Rayudu keeps Gandharva Mahal afloat by renting out parts of the estate to various tenants. The arrangement is essential, but it invites a mix of temperaments who test his quiet authority. He hopes the steady income will secure his family’s future and preserve the palace’s legacy.

Manoj arrives as a sharp-eyed tenant with a can-do attitude. He notices the elderly beggar Amrutha Valli wandering the grounds and quietly aligns with her. Together they hatch a plan that begins with a staged scare to unsettle other tenants and bind Amrutha to their cause.

Amid Manoj’s growing influence, he nudges the tenants to stay put, resisting Rayudu’s calls for vacancy. Jagadhamba clashes with Manoj, signaling deeper personal and power tensions within Gandharva Mahal. The estate becomes a testing ground for shifting loyalties.

Rayudu advances plans to secure Visalakshi’s future through a marriage alliance, even considering Gandharva Mahal itself as a potential dowry. His maneuvering reshapes the balance of power among tenants and kin. He believes these moves will stabilize the household and honor the palace’s legacy.

Manoj’s influence continues to grow as tenants resist vacancy, but tensions rise when Jagadhamba challenges his methods. The corridors of Gandharva Mahal become a stage for subtle betrayals and competing ambitions. The personal and political lines blur as alliances form around the estate.

One night, Manoj strikes Rayudu with a bloodied nose and claims a supernatural presence now roams the palace. He warns Rayudu never to leave, deepening the fear of a ghostly guardian. Rayudu begins to suspect the spirit haunting the palace is Narasimha Rayudu, his forebear.

In a flashback, Narasimha Rayudu is depicted as a revered protector who distributes wealth, giving half to his sister Jagadhamba and a quarter to his ally Seshayya, even gifting Gandharva Mahal itself. His actions set in motion the long-running power struggles over the estate. The past explains why the palace’s legacy remains fiercely contested.

Phanindra Bhoopathi’s ambition drives him to murder Jagadhamba, framing it as suicide, and he makes another attempt to abduct Amrutha inside Gandharva Mahal. Narasimha Rayudu’s fury erupts at the betrayal, complicating the living’s precarious position. Bhupati’s treachery thickens the web of loyalties.

Narasimha Rayudu is slain by Bhupati after deeper schemes unravel and Seshayya dies in the crossfire. Bhupati’s treachery underscores the fragile balance of power within the palace. Before dying, Narasimha Rayudu warns that Gandharva Mahal belongs to him and no one else.

Amrutha sinks into beggary as the palace’s fate remains precarious. Visalakshi’s wedding is being prepared, with Rushi arriving to secure the union. Bujji, her duplicitous maternal uncle, schemes to squat the palace and seize documents that would confirm ownership.

Manoj persuades the wedding party to hold the line and recovers crucial documents that could secure the estate. His action stiffens the living’s defense against Bujji’s maneuvering. The rescue hints at a possible path to resolving the modern crisis.

Bujji summons a wizard after sensing Narasimha Rayudu and Bhupati’s presence. Guided by Narasimha Rayudu’s ancient wisdom, the wizard traps Bhupati’s vengeful soul, buying time for the living to resolve the crisis. The supernatural intervention shifts the balance but only temporarily.

Manoj reveals that he is the grandson of Seshayya, sent by Suguna to aid Rayudu and protect Gandharva Mahal. The disclosure reframes loyalties and explains his alliance with Jagadhamba. It signals a shared mission to safeguard the palace.

Bujji strikes Manoj and destroys the bottle that contains Bhupati’s soul, trusting the wizard’s deception. Bhupati’s spirit then incarnates inside Rushi’s body, escalating danger and prompting a brutal confrontation. Narasimha Rayudu, still connected to the living world, briefly seizes Manoj’s body to push back.

Amrutha sacrifices her life to release Bhupati’s soul from the living realm, allowing the living to find a fragile peace. The act marks a turning point that stabilizes the palace’s immediate crisis. The story closes on a hopeful note as the legacy of Gandharva Mahal endures.
