The film begins in the year 500 B.C when Bimbisara (Kalyan Ram) is the emperor of the Trigartala empire. A vile egomaniac, his violent antics have no limit. However, his ego trip ends when his banished twin brother Devadatta ambushes him and teleports him - through a magical mirror to the present-day world. What happens when this authoritarian king is reincarnated as a suit wearing rich man in a modern-day world? If you haven’t watched it yet, now is the time.
