Agni Poolu - Part 5: Viren realizing his love and saving Rajyalakshmi from bullets


This story based on Yaddanapudi Sulochana Rani novel is full of rich ideals and human values. Her every story consists some ideal heroes or heroines who are able to face any kind situations with boldness and solve them with their ideal values and relationships. Govind master, Parvati, Prithvi, Krishnamurthy, Rajyalakshmi and Neelaveni are some of those characters.Even some characters like Viren's grandfather look to be very essential in her stories to console people and give them strength to fight in their life.

Swamidass father Veeraswamy reads the news of Parvati getting bullet in her stomach and about her appearance in court to provide witness in the case of Prithvi. He immediately rushes to Hyderabad and enters the house of Swamidass very angrily. But Swamidass was staying at guest house as he got angry with Parvati. Viren and Parvati get tense at Veeraswamy's ire and inform Swamidass immediately. He immediately runs to his house and while his father goes on scolding him continuously for all his  cruel acts leading to the bullet hitting Parvati and the court case on Prithvi, he stands dumbstruck without opening his mouth. Thereafter, Veeraswamy asks his daughter-in-law Parvati to come with him to Suravaram for some days to spend peacefully. Viren also decides to accompany his mother as he gets attracted by his grand-father's personality and to be as guard to his mother. Swamidass gets irritated but could do nothing.

At Suravaram, Parvati and her father-in-law begin talking about Prithvi's greatness in submitting apology before court to close the case and save Parvati from being harassed and defamed in cross-examinations by lawyers. They admire his ideals and respect for human relationships. Viren listens to them and gets much disturbed and thinks of meeting him and expressing thanks on behalf of himself and his mother. So he sets out early morning saying he is returning back to Hyderabad. He comes to know that Prithvi is in court and goes to meet him. By the time he reaches court, Prithvi was about to move and seeing Viren coming nearer to him asks him the purpose of his visit. Viren tells that he came to express thanks on behalf of his mother. Prithvi tells him that he had done so only for the sake of his mother and it does not mean that he can forgive him or his father. Viren gets enraged at his answer and replies bluntly that he is not going to ask for his forgiveness, never in his lifetime and returns back angrily to his home.

Viren's father was waiting for him and after cooling him by telling that Prithvi is nothing in front of him, he asks him  to get ready for some party in the evening. Viren wanted to know details but his father hides everything from him. He comes with a new coat for Viren in the evening and asks him to wear it. Then they proceed for the party even though Viren had no idea where they are going. They reach Gaurishankar house which was grandly decorated with lights and when Viren sees Gauri Shanker and Sharmila waiting for their arrival, he comes to know that he has come to their house. He feels very uneasy and Sharmila's father announces the engagement of Sharmila with Viren in front of the guests there. Viren gets shocked and looks at his father in anguish. But Swamidass does not care for him and forces him to put the ring on Sharmila's finger after she put her ring on his finger. Viren stands still. But his father blackmails him that if he does not do as per his instructions, he will kill himself by making suicide. So Viren had to wear the ring to Sharmila. All people clap hands and begin wishing Gauri Shankar, Sharmila and Swamidass. In the meantime, Viren slips out from there and returns to Suravaram in a very disturbed and agitated mood.

Parvati and Veeraswamy get tense on seeing him and his gloomy disturbed face. After much persuasion, Viren tells his grand father everything that took place and weeps telling that he did not like that girl at all. Parvati also weeps hearing all this. Veeraswamy immediately rings to his son Swamidass and asks him to come to Suravaram immediately. Swamidass arrives there fearing something must have happened. When Veeraswamy demands explanation from him for hurting Viren's feelings, Swamidass replies that he is doing all this only for Viren's better future. He tells that Viren will become CM if he marries that girl. But his father tells him that it is his selfishness and not for Viren's future. He asks him to understand his son's feelings and act accordingly.

After some time, Viren goes to his father sitting in the front side of the house and requests him to remove the burden from his heart and free him from that bondage of ring. He further asks his father not to tell again that he will die if he does not obey him as he needs him very badly and can not lose him at any cost. Then he removes the ring from his finger and puts it in his father's hand and returns to his room. Swamidass sits there for many hours and then decides to return the ring to Gauri Shanker and so he goes inside to inform his wife and Viren but was unable to tell them anything. He informs his father that he is going back to Hyderabad and returns.

