After that, Karna reaches Parasurama (Gummadi), and asks him to be his mentor.

Parasurama accepts his request and Karna becomes expert in

all fields of archery. One day when Parasurama sleeps on the lap of Karna, Indra (again Chalapathi Rao) takes the form of bug and bites Karna,
but Karna didn't disturb the sleep of Parasurama and bears the pain. Due to this blood of Karna flowing, it reaches Parasurama and he wakes up.
Parasurama recognizes him as a Kshatriya and curses him that he will be incapable of using his arms and weapons in need. But afterwards he
comes to know that he is Sutaputra, but unable to remove his curse and to compensate he gives his bow, couch and chariot. While Karna is
returning to the capital city, Indra again takes the form lion killing a cow of a Brahmin, to protect it Karna throws an arrow but unfortunately, the
cow dies and the Brahmin curses him that he will die helplessly in the same way that his innocent cow had died. After reaching the capital, a baby
girl taking ghee accidentally slips in front of his chariot and the baby drops her ghee. Karna could not see the cry of baby tries to squeeze out
ghee from the soil, where Bhudevi curses him that in his last stage he will be insulted by crushing his chariot wheel into her.

In the fort of Hastinapura, tournaments have been arranged to display the skills of the Kuru princes. Here, Dronacharya praises his student Arjuna
as a master of archery. Karna arrives and challenges him in the contest. But Karna is insulted on account of his low birth when Duryodhana
(again N. T. Rama Rao) saves his pride, by making him king of Anga. Karna dedicates his life to Duryodhana. Both of them become soulmates
and they marry on the same day. Time passes, Duryodhana gets an invitation from Dharmaraja (Prabhakar Reddy) for Rajasuyayaga. The
Kauravas, arrive at Indraprastha, Duryodhana visits the Mayasabha, where he is overawed with the beauty of the sculpture and architecture.
However, when he is returning, he trips and falls into a pool. He hears some people laughing and sees Draupadi is among the crowd. He then
concludes that she is behind all this and vows to avenge the insult in the presence of his brothers, Karna and Shakuni (Dhulipala). When they
decide to announce the war, Shakuni calms him down and tells him that they can take revenge by inviting Dharmaraja to a dice game.
Dharamaraja loses everything in that dice game including himself, his brothers and also Draupadi (Sarada). Draupadi is humiliated by
Dushyashana where Lord Krishna (once again N. T. Rama Rao) protects her chastity. The Pandavas are forced into exile for 13 years after
Dharmaraju loses again in the dice game. The Pandavas successfully complete Aranya & Agnathavasam, Lord Krishna moves as a mediator for
negotiations before the battle, but it fails. After that, Krishna meets Karna and reveals his birth secret that he is the blessing of the Sun God (again
Jayabhaskar) to his aunt Kunti (S. Varalakshmi) who has abandoned due to embarrassment. Krishna asks Karna to come and join with the
Pandavas and he will make him as emperor to the world. Karna denies it because he is loyal and indebted to Duryodhana, neither he is ready to
yield for power or lust. Krishna appreciates Karna’s loyalty and moves. Meanwhile Duryodhana and Arjuna move to Krishna for seeking support in
the war. Krishna divides his entire force into two, he being on one side and his entire Yadavas army on other side and asked Arjuna to choose
between. Arjuna chooses Krishna where Duryodhana feels happy that he got Yadava army for his support, but he did not understand the real
significance of Krishna.

During the war, Bhishma (Mikkilineni) is appointed as a chief commander to Kaurava’s army where he insults Karna by declaring him Ardharatha.
Furious, Karna takes an oath that he will not enter into the war until Bhishma is there on the battlefield. The war begins after the collapse of
Bhishma when he is on his Alpaseyam arrow bed, he calls Karna, says sorry for his action and explains the reason that he has done such thing to
protect the piety. Karna takes his blessing and enters the war field. Now Dronacharya becomes the chief commander and gives a boon to
Duryodhana that he will capture Dharmaraja. Dronacharya plans for Padmavyuha when Arjuna is away from the war field because except him, no
one can destroy it. At that stage, to save the honor of the Pandavas, Abhimanyu (Nandamuri Balakrishna) enters the war field. Abhimanyu defeats
whoever came his way and vanquished many. Because it is difficult to defeat him, Duryodhana asks Karna to destroy his bow which is against the
war principle. Due to loyalty, Karna has to do so. Finally, Abhimanyu was killed brutally by the Kauravas. That night, Karna visits the war field and
near Abhimanyu's dead body he feels very low and says that in reality Karna is dead and Abhimanyu is immortal.

Next morning when Karna is returning after offering prayers to the Sun God, Krishna sends Kunti to request Karna to come and join the Pandavas
or else take an oath that he should not kill any of them. Karna blames Kunti for her deeds as a result of which heavy destruction is taking place.
Even then he gives her the boon that except Arjuna he will not kill anyone and tells her that if he dies, she will have five sons if Arjuna dies then
also she will have five sons. Next day Karna enters into the war field even though he gets an opportunity to kill the remaining Pandavas. He uses
Nagastram on Arjuna, but Lord Krishna protects him. It is difficult to defeat Karna, who has armor body protection Kavachakundalalu around his
chest. Indra disguised as a Brahmin, approaches Karna and begs for his armor and earrings. Even aware of Indra's intention, Karna donates it
without any hesitation. Pleased with Karna's generosity, Indra gives him a powerful weapon Vimalam, but states that he can use it only once.
Karna plans it to use on Arjuna, but unfortunately, that night Ghatokacha attacks Kauravas camps and start destroying it, so, in that critical
situation Karna has to use it on Ghatokacha. Next day Selya (Mukkamala), the maternal uncle of the Pandavas is appointed as the charioteer of
Karna who demoralizes him during the war as per the instructions of Krishna. Finally, at the last stage of Karna’s fight, all curses work together
and he collapses. When Arjuna feels as a great warrior, Krishna explains the glory of Karna. Krishna reaches Karna in the form of Bramhin and
begs arms, Karna even at this situation, breaks his golden tooth and donates to Krishna with his blood. Kunti also arrives on the battlefield and
reveals the birth secret of Karna to the whole world. Listening to this, angered Dharmaraja gives a curse to all women that they cannot hold any
secret. Karna dies in Kunti's lap and his soul enters into the Sun god. Seeing the death of Karna, disheartened, Duryodhana leaves the battlefield
and hides in a lake. Due to the provocations of the Pandavas, he comes out of the lake. Dharmaraja asks him to select any one of them as his
equivalent to complete the war. Duryodhana selects Bheema (Satyanarayana). During the time of battle, Krishna secretly signs the life secret of
Duryodhana is in his thighs. Bheema attacks it which is against the war principle. Before dying, he accuses Krishna that Is this a piety of a God?.
Finally, the movie ends with Duryodhana and Karna meeting in heaven and showing the world that their friendship is immortal.
