He goes on ego trips and challenges a maniacal character in a potentially mercurial cockfight. In a snap, our hero turns into a pleasure-seeking beast who flirts with the young girls in his village. Raju aka Bangaram (Raj Tarun) undergoes a transformation after his dying elder asks him to make memories in life instead of hankering after money-making.
