Guntur Kaaram is set against the background of Guntur in 1998. The story initially unfolds with two notorious hooligans, Marx and Lenin, incinerating Satyam’s chilli factory. This event sets off a chain of dramatic events.
In a hit of rage, Satyam’s brother-in-law murders Lenin. As a result, Satyam takes the fall for Lenin’s murder. This selfless act lands Satyam in jail for 12 years. This event dramatically alters the lives of his son, Ramana, who suffers partial vision loss, and his wife, Vasundhara.
What happened in Mahesh Babu’s latest Telugu movie?
Twenty-five years later, the plot thickens. Vasundhara, now a political figure, finds herself in a crisis with her father, Venkata Swamy. Swamy attempts to sever her ties with Ramana. He devises a plan for Ramana to sign a document renouncing their relationship. However, Ramana’s strong moral compass demands a final meeting with his mother. This leads to a bucket of deceit, including a fabricated FIR against Ramana, orchestrated by Venkata Swamy.
As the narrative progresses, the emotional turmoil intensifies. Vasundhara, upon reuniting with Ramana, confronts him with a slap. This slap further pushes him to sign the separation document. In another twist, political adversary Kata Madhu exposes Ramana’s true lineage, complicating the already tense political landscape. The story takes a deeper dive into the past, revealing that post-accident, Vasundhara had fiercely advocated for Ramana’s eye treatment, creating a rift within the family.
Guntur Kaaram ending: Why did Venkata Swamy orchestrate the 1998 factory attack?
The climax of Guntur Kaaram unravels a web of conspiracy and deceit. Narayana, Vasundhara’s second husband, was also revealed to be behind an assassination plot against Ramana, under instructions from Venkata Swamy. The plot reaches a boiling point when Venkata Swamy’s past actions come to light. He orchestrated the factory attack to break up Vasundhara’s marriage to Satyam, a man from a different caste, which had adversely affected his political career.
In the film’s final moments, Ramana’s resolve to kill Hari Das, manipulated by Venkata Swamy, is thwarted by the revelation of Venkata Swamy’s manipulative schemes. Narayana’s confession that Gopal Reddy is not Vasundhara’s biological son but was adopted to protect Ramana adds another layer of complexity to the story.
The film culminates with Ramana’s confrontation with Venkata Swamy, fueled by rage but halted by Vasundhara’s intervention, leading to an emotional and reconciliatory family reunion in Guntur.
Guntur Kaaram ends on a note of reconciliation and rekindled familial bonds, showcasing the enduring power of love and kinship over societal and political machinations. The film’s intricate storytelling, enriched with additional layers of political intrigue, personal sacrifice, and the quest for truth, combined with the cast’s powerful performances, etches it is a remarkable and unforgettable saga in the annals of Indian cinema.