Neelu's mother feels agitated at Neelu's admiration of Prithvi and his ideals and her determination to wait till her mother agrees for their marriage. So she thinks of talking with Prithvi and test him. She asks for his number from her husband Krishnamurthy who was in office at that time. After taking the number, she rings to Prithvi and asks him to meet her as soon as he is free. Prithvi tells that he will be coming immediately and reaches her home. Then Parvati puts forth all her fears if Neelu is married to him saying that Neelu will not be safe, she will have to wait for him throughout nights while he spends his time in working for his ideals and that she may have to sacrifice even her smallest of small desires because of him. Prithvi realises her agony and promises her that he will give first preference for Neelu's happiness in his life as he loves her so much and will give all the pleasures that one should give to his wife and family throughout his life. He will never put her in troubles as he will be guarding her throughout his life. Neelu's mother Satya gets very happy at his assurances and promises and accepts him as her son-in-law and invites him for dinner in the evening.

When Neelu and Krishnamurthy return from their offices in the evening, they get surprised at her joyful mood. They ask for the secret behind her happiness but she diverts them by telling that she had learnt some new recipes from a TV programme and has prepared many dishes for the dinner. Immediately they get ready for the dinner, but she makes them wait for some time. They wait with suspense and when they see Prithvi arriving there and telling them that she had invited him to the dinner, they feel very happy and Neelu expresses her love towards her mother by kissing her on cheeks. All of them enjoy the dinner, while Satyavati takes special care of Prithvi by serving him all the dishes personally with love.

Gaurishankar was waiting for Swamidass and when he does not come to his house, he rings to him. Swamidass gathers his disturbed mind and reaches Gaurishankar house with strong determination to return the ring and provide relief to his son. So he takes the ring from his pocket and puts it Gaurishankar hand saying that his son do not like his daughter Sharmila. Gaurishankar gets shocked and then very angry over him. He asks for Viren's whereabouts to talk directly but Swamidass did not tell him. Gaurishankar becomes very much enraged but somehow controls himself and gives one week time to Swamidass to compel his son agree to the marriage or otherwise get prepared for death. Thereafter, he hands over the ring to Swamidass and tells that he and Shammi are going on foreign tour for whole one week to divert her attention from Viren for the time being, warning that Viren should be prepared to marry her by their return.

Prithvi wanted to know the reasons for Govind master's life long jail sentence and the reason behind Krishnamurthy's non-cooperation with him. Neelu also is suspicious of her father and joins hands with Prithvi in his search. They search old news papers and on website also for details having any connection with Govindji and his college days. But there is no trace of any hint at his jail sentence. Prithvi decides to go personally to Suravaram and enquire from his college, his village people and one security guard who was the SI at that time and who handed over Prithvi as a small child to Govindji for bringing him up.

Meanwhile, Rajyalakshmi(shortly called as Raju) and her mother who were staying at a village named Siruguppa in Karnataka, get involved in social service to the poor villagers. It all began with one daughter-in-law of the servant looking after them. One day she developed pains being pregnant and was unable to bear the pain. Hearing her cries, Raju and her mother run to her and find the situation very serious. Immediately they take her to the hospital along with girl's father-in-law. When they arrive there there was no Doctor as it was midnight. The nurse calls the Doctor but the Doctor shouts at her for disturbing her sleep and cuts the phone. Then Raju gets angry and warns the doctor to attend the case immediately or face consequences. So she attends the case and the daughter-in-law's life gets saved and she delivers a girl child.

All villagers get happy at Raju's character of helping others unselfishly and her concern for them. Another day, some people get fainted at a liquor shop consuming adulterated alcohol. Their wives run to them weeping and crying loudly. Again Raju runs to help them and her mother also follows them. All of the victims get admitted into the hospital. When the stock of saline bottles gets exhausted Raju scolds the staff and offers her money to immediately purchase from nearest shop. The doctor tells her that she may not get the money back. Raju does not care for the money and asks the doctor to save their lives. After they recover from dangerous condition, Raju on overhearing the Doctor's conversation comes to know that neither police nor village head came to visit them. So she decides to meet them and make complaint of the liquor seller.

The village head was a lady but all dealings are done by her husband who is stone hearted. He tells Raju and her accompanies that it is not his duty to see all these things. It is the fault of government and the consumers of the alcohol. Raju tried to argue saying it is his duty to safeguard his villagers as a village head. But he ridicules her and asks to go back. Raju then goes to give written complaint at the police station. But the village head already alerted the SI and the liquor shop owner to be careful. So the SI also refuses to register the complaint and tears off the paper telling her that he will settle the matter by offering some money to the victims. Raju gets angry at his criminal mentality and behaviour.

