Read the complete plot breakdown of Radha (2017), including all key story events, major twists, and the ending explained in detail. Discover what really happened—and what it all means.

Radha Krishna grows up idolizing Lord Krishna, soaking up tales of dharma and fearless protection. He believes that the best way to help people is to become a police officer, following Krishna’s example.

After finishing his studies, he helps the police crack a gang and earns a police post with special permission. He completes his training in Hyderabad and is posted to a small village in the Warangal district, known for a 0% crime rate. At first, the quiet assignment leaves him craving more action, until he meets Radha, a woman in the old city, and he sets out to win her heart.

In the political arena, the Home Minister, Ashish Vidhyarthi, aims to become Chief Minister, while the current Chief Minister, Kota Srinivasa Rao, keeps a wary eye on party dynamics. The party observer declares MLA Sujatha as the candidate for Chief Minister. Soon, bomb blasts strike during Sujatha’s campaign, and Radha Krishna loses colleagues and vows to uncover who is behind the attack.

As Radha Krishna’s actions grow unpredictable, Sujatha’s henchmen reveal that he is aware of Sujatha’s schemes. After a blend of tense confrontations and lighthearted moments, Radha Krishna exposes Sujatha’s true nature in a public setting. The ensuing stampede leads to Sujatha’s death, and the film closes with Radha Krishna delivering a message that the police protect society much like the god he admires. The story ends with Radha Krishna being reassigned to another post.
