The film plot follows a fictional story inspired from the life of Bahirji Naik, a secret agent of Chhatrapati Shivaji.

[2] Mohityanchi Manjula is a fictional love story set in Maharashtra during the time of Chhatrapati Shivaji (Chandrakant Mandare), a great warrior known for his bravery.

The main characters are Bahirji Naik (Suryakant Mandhare), a spy who works for Shivaji and a fictional girl named Manjula (Jayshree Gadkar) from the noble Mohite family.

The story begins with an anthem that praises Maharashtra, followed by Chandra Rao More (Jaishankar Danve), who shelters Rangu Vakade (Barchi Bahaddar), a criminal sentenced to death by Shivaji for assaulting a woman.

At the festival of God Bhairoba in Bhairevadi, Kedarji’s men misbehave with women and Manjula bravely fights back by hitting Ganya (Chittaranjan Kolhatkar) with a whip.

Kedarji tries to force Manjula into marrying him by sending kidnappers to her house, but Bahirji, now in disguise as Daulat Jadhav, helps her fight back.
