[citation needed] Once upon a time, at Gandikota kingdom, its prince Jayanth spent his life frolicking over the out-turn of his spiteful cousin Pratapa Simha to clutch the kingship.
Exploiting it, Pratap ploys by molding the prince into a lousy shape, a defamatory bedevil on the populace.
So, he has been professed as a rebel and at hand seized when Raja absconds with his beloved Radha but detached midway.
Hereupon, Raja makes total sense to Jayanth of upheaval when he pledges after soul-searching with tears to typify for the common good when Mahamantri arrives therein.
Meanwhile, Pratap feels something fishy as per Raja's actions & attitude, finds the whereabouts of Jayanth, and snatches him at a mysterious place.
