Storyline & Synopsis

Magadheera is the landmark fantasy reincarnation action epic directed by S. S. Rajamouli that catapulted Ram Charan into overnight superstardom in only his second movie, co-starring Kajal Aggarwal and Dev Gill.

Harsha (Ram Charan) is a daring motorcycle stuntman in Hyderabad whose accidental touch of a woman's hand triggers flashes of a past life. As he falls in love with Indu (Kajal Aggarwal), he uncovers his heroic past life from 1609 AD in the kingdom of Udaygadh. 400 years ago, he was Kala Bhairava, the peerless warrior commander who loved princess Mithravinda and defended his kingdom against treasonous cousin Ranadev Billa. When reincarnated evil threatens Indu once more, Harsha taps into his ancient martial fury to conquer destiny.
