

the arrival of good
times for Lord Rama

Sacred verses are so
nice to hear!

Better is the new officer.

We have not come to praise
him but to stab him.

I'll stab him when
l find an opportunity.

When is that?
- Don't nag me.

HaiI Revenue officer Gopanna.

You got the job because your
uncles buttered up the King.

Count your days you sit
on my chair.

Let me count the problems
people here have first.

And then how to end them.
l'm not afraid ofyou.

You will be in trouble.
l'll kill you.

Stop. You should send off the
ex-officer with due respect.

l'll show you what respect is.

l'll go to Golkonda, make my
sister, the queen teach you a Iesson.

What! - This coach isn't for us
but forthe new officer.

Now you are an ex-Revenue
officer. - Don't say it.

Don't go behind the horses.
They wilI kick you.

Right. Horses have no
loyalty like dogs do.

They kick the ex officers.

lt is my personal experience.
-You rogue...

Pantulu, l don't know what
you do but you must...

... build a grave for him soon.

We brahmins cremate the
dead bodies.

Keep them inside.
- Okay.

Keep these in the prayer room.
- Okay.

What wilI we do with such
a huge house?

We are only two.
lt is alI ours.

I go in the morning
and return by night.

Wonder what you will do
in the meanwhiIe.

l'll wait foryou like
Mother Sita waited for Rama.

Sir, troubles from head of
our vilIage are increasing.

Okay l'll make enquires about
him and take action. Relax.

Load them into our vehicles.
Please, stop. - Do it.

How do we survive?

You are paying only half of
the agreed money for 2 years.

You die ifyou cannot pay up.

Don't say so, sir.
Last year we suffered drought.

Before that we had storm.
You know everything.

l know. That is why l'm
taking what is available here.

l'm taking away your daughter
against your Iast year dues.

pay up and take her back.
Put her on the cart.

Stop. What is this atrocity?

SirN you have to save
me from these rogues.

l know who rogues are.

Are these peopIe your
bonded labour?

How can you chain them and
force them to work?

You gave them loans against
which you robbed

everything they possessed,
robbed the entire vilIage.

This is the end to your
authority.

End of bonded labour.

The farmer has the upper hand.

The land belongs to
whoever cultivates it.

Villagers who cultivate under
the agreement will own it.

l'Il prepare legal documents
to that effect.

Hail the Revenue officer.

God knows nothing.

What are you talking
to yourself?

Why cannot the God make the
mangoes grow in aIl seasons?

What!! You want to eat
raw mango?

l feel like carry'ing you.

Why?- Carrying you means
carry'ing my baby.

You know Gopanna
is going to have a kid.

Kid will be born but won't
have father. - How come?

l won't tell you but do it.
What do you mean?

Madam, hereN forthe celebration
of lighting lamps on 14th day

of the month Kartik, you are
teaching girls to dance.

But things there are bad
with master.

He is roaming all over
the villagesN jungles.

Here men are crueI like
animals. You must warn him.

No one can stop him from
doing what he wants.

Bye, sir.

Gopanna, you will never
come back.

l love you.
l'll fuIfill your wishes.

Serve you pure honey. Come.

So, you are Shurpanaka's sister.

Better don't mess with me else

O hoIyN almighty...
Omnipresent, Rama

O Rama who has SeshuN the
chief of serpentsN as his bed

O Rama, who is worshipped by
the God Brahma and other gods

Hail Lord Rama
Hail Sitarama

O Rama, who is served
by Guha

O Rama, who has Shabari
as his great devotee

O Rama, who lives in the
heart of Hanuman

O Rama who is the
Lord of Sita

Husband!.....

Gopanna is not caught yet!

Mattesaab is angry that
l did nothing to Gopanna.

Gopanna is angry that l couldn't
find out who wants to kiIl him.

What do l do?

You are caught in the
cross fire. - Shut up.

Sir... -Yes. - Gopanna is going
to attend the office from tomorrow.

