He soon realizes that 400 years ago, he was Kala Bhairava, a legendary warrior in the kingdom of Udaigarh. He was in love with Princess Mithravinda but was betrayed by Ranadev Billa. In the present day, Harsha must protect Indu from the reincarnated villain and fulfill their unfinished love story while battling ancient rivalries across centuries.
