Swapna Mantapa
Manjula (Ranjani Raghavan), a high school social studies teacher, arrives in a remote village and becomes intrigued by the ruins of Swapna Mantapa, an ancient structure steeped in legend. While staying at Sidappa's (Sundar Raj) house, she meets Shivakumar (Vijay Raghavendra), an unemployed history graduate. Shivakumar narrates the tale of King Chanderaya, his queens Nagaladevi and Madanike, and daughter Madalase. As Manjula imagines herself as Madanike, the lines between past and present blur. The duo faces opposition from Bheemaraju (Ambarish Sarangi), who plans to sell the site to resort developers, and encounters Rajkumari (Rajini Gowda), a mentally unstable woman. Together, they fight to preserve the monument as a cultural legacy.