Look into this first.

Kamala, l'm going to office.

You are going to office a long
time afterthe accident.

Before that a visit to the
old lady who saved your life...

Good that you reminded me.
Let's go together. Come.

Rama, l've brought
fruits fory'ou.

Are you hungryN dear? Eat.

You old Iady, you are feeding
defiled fruits to God!

Have you gone mad?

She is not mad.
She is deeply devoted.

Yes. Devotee Shabari tested
the fruits fortaste...

before she offered to Rama.

We called it great devotion.
This woman is like that too.

Sorry. We shouIdn't
have said it.

Don't just sit. He is the
Revenue officer of this district.

Grandma, we came to thank
you for saving my life.

You are the Revenue officer!

Sir, you are a righteous
and a just officer.

Look at my Lord Rama.

He appeared to me in my dream.

Asked me to worship him.

l am worried who will
serve him after my death.

l've to take care of my Rama.

BecauseN this is the place
where Rama held court when...

... he came to jungles when
he was exiled from Ayodhya.

Close by is the place
where Sita and Rama visited.

Come with me. l'll show you.
- Let's go, KamaIa.

Grandma, bring them back
before the night fall.

Beware of insects too.
Let's leave. - Come with me

This is the cottage where
my Rama stayed.

Here is the place
Rama and Sita spent time.

This is where mother Sita
dried her saree

This is the garment
Rama had worn

These are his holy foot prints

These are the un-erased
marks of the deer

These are the stones where
mother Sita applied

..turmeric and kumkum.

lt is here Lakshman drew a
line for Sita not to cross.

Here are the marks
of abduction of Sita by Ravana.

This is the holy place
where Rama walked.

How can there be no
shelter for my Rama here?

Yadagiri, here are the papers
the Revenue officer has sent.

Distribute to all.
- Okay.

What are you staring at?

They are the documents.
You own the farms.

They don't have your signature?

No? lt took me the whole
night to sign those papers.

You haven't signed but wrote
'Srirama' on alI of them.

You are supposed to come for
meals. Why are you sitting here?

l'm talking to you.

Oh! the cunning deer...

My Lord, look at the
goIden deer.

lt is beautiful.
- l want it to keep as pet.

How can Rama not fulfilI
your wish?

No, O Rama. That is actually
demon Maricha in deerform.

Don't go. Mother Sita will
get into trouble. Don't go.

Lakshmana, your brother seems
to be in troubIe. Go, see.

Mother, it's impossible that
my valiant brother can have trouble.

You refuse to go as your
intentions aren't good.

Mother, it is all demons' tricks.

Lakshman is a noble man.

lf he leaves you alone, you
have to go to Lanka. Don't do it.

Alms...Alms...

Mother SitaN don't do it.
This person is Ravana in disguise.

Don't cross the line.

Saint, accept the alms.

Why are you hesitating?

Don't you know the rule that...

... you have to walk up to
me to go offer alms?

Don't look scared. l'm Ravana
the great king of Lanka.

You... Ravan....

Rama is omnipresent

He is our soul

He had shown his supreme power
in many incarnations of his

The sunN the moon, the stars
the gods are alI part of him

All the worlds in the
Universe including the Bramha,

... the rivers, forests, animalsN
all elements and the

holy scriptures
... are all part of him.

HANUMA

holyRama

I have been searching for you,why did u left me

why this kind of life againN

Praise the Lord Krishna
of Brindavan

Rama, you are gracious.

By your graceN people have responded and

enough money is collected for
the construction of the tempIe

l pay obeisance to you.

Your son is born at the
auspicious time.

Look, Goddess Lakshmi came
walking to you herself.

Our son is born at the
beginning of the nobIe deed.

Let us name him as
Raghunath.

You spoke what is in my mind.

Move aside... So much money!

I cannot believe 7,00N000
is collected.

A revenue officer Iike Gopanna
was never born, nor will.

Nothing is impossible
if God is kind.

