He learns that hisproperty (house) was owned illegally by a Rowdy and he is not willing togive the proprty back to Mukkamala. And hence the Panchayati.As usual, RGR (the Villian) supports the Rowdy and does injustice toMukkamala. Having no enough power to face the Rowdy or the village head, heagain leaves the village.
Hero fights with the Rowdy (staying in Mukkamala’s property) and owns hisproperty and does good to the village people. Village people start callinghim RUSTUM.Hero works for the village welfare and acts promplty for any help needed.RGR sets a trap to kick Hero out of the village.

Even the heroine suspects the hero.In the trial to prove that he is not the reason behind the suicide, helearns that GB is the main reason. RGR fixes up Satyanarayana, Gummadi’sbrother — who just gets released from prison, to kill Chiru.
Meanwhile, GB goes to city and tracks down Mukkamala and why Hero came andfought for Mukkamala’s property.GB learns the whole loop and passes it on to RGR.The loop is — Chiru, is none other than Gummadi’s son.

Ravi Raja Pinnisetty, Skanda Arts, and Chiru joined hands to make an entertaining film, which though was a musical hit, did average business in 1990. This film is the desi version of an Eddie Murphy film. Raja Vikramarka (Chiranjeevi) is the prince of Skanda Dweepam, a small kingdom. He is unable to live his own life, eat his favorite foods, or brush his own teeth. His father (Satyanarayana) arranges his marriage with another kingdom’s princess. She turns out to be nothing more than a synchophant, one without a brain or spine of her own. He leaves the kingdom with his trusted friend, Jockie (Bramhanandam), in order to live his own life. In the modern big city, he finds a friend and works as a mechanic, during which time he saves a girl (Amala) from two attempts at her life. Her uncle (Rao Gopal Rao) hires him as her bodyguard. Rao later reveals to him that he was in fact the assassin trying to kill her for her money. In order to thwart his plot, Raja agrees to handle the murder attempts, while at the same time trying to save her. After being kicked out of the house, her uncle, along with the other villains (Gullapudi Maruthi Rao and Kota) join forces to kill Raja and his parents. Raja saves the day and rules as king of his land. Comedy has always been one of Chiru’s fortes. It has always come to him easily and this time is no exception. Mostly a comedy-filled role, he excelled in it. While trying to plot devlish schemes to end a life at the same trying to save that very life, Chiru portrayed yet another multi-layered, comedic role with elan. This is a very different role from what he had done before and he excelled. Amala paired up well with him and danced very well too. The villainous actors were their usual best at being evil. Radhika, who also starred in the film as a theif who gives up her lifestyle because she loves Raja, was entertaining. Music by Raj-Koti was terrific, especially the songs, “Ellelo,” Gagana Kirana, and “Erraroi.” Choreography was superb, in particular the snake dance was mind-blowing. Ravi Raja did a good job in directing the film. The costumes and sets add richness to the film. It is an entertaining, fun film.

Story: Chiru followed the smashing success of Gang Leader in 1991 with this super hit that was directed by K. Raghavendra Rao and produced by Sri Sai Ram Arts. Chiru plays the dual roles of a Mumbai-based auto driver, Jhonny, and an industrialist, Kalyan, who because he was interfering with the plans of the villains, led by Kota Sreenivas Rao, is first temporarily replaced by Jhonny, and then framed for the murder of Kalyan’s trusted employee and father of his love, Shobana. Jhonny realizes that he ruined the life of a good man and joins forces with Kalyan. They pretend to be each other, in order to save Kalyan. After the villains prove in court that Kalyan was the killer by replacing the rod of the murder weapon with one that has his finger prints on it, Jhonny captures the villains and saves Kalyan. It is Chiranjeevi’s show all the way. He plays two different men with two distinct styles effortlessly. The transition he shows in Kalyan’s character, from a tough, honest man to a dazed, confused, naive, weak individual is brilliant. He also shows the rough, crude Jhonny’s unsuccessful attempt at pretending to be Kalyan very well. Jhonny’s character tries many times to carry on a suave, sofisticated demeaner yet fails because he is quite crass. Chiru portrays this weakness of Jhonny exquisitely. Much of the film is filled with great comedy provided by the Megastar, in particular, the scenes, where he as Jhonny, pretending to be a crazy Kalyan, interacts with the psychiatrist, played by Brahmanandam. Shobana, as Kalyan’s love and lawyer, does her part well. Divya Bharati was limited to a mostly song and dance role and looked nice next to Chiru. K. Raghavendra Rao directed this film well. Music by Bappi Lahari is excellent, especially the songs, “Chiluka kshemamama” and “Love Me My Hero.” The film is a great entertainer for classes and masses.
