Rangeli Raja is a 1971

The film begins with the mysterious slaughtering of Rao Bahadur Jaganatha Rao and incriminates his stanch Ramadasu. So, he flees with Jaganatha Rao's wealth to safeguard covering his identity as Hanumantha Rao. Plus, he is seeking Jaganatha Rao's wife, Parvathamma & son, Raja, to retrieve their belongings. Bearing that Ramadasu is a homicide, Parvathamma screens behind her sibling Narasimham. Ramadasu has two daughters, Jaya & Vijaya. Once, Jaya is lifted by a thief, leading to his wife Lakshmi's demise. Years roll by, and Raja is a jovial who sets foot for vengeance, being aware of his father's assassination. Parallelly, a notorious criminal wing whose chieftain is under a veil entrusts Raja's pursuit to his son Kumar. Raja lands in the town and friendships with a vagabond, Chandram, and he aids him in his hunt. Ramadasu is also searching for Jaganatha Rao's family even now. Raja gets acquainted with Vijaya, and they fall in love. Jaya Ramadasu's disappeared kid is a petty thief who endears Chandram.

Ahead, Kumar is behind Raja, but he gamely gives them counterattacks, and Chandram tactically intrudes with them. Meanwhile, as per his vow, Ramadasu opposes Raja & Vijaya's love affair to knit her up with Jaganatha Rao's son. Simultaneously, before leaving the breath, Jaya's foster father proclaims Chandram her birth secret. He discerns her parentage as Ramadasu, currently hiding as Hanumantha Rao, and notifies the Supreme. Unfortunately, Raja is clutched by Kumar when the Supreme mandates to capture Parvathamma, too, which he does. As a flabbergast, the Supreme is unmasked as Narasimham and is the true killer of Jaganatha Rao, which startles Parvatamma & Raja. At present, Narasimham forges Kumar Jaganatha Rao's heir by showing Parvathamma endander to Raja, and they reach Ramadasu to procure the riches. Forthwith, Ramadasu fixes the alliance for Kumar & Vijaya. Surprisingly, Chandram becomes a CBI Officer who frees Raja and gets the venue. At last, Raja ceases the baddies, and Ramadasu also regains Jaya. Finally, the movie ends happily.