Out of this total collection,
1,00,000 coins are towards taxes.

Send it to Golkonda treasury.
- Okay.

Pantulu, you write a letter
to the king for permission to...

... build the temple, with the
remaining 6,00,000 gold coins.

This is people's money.
The king wiIl surely permit it.

What is this?

Money sent by Gopanna.
Open your eyes and see.

How much is it? -You wilI get
a heart attack if l tell you.

You fooI... The king called
him a dog in front of us.

Nothing happened to him.

Someone spit on his face.
Nothing happened to him.

How much is it?

More than 1N00,000.
- O God! Mre than a 1,00,000!

Whatever above 1N00,000 is mine.

Okay. One lakh is..

Look at the letter Gopana
has sent first. - Hold it.

Gopanna seeks
kings permission to...

You want permission!

He gets permission only if
this letter reaches the king.

Gopanna, l'll burn you and your
newly born baby like this.

What happened?
- He just had milk but stiIl crying.

Don't cry, dear...

Allah (O God)...

Which God is gracious,
divine and grants salvation?

Who is wise, noble and kind?

Who is the most beautiful
and beloved of all

Who eIse but Lord Rama

Cherish the name 'Rama'which
is a driving force for all

The Lord, one of the
Trimurthys

Who is omnipotent

Who is omniscient

Whom the 7 worlds worship

Who is gracious,
and omniscient

That is Srirama

Cherish chanting the name Srirama

lt wiIl lead you throughout the life

You have enchanted us with your
song in praise of Rama.

Both of you are aIikeN when
it comes to devotion.

You have proved, with your song,
that devotion knows no boundaries.

You are...
- l'm Kabir a devotee of Lord Rama.

l think you are a Muslim.
How come you are devoted to Rama?

His grand father's name
too was Kabir.

He became devotee of Rama
because of his grandfather.

The five elements, the skyN
earth, waterN fire and the air...

... are above all races
and religions.

Lord is omnipresent.
How can man made obstacles...

... prevent us from
worship him?

I'm blessed by the visit of a
magnanimous person Iike you.

Please come to my house
and bless it.

Kamala, please bring water to wash
the feet ofthis revered man.

Welcome. This is our house.

House!

This tree shade is our house.
He resolved to stay here until...

... he builds the temple for God.

lt's a great resolution.

Chanting the name of 'Tarakarama'.
would make alI resolutions fruitful.

Yes. Lord Shiva has initiated this
sloka(hymn) to his consort parvati.

l'll initiate it to you.
Your wish wilI surely be fulfilled.

l'm blessed

Noble man, you have bIessed me by
initiating with 'Tarakamantra'.

I'll teach it to all. l'lI begin
to write 'Sriram' a crore times.

You have collected huge amount.
Why didn't you begin construction?

l've sent letterto the king
requesting for his permission.

l've not yet received permission.

You don't need his permission
but of Lord Rama's.

That is done long ago.
Don't delay a good deed.

Coming Dasami is very auspicious
as perthe sage Vashisht.
That is done long ago.
Don't delay a good deed.

Coming Dasami is very auspicious
as perthe sage Vashisht.

lt is the best day to lay
foundation forthe temple.

What is best! My foot!

Because of that Rama spent
14 years in exile.

AnywayN how can a Muslim fix
auspicious day for ourtempIe?
Because of that Rama spent
14 years in exile.

AnywayN how can a Muslim fix
auspicious day for ourtempIe?

Why are you angry'?

Answer my question
if you have guts.

lf your answer is right,
l'll shave of my hair and grow beard.

lfyou cannotN you have to shave
offyour beardN grow hair like me.

l think we are not worthy enough
to talk about sage Vashisht.

At the auspicious time he fixed,

Rama's footware were declared
to rule the kingdom.

The great sage knew that Rama was
Lord Vishnu and he was born to eliminate the evil.

Auspicious time was chosen forthat purpose.

lfyou teach me again,
l'll pulI away your beard.

