Once upon a time, a king, Ananda Bhupathi, loved and secretly knitted Yashodhara. Later, he neglects her, and she gives birth to a baby boy. Being conscious of it, her father, Govardhan Maharshi, curses her to convert into a stone. Plus, the child is going to oppress his parents. King Dhanunjaya Bhupathi spots and rears him as Simhananda. Ananda Bhupathi, spouses of King Mahendra Varma's sister, without approval, are blessed with the child Vijay. Being unbeknownst, the sibling enlightened at the same Gurukul. Years rolled by, and two experts in all trades. Vijay is altruistic, whereas Simhananda is malignant and begrudges Vijay's supremacy. So, with a vast penance, Simhananda acquires the magical braid of Jatapala, which molds as a wizard. At a point, Simhananda sights & entices Kanchana, the daughter of Mahendra Varma, when Vijay shields, detects her as his cousin, and they crush. Parallelly, Mahendra Varma announces Kanchana's wedlock, and Vijay & Simhananda arrive at Swayamvar. Whereat, Simhananda utilizes his witchcraft. However, Vijay triumphs over him, but Mahendra Varma opposes it, affirming the actuality when Vijay flies with Kanchana. Infuriated, Mahendra Varma mingles Simhananda to recoup his daughter along with Ananda Bhupathi. So, he seizes them, holds Kanchana in a fort, transforms her into a parrot, and locks up Ananda Bhupathi at the hilltop. One day, a monkey steals the braid when Simhananda backs it; Caliban assaults him, and Vijay shields him. Next, combat arises between the two. At that point, Vijay's friend Madana retrieves the braid, but Simhananda snatches it and throws Vijay onto a cliff. Now Simhananda attempts to kill Ananda Bhupathi when his shadow falls on a stone when Yashodhara backs her novel form and claims he is harassing his father, which he denies. At last, Vijay lands when he realizes Simhananda is his brother and warns him to quit their parents. Finally, Vijay, with the aid of Sri Chakra Upasana, extracts evil forces from Simhananda and reforms him into a purified one.
