A brutally attacked man([[Ravi Teja]]) was left for dead in the mountain ranges of Ladakh and is found frozen by an expedition team. He is taken to the Re-Live lab where doctor Shishir([[Shishir Sharma]]) introduces a technology that can revive dead people, to doctor Parineeti([[Tanya Hope]]) and her colleague ([[Vennela Kishore]]). Following the experiment, the subject wakes up but with no memory of his past. On the other hand, a family is being dumped out by their landlord request for a deferment to pay the rent on time, which they believe will be paid by Vasu([[Ravi Teja]]). His girlfriend Nabha([[Nabha Natesh]]) explains to a loan officer that Vasu handled multiple professions from day to night during which she fell for him. While searching for his stepbrother Kaushik who snatched the family's money, Raj found him but never returned.

However, Parineeti is adamant on making the man revive his memories, and retrieves a commodity found with his corpse, giving it to Vennela for servicing.


In an attempt to gain attention of those who remember him, Vasu thrashes a minister and the video goes viral following his arrest. An aged gangster named Burma Sethu is surprised to find him alive and sends his men to pick him from the police station. The henchmen take away Vasu, his brother and the doctors. While trying to dial the police number, Vennela unintentionally takes out Vasu's package given by Parineeti, and has to throw it outside to escape questioning by Shishir. Vasu picks up the package to find a music player and headphones. Listening to the music, his memories are revived and he fights off the henchmen, revealing himself to be Disco Raj, before Shishir explains Raj's actual age is 70 and he was frozen for 35 years. Raj takes Vennela along with him on a quest to rediscover his identity. In the hospital, an injured Shishir explains to Sethu about Raj's revival. Raj visits the Madras Bar founded by him, where a friend explains how Raj used to be a notorious, music-loving gangster at loggerheads with Sethu, a rival gangster whose refusal to collaborate sparked a gang war. Both parties killed each other's members, but Raj succeeded in getting Sethu arrested for life. Raj also fell for a deaf and mute girl named Helen who initially declined but reciprocated upon finding Raj to be the only one who cares for her. When she got pregnant before marriage, Raj married her, faked his own death and left behind his gang. However, Sethu was freed from prison and vengefully killed Raj's gang members. Raj and Helen were also attacked in Ladakh, but Raj managed to send Helen away in a truck before himself getting killed.

Plot

A brutally attacked man(Ravi Teja) was left for dead in the mountain ranges of Ladakh and is found frozen by an expedition team. He is taken to the Re-Live lab where doctor Shishir(Shishir Sharma) introduces a technology that can revive dead people, to doctor Parineeti(Tanya Hope) and her colleague (Vennela Kishore). Following the experiment, the subject wakes up but with no memory of his past. On the other hand, a family is being dumped out by their landlord request for a deferment to pay the rent on time, which they believe will be paid by Vasu(Ravi Teja). His girlfriend Nabha(Nabha Natesh) explains to a loan officer that Vasu handled multiple professions from day to night during which she fell for him. While searching for his stepbrother Kaushik who snatched the family's money, Raj found him but never returned. She also reveals that Vasu's family members are actually orphans who came to live together. Back to the live, Parineeti and Vennela are told by Shishir to not make the subject think as it can interfere with the experiment. However, the man escapes from the lab using Parineeti's card but is recaptured after he faints due to being exposed to heavy lighting. Parineeti then explains he was killed by someone and revived by the doctors. However, Parineeti is adamant on making the man revive his memories, and retrieves a commodity found with his corpse, giving it to Vennela for servicing.
