Plot


The plot of the film is based on the concept of reincarnation and a beautiful love story. Newly married couple Gopi and Radha are on Honeymoon and traveling in a boat on the River Godavari. Gopi cries to the boatman to stop the boat as there were dangerous whirlpools ahead. On reaching the shore, Gopi takes Radha to an old building. The boatman tells them that it belonged to a Zamindar and takes them to the Samadhis, which reportedly belong to that one Gopi and Radha. They, then, find an old lady lighting a Deepam light at the Samadhis. Gopi recognizes that she is none other than Gowri from his earlier birth. Gowri too recognized him as Gopi and breathes her last in his hands. The main story is narrated as a flashback by Gopi to Radha.

Gopi, an orphan lives on the River Godavari and carries passengers by boat. Radha is the daughter of a Zamindar. She goes to college on the other side of the river. Gopi carries her daily, purely likes her, and used to give her a chrysanthemum flower daily. Gowri is a shepherd girl who loves Gopi intensely. Radha's maternal uncle Rajendra lusts after Gowri.

Rajendra's selfish plans result in the marriage of Radha to Ramaraju. As fate otherwise directs, Ramaraju dies and Radha becomes a widow and comes back to the village. Gopi is deeply disturbed by the unfortunate incident and tries to console Radha. Their affection is misunderstood by Gowri and villagers accuse an illegal relationship between them, spread by Rajendra. Knowing this, Gopi leaves the village and Radha follows in search of him. Rajendra intends to follow and kill them, but Gowri bargains with him to save them. Both Radha and Gopi die due to the whirlpools in the river.

After narrating the story, the newly wedded couple makes cremation of Gowri beside the Samadhis of Radha and Gopi.
