Varsham (2004 film)

Venkat, an unemployed youngster, meets Sailaja, a middle-class beauty, on a train journey, and they are immediately attracted to each other after dancing in a rain shower. At the same time, Sailaja catches the eye of Bhadranna, a dangerous, ruthless politician who also fell in love with her. Venkat keeps bumping into Sailaja every time it rains, and they fall in love. Ranga Rao, Sailaja's father, is a typical black sheep with many bad habits. Bhadranna approaches him with the marriage proposal, and Ranga Rao jumps on that and agrees. Later, a film producer Seenayya approaches Ranga Rao with an offer for Sailaja to act in a movie. Ranga Rao thinks that acting in films would be more lucrative than marrying her off to Bhadranna. He first successfully creates clashes between lovers, convinces Sailaja to act in a movie, and leaves with her to the city. Venkat also leaves for Vizag to his uncle's place. In Vizag, Sailaja becomes a leading lady in the movies, and Venkat works with his uncle in a quarry as a demolition expert. Months later, Bhadranna is cheated of some money by Ranga Rao, and he finds out where Sailaja now lives, kidnaps her, and tries to change her mind about marrying him. Seenayya gets tensed as the shooting was paused, and Ranga Rao advises him to approach Venkat, as he believes that Venkat still loves Sailaja. Venkat agrees and fights with Bhadranna for Sailaja. Gradually, Sailaja learns that she misunderstood Venkat and apologizes. They reconcile happily, and both start loving again. That night, Bhadranna kills his brother Kaasi for not bringing Sailaja. Bhadranna is coming back from Hyderabad to destroy Venkat and marry Sailaja. During the festival, Bhadranna stabs Venkat but is stopped by his uncle Sivayya. After the fight, Venkat defeats Bhadranna and embraces Sailaja and Venkat's friends. Suddenly, Bhadranna regains consciousness but dies when a statue covered in fire collapses on him. The movie ends with Venkat and Sailaja reuniting.