You keep saying I'm a Muslim.

But we have became reIatives
when Lord Venkatesha (Vishnu)

married Bibi Nancharamma. (a Muslim)

Relatives! My foot.
Don't make me angry else...

Your head wilI be at his feet if
you say one more word against him.

O Saint, foundation fortemple
wilI be laid at the time you fixed.

He is coming.

Hey Ram, my lord...

Where are you barging in?

To see Rama and to wash his
holy feet with river Godavari waters.

Don't talk nonsense.
l won't approve it.

Once the instaIlation of idol is done
non-Hindus cannot enterthe temple.

God doesn't mind it.

That's enough. One push and
you will rolI down the mountain.

Stop it. Let that great man get in.
- Then we have to go out. -Yes.

What is in your stomach?

Rice he ate today morning.
- Shut up. lt is empty.

What is in your brain?

lt is fuIl of...
- Shut up. lt is empty.

Never mind ifyou are not allowed
to go in. The Lord came to you.

O great man, forgive me.

l committed a sin by insulting
a devotee like you. Forgive me.

Hail Lord Rama.

Great devotees, I hereby
make arrangements for...

... all to come here irrespective
of their caste or religion.

As a beginning to that,
l orderthe celebration...

... of Lord Rama and Sita's wedding
to be conducted in open air.

Is this how the dolls marriage
celebrated?

They are not dolls but
God Rama and Goddess Sita.

l missed your wedding
ceremony in Treteyug.

lt is fuIfilled today
because of Gopanna.

l have also realized that the great
devotee Ramadasu is our Gopanna.

l could read your mind, Hanuman.

ln future Gopanna will be know as
Sri Ramadasu (servant/devotee of Rama)

Gopanna, your son feIl
in the ditch and died.

My son fell into the
ditch and fell asleep.

You used to work day and
night to build the temple.

He asked me once that why
doesn't his father sleep.

l toId him that you cannot sleep
until the construction is compIete.

Then he said, he too will
sleep when it is complete.

The construction is complete
and my son fell asleep.

O son of Raghu dynasty,
beloved of Sita

Protector of devoteesN
you are fulI of graciousness

PIease be kind to me else...

...life would be difficult for me

O lord, who built a bridge
across the ocean to...

... kiIl the demons and
to rescue Sita

... who has the Bhadradri
mountain as your abode...

...l seek your kindness

Hanuman, save the boy's life.
-As you order O Lord.

Mother...
- Son...

lt proves that Lord Rama
is here.

lt is all a drama by him to
make this place a holy place...

where devotees come to pray to
their God and be blessed.

KingN our Mattebhai came to
tell you something.

Tell meN what it is.

You appointed Gopanna but his
deeds wiIl empty our coffers.

What is he doing?

He is instigating people saying
that farmers are land owners.

He told them to occupy
forest lands too.

He is issuing legal
documents of ownership.

ln the name of compulsory' tax he
collected 6N00,000 coins...

...and built Rama tempIe
without your permission.

He has aIready buiIt it.

How did it strike you to chant
Rama's name while playing?

You too keep chanting Lord's
name while doing chores.

Like father, Iike son.

You instalIed Rama in the tempIe.
He instaIled you in his heart.

He appeared in my dream and named
you 'Ramadasu'(servant of Rama).

HaiI Sri Ramadasu.

KamaIa, Rama has blessed me to
be his servant. l'm blessed.

Why are you here?
- For spending government money

forthe construction oftemple
the king ordered fory'our arrest.

Come with us.

You will take him onIy over
dead bodies.

l've to obey him.
Stop. You obey me as l'm your
officer. King is my officer.

l've to obey him.

KamaIa, what's this? Where am l going?
l built the temple for Rama.

Forthat I'm going to
Krishna's birth place (jail)

Take care of my Lord Rama. Conduct
pujas and prayers at the temple.

What wrong has he committed
to deserve this?