So she wanted to meet the collector and complain to him. Some women of the victims also get ready to go along with her. But the village head threatens their husbands regarding the consequences if they do not stop their women. So they come and drag the women to their houses leaving Raju and his mother alone. Raju gets much agitated at their rude behaviour and fear. She feels much disappointed and helpless in her urge to solve their problems. Just then, their servant Chandraiah's daughter-in-law comes to join her whose name was Chinnamma. She was twice victim of the plight of the village- once during her delivery and the second time when her husband consumed the adulterated alcohol. So she stood boldly to accompany with Raju and Chinnamma husband also followed her.

All of them reach the collector office in a sumo and there, they find the goons of the village head and liquor shop owner already watching them. They even approached Raju and threatened her to return back. But Raju was bold and determined. She did not fear their warnings even though her mother was very afraid. They wait for collector's arrival and when the PA asks for written petition, Raju tells him that she will narrate the case in person. But the collector as routine, goes through the petitions put forth before him and gets back into his vehicle thinking work is over. The PA did not tell him about Raju. So Raju stops the collector saying that she had come with an urgent case. Then the collector asks her to come to his chamber and he himself goes to his seat to hear her case. When he comes to know of the tyrannies of the village head, SI and liquor shop owner, he immediately asks his PA to fix visit for that Siruguppa village next morning itself.

So, the collector reaches the village of Siruguppa next day and the hospital Doctor narrates the graveness of the situation which could have resulted in deaths of tens of people if Raju had not been there. On coming to know of all the happenings and problems of the villagers, the collector orders SI to take the liquor shop owner into custody and warned the village head and her husband to vacate the posts if they can not take care of their people. He suggested that Raju is best suited for the post of village head as she cares for them so much. Then he returns thanking Raju and her mother for their selfless service. Media men cover this incident and their interview with her in the news telecasts.

When Prithvi reaches Suravaram and goes to the college for inquiring details about the security guard, the principal was not there. So he had to stay for the night in Suravaram. As he was having plenty of spare time, Prithvi started sight seeing and while doing so, finds Viren sitting at the banks of a canal in gloomy mood. Immediately he goes to him and wishes him. Then he asks for his mother's health. On knowing that his mother is also there, Prithvi requests him to allow him to visit his mother to wish her personally. Viren takes him to his mother. Prithvi feels very glad. Parvati and her father-in-law also get much pleased to see him. They invite him for dinner. When they were talking about his good and humble character and his great ideal values of life, Viren gets grief at heart for all his wrongdoings and ill thoughts and feels much disturbed. Prithvi notices some change in his behaviour as Viren appears to be cool in his reactions.

After Prithvi's return, Viren's mother notices Viren's gloomy mood and the pain in his heart and informs her father-in-law about his agitated condition requesting him to console him. Then he goes to Viren and knowing about his feelings advises him to first decide what he wants in his heart and act accordingly. He further tells him that lingering and wasting time in sadness does not solve problems. Such persons are only waste fellows. A true person should be determined in his feelings and actions and achieve whatever he wants by fighting with the circumstances and should not sit weeping for his past. Getting inspired by his grandfather's words, Viren sets out from the house in that night itself, to know what is his requirement and try to achieve it without wasting time.


Prithvi gets the address and phone number of the SI-cum-security services head, Ramabrahmam from the Suravaram College Principal and returns to Hyderabad. He goes to his home and asks Ramabrahmam about history of Govindji leading to his life imprisonment. But the guard recognises Prithvi and his intentions and tells him that he knows no person like that. So Prithvi returns back to Hyderabad with no information of Govindji.

Prithvi thinks a lot to find some solution to the problem as he is determined to get the release of Govindji from the jail. Krishnamurthy does not cooperate, Govindji also don't want to come out of the jail. So Prithvi keeps his plans secret and requests Neelu also to not to reveal his plans to anybody. He meets the ACP whom he had saved by tendering apology in court. The ACP promises to help him by procuring the old records of Govindji from the jail. But he has to depend for the same on the jailor and even after much efforts, he was unable to get any information.

Viren reaches Hyderabad and waits at Gemini TV studio to meet Neelu for Raju's address. When Neelu arrives to the office, he stops her and asks for the phone number and/or address of Rajyalakshmi. Neelu  reacts bluntly  and questions his intention in seeking the whereabouts of Raju. Viren does not bear her bluntness and he also reacts in the same manner and leaves the place. But he again goes to her house when her mother also is present and demands for the phone number or address of Raju. But Neelaveni was determined not to give him the details as she was afraid of his nature and intentions. Viren gets very angry and challenges that he will get Raju's whereabouts at any cost and show to Neelu his determination.

Neelu's mother feels very scared of Viren and immediately calls to Parvati and informs her about the wild behaviour of her son. Parvati feels very happy to know that Viren is searching for Rajyalakshmi and prays to God to bring them together. She informs Neelu's mother that he has changed a lot and assures her to be cool as Viren will never do harm to anybody in his present circumstances as he has become good natured now.

