Perspective
Jagan is a tourist guide and an Ayurvedic practitioner in Jodhpur. Radha, a tourist, visits Jodhpur with her friends and subsequently tries to commit suicide at Mehrangarh, but she is stopped by Jagan, who convinces her to enjoy her trip instead. Radha eventually leaves the city without saying goodbye to Jagan. Later, Jagan's mother takes him to Badami to perform a puja, where he meets Radha again.
Jagan attempts to propose to Radha at the bus station, but she is attacked by Veerappa's henchmen. Jagan rescues Radha, who reveals that she is from the royal Ballala family and that her father will not accept the marriage proposal. Jagan consoles her and promises to convince her family. He arrives at their village just in time to thwart attackers sent by Pallava, a rival of Ballala's.
During the festival of Durga Puja, the Ballala family is engaged in a conflict with a rival group and Jagan intervenes again. He confesses that his grandfather is Jayarathnakara and that he comes from the Rathnakara family. The Ballala family then offers an alliance with the Rathnakaras by proposing the marriage of Ballala's brother to Rathnakara's daughter, who rejects the proposal. Dejected and angry, Ballala's brother attacks everyone at the Ratnakara residence in an attempt to kill Rathnakara's daughter, but he is accidentally slain by Jagan's father. In retaliation, Ballala slaughters the Rathnakaras but spares Jagan and his parents and instructs them to leave the city forever.
The feuds between the four families continue, leading first to Radha's captivity, an ensuing gang battle, and ultimately, a truce. Jagan and Radha are finally reunited after many travails, and they receive everyone's approval to marry.