Everyone has to go through
what is written in theirfate.

Why did you misuse government
money without my permission?

lt is not misused but
put to proper use.

Didn't you think my permission
was necessary?

l've written to you for it
but there was no reply.

Any prooffor it?
- This Pantulu.

SirN l cannot keep quiet
nor open my mouth.

You have to talk.

l advised him to seek your
permission but he turned it down.

He announced that he is the king
and went ahead with the construction.

Now he says something else.

What do you say now?

lfyou believe this crook's words,
you may punish me. l take it.

How dare you say so!

l'm telling the truth.

Everything here will be ruined but
my Ram temple will stand forever.

The powerN luxuries and possessions
are short lived, but not the temple

But it wiIl be written in history that
this temple is built during yourtimes.

Look at your nephew!

Stop arguing with elders and
accept your mistake.

Excuse me. With elders permission
l want to mention elders mistakes.

Elders mistakes!!
What mistakes?

Why was Taramati palace
and Bhagmati palace built?

What was the purpose to build a bridge
between GoIkonda and Bhagyanagar?

Besides this, Charminar
is built as a token to...

You built graves foryour dead
relatives around Golkonda.

Why? What way are they useful
to people

Why is peoples money spent
on these with whose permission?

We never questioned you before.

I'm compelled to open my mouth
now because l'm challenged..

When you can build palaces
as a token to affairs and...

... can build graves in
memory of dead relativesN...
When you can build palaces
as a token to affairs and...

... can build graves in
memory of dead relativesN...

... what is wrong in buiIding
a tempIe for our Rama?

Our Lord Rama was an
obedient son.

He was a one woman man.

He was an example for brotherhood.

He was a just ruler.
An emperor.

Not just in Bhadrachalam but
every viIlage in lndia wilI have his temple.

Please understand.
Stop listening to lies.

Come to Bhadrachalam.
Visit the tempIe and be blessed.

Keep alive the harmony between
the Hindus and the Muslims.

Shut up. Stop the nonsense.

How dare you question me
instead of accepting your mistake?

Imprison this arrogant man.

Torture him severeIy.

Mother, l heard that father is
imprisoned and being tortured.

l don't forget your
name even in my dream

Why don't you answer to our pleas?

You have saved even the
squirrels before

l believed in your kindness
towards your devotees

Throw chilli powder.

You are known for your kindness.

Please be kind to us
Bhadrachala Rama

You wiIl.
- Let us go.

Some noise is coming from inside.

After eating these he
will become quiet. Drop it down.

O Rama, your name is
so sweet to chant.

lt is sweeter than fruits
banana and dates

Sweeter than the sweet rice,
and fresh butter

Stop it. Stop it l say.

Have you tortured him?

Has he become docile now?
Agreed to say sorry' to me?

Why don't you talk?
What is he saying?

He didn't say anything.
But sang a nice song.

Song! What song!

ShouId we sing and show you?

God, your name is very sweet.

Are you Mattesaab?
- NoN why?

You Iooked like him. Are you Matte?
-No. - Then who is he?

Hey, who are you? - How can you be
so rude to new inmates?

Forget it and tell us what crime
have you committed to come here.

An young girl feIl in the
well when she went to bathe.

l brought her out and
wiped her dry'.

l'll kiIl you. How can you
be punished for saying a life?

l came to know laterthat she
is the 3rd wife ofMattesab.

You... -What will you do
ifyou find Mattesab?

I'll thrash him like we wash
clothes. - Then? - Dry him.

Then? - I'll make mincemeat
out of him Iike a butcher.

Here is the knife and
he is Mattesab. Do it.

You make mincemeat out of me

Mattesab is a nice man.
His 3rd wife is a nice lady too. Me too.

Gopanna you knew that
whoever marries Kamala

is destined to go to prison.

Yet you dared to marry' her.
You don't deserve this.

What has he done to
deserve this punishment?

