Soggade Chinni Nayana revolves around the soul of Bangarraju, a flirtatious zamindar whom Yama (the god of the underworld) sends back to earth to reconcile his son (Ram “Ramu” Mohan) and his wife Seetha; they are on the brink of divorce. In the process, he learns about his death and its connection with a local Shiva temple.
