Bhadra is a 2005 Indian Telugu-language romantic action drama film directed by debutant Boyapati Srinu. Produced by Sri Venkateswara Creations, the film stars Ravi Teja and Prakash Raj. The film has music composed by Devi Sri Prasad with cinematography and editing by Arthur A. Wilson and Marthand K. Venkatesh respectively.

It has been dubbed in Hindi and Bhojpuri as Badala and in Malayalam as Brahmam. The film was later remade into Tamil as Saravana, Kannada as Gaja, Bengali as Josh and Bangladeshi as Bhalobeshe Morte Pari (2010).

Plot[edit | edit source]

Bhadra and Raja are the thickest of friends. Bhadra notices Raja's sister Anu in a video-recorded call and gets attracted to her instantly. After some days, the story moved to the engagement of Bhadra's sister. The house is full of joy and laughter, awaiting Bhadra's return from college. However, when Bhadra returns, the family members are shocked. He has brought home distraught and frightened Anu, whom he introduces as his friend.

The marriage preparations continue, with everyone wondering who Anu is. Bhadra's uncle, however, cannot control his emotions. He wants his daughter to marry Bhadra, and is afraid Anu will spoil this. Eventually, Bhadra's uncle confronts him about Anu. Anu gets upset and an argument ensues. Later, as Bhadra and Anu go to a restaurant to eat, a gang comes. Bhadra chases them for a while and beats all of them up. Realizing he has left Anu behind, Bhadra returns to the restaurant. However, Anu is not there. Frightened, he was walking on road where he escaped from accident saved by his father. Finally, Bhadra's father forces him to tell them what is going on. Then a flashback begins.

When Raja visits his home village, Bhadra visits along with him. Anu, who returns from London, is impressed by Bhadra, who continually impresses her based on her tastes. He gets along well with Raja's and Anu's family. Meanwhile, Bhadra convinces them that he would make a prospective groom for Anu.

Anu's family, mainly her brother Surendra and cousin, are involved in regional gangs in their village. When Anu takes Bhadra to the temple for a visit without Surendra's knowledge, a rival gang member group is attacked by Anu's cousin's group members, and one member of the rival group gets hold of Anu and threatens to kill her. In a swift action of bravery and skill, Bhadra knocks down the rival group member.

After this incident, Surendra gives Bhadra a talk about why things are so violent in the village. He explains how he is a master's degree holder from a prestigious university, BITS Pilani, and how his wife is also a master's degree holder. Unfortunately, due to the nature of the villages, the rivalry is deadly and fatal. He ultimately says that even though the villages are violent, he will remain a noble person with high ideals.

After a few days though, in the most ungrateful manner and a show cowardice, the rival gang fights with fierce brutality, and the rival gang leader Veerayya murders Raja's entire family except Anu. Bhadra makes the promise to Surendra that he will take up the responsibility of Anu and that he will eventually marry her. In the process, he also becomes a rival of Veerayya as he kills his younger brother Tulasi to protect Anu. When Veerayya finds out that Tulasi was killed by Bhadra, he decides to kill him instead of Anu.

Meanwhile, Surendra's men trace Anu and bring her to Bhadra's home. Feeling that she is not safe anymore here, Bhadra plans to send her abroad. Anu is not happy with his decision as she loves him. On the day Anu is supposed to leave to London, she meets Bhadra and Raja's friend at the airport. The girl tells Anu about Bhadra's devotion for her. She also knows that they chose Bhadra as Anu's bridegroom before her family was killed. She realizes she cannot leave Bhadra, and leaves the airport. She manages to find Bhadra, who is fighting the villains. After he defeats Veerayya, Bhadra and Anu embrace. Before Veerayya can kill Bhadra, one of Surendra's henchmen kills him. Then the movie ends.