He dared many hardships
to buiId Rama TempIe.

ls that a wrong deed?
Your God won't forgive you forthis.

Temple of such a smaIl size
it costed 6,00,000 coins

l'll make him confess how much
he kept for himseIf.

Come onN speak. How much did
you keep foryourself?

Rama, the best man
of Ekshwaku race....

please talk at least now.

Who else can save me
other than you?

l have built a beautiful
enclosure for the temple.

lt costed me 10,000 gold coins.

l got a brooch made for Lakshman
which costed another 10N000

For Mother Sita, l got a brooch
made worth 10N000 coins and...

For you, a charming crest.

Who do you think has sent this money?
Your fatherN king Dasarath?

or your father-in-law king Janaka

Whose grandfather's property
do you think it isN to...

... enjoy this grandeur?

Her husband is in jail and she is
enjoying 3 meals a day and sleep!

They claim they are devotees.

She crosses river Godavari
to offer prayers daily.

Who knows what she does?
She crosses river Godavari
to offer prayers daily.

Who knows what she does?

Shut up. How cruel you can be?

You add to others suffering?

l'll peel offyour skin
if I get angry.

She onIy screamed at you.
But you know what l do. Get inside.

You look better behind bars
than in the government office.

Shut up.
- OhN Ex-Revenue officer's wife!

l beg ofyou to let me
meet my husband once.

To see the man who made the mistake
of buiIding the temple? Go see.

Husband...

You may leave now.

Husband...

This is unfair. You know
him well. Get him released.

We have 2 kings. One is TanishaN
who rules the kingdom.

The other is this devotee,
who can order Lord Krishna.

We are worthless in front of them.

l cannot take it anymore.

l'Il go to the king and
queen to beg foryour life.

Mother SitaN
tell him to save me.

O Gem of a woman,
tell him to save me.

Daughter of King Janak,
tell him to save me.

Lord of Bhadragiri, who is
praised by Goddess Parvati...

... when wakes up from sleep,
please tell him to save me

O Mther Sita...

Sita, there were no tears when you
were asked to enterthe fire in Lanka.

NorN when you were sent offto the
jungIe when you were pregnant.

Then why are there tears
in your eyes now?

Everyone says you protect
those who seek protection.

Then why are you taking
so long to save Ramadasu.

Time has come to save him.
We wilI do that.

O Allah you are gracious.

Who are you? - My name is Ramoji.
- l'm Lakshmoji.

How did you come in?

You uttered AlIah (God)
Here we are.

What!! Who are you?

We are servants of Ramadasu
whom you have imprisoned.

A man who swaIlowed government
money has servants too! Great!

He has not swallowed it but
has built a temple with it.

Better watch yourtongue.
We are 1 to 2.

Lakshmoji, l told you
to control anger.

He is...
- Enough. Tell me why are you here?

We came to release him.

Release him! How!
WiIl you pay 6,00N000 coins?

We will throw it at you.
-You...

There are 6,00,000 coins.
Count them and issue us a receipt.

Wife... Look there!
- O God!

Hundreds ofguards are on duty.
Closed doors are intact.

I wonder how they
entered and gone out!

l cannot say it's
a dream because

here are the bags of
money they gave.

These are not just gold coins
but are Rama madas (ancient medals)

100 times more valuable
than our coins.

Yes. These were the currency
used during Sri Rama's rule.

God, l don't know
whetherto believe it or not!!

Hey, Ram, my God...

One cannot understand
the acts of Sriram easily.

They came dazzling in
the midnight.

Who do you think that Ramoji and
Lakshmoji who gave you the gold?

They, in fact, are Rama
and Lakshman of lla dynasty.

They appeared to us!!
We are so fortunate!!

ln deedN you are.
But sinners are some others.

ltching...scratch me
scratch me...

What is happening?

They defamed a great devotee
because of arrogance and authority.

NowN they are paying for it.

Pray to Ram and you
will be alright.

Hail Sri Ram

ltching is gone.

