On the advice of a priest, the king marries a pious woman who matches her devotional prowess against the ghost's seductions and wins.
When he goes to the forest once to hunt animals, he gets attracted to an orphan stick selling lady Mohini (Jayamalini) and lusts after her.
Raja in his next birth goes to the same forest to drink water where Jaganmohini, now a ghost, appears to him and lures him with her beauty.
