Summary: The film begins with Daksha Prajapathi (S. V. Ranga Rao) becoming the king of the Prajapathis, all the gods give him the most effective powers and an oath that no one will cross his words. After that, he is blessed with 2 sons and also adopts 27 girls. Soon after, Adi Parashakti was born as his daughter Sathi (Devika), who is the greatest devotee of Lord Shiva (N. T. Rama Rao). Daksha performs his 27 daughters' marriage with Lord Chandra (Rama Krishna). After the marriage, Chandra spends most of his time with Rohini (Rajasri) and ignores the others when it was brought to Daksha's notice he curses Chandra to die out of T.B. disease. Here Chandra prays to Lord Shiva, then he gives a boon to protect him. Enraged Daksha clashes with Shiva and the war erupts. Lord Vishnu intervenes and makes a compromise by making Chandra into two. Daksha, however, maintains his grudge against Lord Shiva; when he learns his daughter Sathi is in love with Shiva. To prevent, eventually, he seeks alliance for his daughter. But Sathi marries Shiva against her father’s wish, so, Daksha decides to insult Shiva by performing a sacrifice without inviting Shiva. Sathi wants to attend the sacrifice and visits uninvitedly ignoring the advice of her husband where she has to endure many insults. At last, when Daksha started insulting her husband, she could not bear and immolated herself in the sacrificial fire. Hearing it, Lord Shiva makes a ferocious dance called Rudra Thandava and wakes up Veerabhadra from his hair, who destroys sacrifice and decapitates Daksha. At last, on request of Daksha's wife Vairini (Kannamba) Shiva forgives Daksha and brings him back to life giving him a goat's head instead of his own.