My burning feeling is gone too.

Our Ramdasu is going to be
released soon.

Yes. But...
- But... what?

Actual story is going to
begin from here.

But we won't be here to witness it.

We have to go to the place
where we are supposed to be.

RamadasjiN we have committed
a mistake by troubIing

a great devotee Iike you.

Our eyes are opened by the
appearance of Rama.

please forgive us and accept
these giftsN lands and..

Let us carry you personally,
in this palanquin to Bhadrachalam.

Let us recompense
forthe sins we committed

You are not sinners. You are
blessed ones as you could see Rama.

l'm the sinner.
That's why l couIdn't see him.

l don't want your services,
gifts and lands. l'm sorry.

He is begging you to accept them.
Don't refuse, dear.

The God appeared to him and proved
they both are of equal status.

l'm onIy his devotee.
Aworthless man.

We are there foryou.
Please obey us.

Stay in our house at least
tiIl the wounds heal. Come.

You can see only my
physicaI injuries.

My heart is broken for not
being able to see Rama.

How wilI it heal?
My heart is broken for not
being able to see Rama.

How wilI it heal?

They heal only with my death.

Husband...

Mother Sita chose to bury herself
when separated from Rama.

That will be my fate too
If l cannot see Rama.

l must know today itself whether
Rama blesses me with his appearance.

Husband...

O son of king Dasarat,
O ocean of kindness...

ls believing in youN
building your temple,...

... praying to you all the time,...

or writing your name a crore times,
are my crimes?

Why are you not kind to me?
Why have you not appeared to me?

KamalaN look at Shabari.

She first tastes fruits
then offers them to Rama.

Look here at Guhudu

My Rama is hugging him.

ls Guhudu your relative
to hug him?

Is Shabari your sister to eat
the fruits she tastes first?

Have I asked you for
your kingdom in my name?

l only begged to see you.

But you won't come.
Why don't you be kind to me?

KamalaN he blessed aIl the
squirrels just for dropping sand

But l built a temple.
Why is he neglecting me?

O son of Raghuvansh,
who eliminated the demonsN please be kind

Why don't to appear to me?
Come fast.

Husband, what are you doing!

Rama is not coming to me
no matter how much l beg.

SoN l'lI go to him instead.

Now l understood where he is.

Yes, Look there.

During Rama's coronation,
Sita gave Hanuman a pearls necklace.

He bit in to them to see if Rama
is in them.

He threw it away when he
didn't find Rama in them.

Then what happened?

Sita got angry'. Asked him to
prove if Rama is in his heart.

Hanuman tore open his heart
and showed her Rama in it.

lsn't it?
-Yes.

What does it mean?
lt means Lord Rama resides...

... in the heart of his
true devotees.

That means...
My Lord is .. in my heart!

Yes. He himseIf named you Ramdas.

Where else can he be otherthan
in his devotees hearts?

l'll check if Rama is in my heart.

Husband... No...

Let me go... Let me cut open
my heart to see if he is there.

LordN son of Kousalya,
O gracious God.

Have you come along with
the Mther of Universe to see me!!

He has come here on the day you decided
to build the temple to witness it.

ReaIly, O My Lord...

Yes, I'm yours.
You built a temple for me.

Even Hanuman praised you for
your unmatched devotion.

Look there.

For eternity, countless number
of devoteesN sages

... to attain salvation and to
get to heaven.

l'll send you both there alive.

What is salvationN O Lord?

Everlasting joy.

What is there?
- Nothing but pure joy.

You mean, worship you, pray and
singing your praises...

.. reading your holy story etc.

No, no such things exist there.

There is no need

Happiness means, chanting your name.

Happiness is serving you.

And writing your name

Without all theseN how can that

Forgive me. l don't want it.

Let our souIs remain
in Bhadrachalam.

Let us witness the devotees
who come to see you.

We preferthis than salvation.

You are the first peopIe in the histroy of
devotees who turned down salvation.

You are great.
