What happens

Chanakya Shapatham (transl. Chanakya's vow) is a 1986 Indian Telugu language action film starring Chiranjeevi, Vijayashanti, Rao Gopal Rao and Satyanarayana, produced by D. V. S. Raju and directed by K. Raghavendra Rao. The film marked the third collaboration of Chiranjeevi with Raghavendra Rao after two highly successful films : Adavi Donga and Kondaveeti Raja. However, unlike their previous ventures, Chanakya Shapatham was a critical and commercial failure. Paruchuri brothers had scripted all three films. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