Meanwhile Swamidass manages to know about the whereabouts of Rajyalakshmi through his informers and appoints one Mallesh as her bodyguard. He orders Mallesh to be very careful and protect Raju and her mother at any cost and not to let even the air touch them without his knowledge. Through Mallesh, he comes to know that the liquor shop owner Parmesh is trying to attack Raju through his goons. Mallesh further informs Swamidass that his son Viren also is searching for Raju through his other informers. Swamidass tells Mallesh not to tell anybody about anything and do his duty quietly.

Swamidass arranges for the security of Viren also as he is afraid of Gaurishankar attacking his son at any time. Viren stays at guest house as he is not comfortable with his father. So Swamidass goes to him and tells him about the security arrangement and requests him to kindly accept for the security.

Then Swamidass goes to Siriguppa village in Karnataka to request Rajyalakshmi and her mother to accept Viren into their life again as he has changed a lot and can not live without Raju. But they do not trust his words and reject his request. He once again tells them to rethink over his request and returns back to Hyderabad by midnight. On way, he talks to the high command in Delhi and requests for security of Rajyalakshmi and her mother and to take action over the village president and liquor shop owner.

Swamidass goes to Viren's room in the guest house in the midnight itself  and finds him sleeping. He sits by his side for some time with affection and leaves a paper containing the address of Rajyalakshmi beneath Viren's mobile so that he can see it when he wakes up.

In the morning, when Viren extends his hand towards his mobile to see the time on waking up, his fingers touch the paper slip and immediately he sits up and views it and feels very glad to find the address of Raju in it. He thinks his goon had left it there and tells his attendant to give a bundle of notes to the goon when he comes there and leaves immediately to see Raju.

Viren travels by car all along and reaches Siriguppa in Bellary district of Karnataka state.

Meanwhile, seeing tight security around their house, Raju and her mother think that the collector had arranged for their security. So Raju tells her mother that she will go to Bellary and thank him. Her mother gets afraid to let her go so long distance. But Raju assures her to be careful and their servant Chandraiah will also accompany her. Just then, village president sends his car at her service and she gets into it to drive out her mother's fears. Two constables also get into it for her security along with Chandraiah to take her safely to Collector's office.

Raju had to wait for some time as the collector was in meeting. On meeting him, the collector enquires about the health of Raju and her mother and about the villagers. Then, Raju thanks him for the police protection and care taken by him. The collector tells that he had not provided any security and enquires from the SI of the village. Then it is revealed that protection is from higher orders.

So, Raju returns from there and on way, goes to the police station to ask the SI. The SI tells that he does not know any details as he could not question the higher authorities to tell him the reasons for providing protection. Then Raju returns the constables to him and proceeds back with Chandraiah in the vehicle.

Meanwhile, Viren goes to the house of Raju and meets her mother there. She gets very much shocked and afraid of him and tells him to return back immediately. Viren tells her that he should meet Raju and talk with her. He tells that he will wait till her return in the outside.

Raju thinks of returning the car also and tells the driver to go straight to the village president house. The hired goons of liquor shop owner Parmeswar see that Raju has returned constables at the police station. They follow her and see that she returned the car also to the president. They find it to be the correct time to attack her as she is without vehicle and protection and only the old man is accompanying her. They do not see the person following Raju from behind on a scooter. So they get prepared for attacking her and take an acid bottle with its lid removed.

The attackers move from their hiding and follow Raju on a motorcycle, with the back sitting person holding the acid bottle ready to pour on Raju. Mallesh who was coming from behind on scooter sees the acid bottle and shouts loudly warning Raju to run from the attackers. Then Raju witnesses the attackers coming from behind and begins running and crying loudly. Viren, who was waiting for Raju, hears the shouts and finds that Raju is in danger. He comes running to her and while the attacker was hitting the bottle at Raju, he holds her and pushes her aside. The bottle falls on Viren's back and the acid spills over his back and shoulder and he shouts wildly with the burns and pain while Raju watches him speechless.

She gets terribly shocked at his sudden appearance, his pushing her aside and taking the bottle of acid upon his back to save her. All this happened in a fraction of the second and she stood still and motionless watching his extending of hand towards her in utter pain and with a satisfaction of saving her and then falling unconscious unable to bear the pain. Meanwhile, Mallesh and Viren's other bodyguards take him immediately to the village Government Hospital and Raju becomes dumb and unresponsive and loses senses. Her mother and others take her inside. But she got so serious a shock that she is unable to hear or respond to anybody and goes into coma.
