Ranarangam

In Spain, Sanjay is a contractor, who takes the help of an MLA from Visakhapatnam to convince a liquor baron named Deva to clear a slum area which can be used for the construction of the Vizag International Airport, so that the value of the neighboring land, which is meant for the construction and belonging to Sanjay, will increase. However, Deva refuses the request.

1990: In Visakhapatnam, Deva and his friends sell movie tickets in black. Deva falls in love with Gita. When the prohibition of alcohol is announced in 1995, Deva decides to enter the illegal liquor business by smuggling alcohol from Orissa into the city and selling it. In this process, Deva and his gang subsequently lock horns with another illegal liquor baron and MLA Simhachalam.

Deva and his gang are imprisoned for 6 months after being caught smuggling a truckload of liquor into the state. When they are released, they attack and steal a consignment of liquor belonging to Simhachalam. A slow shift in power takes place, as Deva bribes higher officials who were on Simhachalam’s payroll. In retribution, Simhachalam murders Deva’s friends and orchestrates a bomb blast that kills his wife Gita, hours after she had given birth to Sahasra. A vengeful Deva goes on a killing spree, finishing Simhachalam’s associates and shutting down his criminal empire, as Simhachalam himself goes into hiding.

Present: Deva and his daughter Sahasra become well acquainted with Geetha, a doctor. During an outing to a mall with Sahasra and Geetha, an assassination attempt is made on Deva by Sanjay, who has colluded with Deva’s rivals in Spain and is being assisted by Simhachalam. Geetha and Sahasra are kidnapped by Simhachalam in Deva’s absence. Deva agrees and flies to Visakhapatnam to meet Simhachalam.

In a turn of events, Deva reveals that he had secretly found and murdered Simhachalam 10 days after the latter had gone into hiding, and is aware that the man pretending to be Simhachalam and orchestrating the scam is Deva’s right-hand man Suri. Suri reveals that his thirst for power and jealousy that Deva rose above them all despite the business being all of theirs led to his betrayal. Suri’s men attack him instead of Deva, revealing that they are working for the latter. Deva kills Suri, Sanjay and the Home Minister, and returns to Spain.

The film was released theatrically on 15 August 2019.[5] The film was later dubbed and released in Hindi as Don Returns on 4 April 2021 by Goldmines Telefilms directly on their TV channel, Dhinchaak.[6]
