Anyhow, vicious Rajaguru intrigue secures Devadatta, and he quits. En route, he mates with a stranger, Bujjaiah, and they are startled to witness a flying palanquin. Unfortunately, its framer is slaughtered by a demon when the two grab the palanquin and exhibit it to Chitrasena.

Accordingly, he abducts her with the palanquin and backs Kanchipuram. However, Bhuvana Sundari absconds and approaches her parents when sycophantic Rajaguru falsifies her as a lunatic. Parallelly, Chandrasena also proceeds, amid relieving a demon's curse, and is blessed with the boon "Parakaya Pravesha," i.e., leaving one's soul and entering others. At Kanchipuram, a launderer, Tippa, shelters him. Since Chandrasena fails to enter the palace, he knows the trick of Tippa swapping the bodies and bailing out Bhuvana Sundari. At that point, hoodwinker Tippa denies taking his body as he is enthralled by Chandrasena's handsome. Hence, Chandrasena in Tippa backs when Rajagaru discerns it and forges Tippa in Chandrasena as a prince before Chitrasena via Devadatta. Now, Chitrasena apprehends Chandrasena in Tippa unbeknownst of fact and announces the nuptial of Chandrasena in Tippa & Bhuvana Sundari. Then Rajaguru wiles in disguise and poses destructive in Bhuvana Sundari's horoscope. Ergo, Chitrasena edicts to drop her into the river in a box. Fortunately, she is saved by the tribals who put a bear on it.Consequently, the bear strikes Chandrasena, and Tippa slays it when Rajaguru backstabs him when he enters the bear, does Rajaguru to death, threatens Tippa in Chandrasena, and recoups his body. At last, Devadatta snatches Bhuvana Sundari in the flying palanquin, and Chandrasena ceases him. Finally, the movie ends with the marriage of Chandrasena & Bhuvana Sundari.
