Prince Laksh was sitting sadly in his room. His father Ram comes near him.

Ram: what?... you are always cheerful...and today sad???

Laksh: pitaji, I used to tell about a girl...

Ram: haa...Ragini. You were always dreaming about her, that you will meet her one day...

Laksh: yes...and I saw her today morning.

Ram: waah, then bring her soon son. Marry her. this palace is without women after your mother. Some laxmi has to come and lit lamps again in this palace...

Laksh: but pitaji, she can't come that easily. I can't win her....

Ram: Raakumar...do you really love her??

Laksh nods his head firmly.

Ram: then your love will surely win. Whoever it is... whatever comes in between your love, throw them all aside and gain her...

Laksh: but pitaji...she is...

Ram: I said know...I don't keep objection whoever it is... but that girl should also love you...by the way, who is she...

Laksh looks at Ram. Ram keeps looking at him.

Laksh: Ragini...

Ram: hey ramachandra, I know she is Ragini. But, who is she???

Laksh: Samragni devi...Ragini

Ram shocks with his words. then he start laughing.

Laksh: why are you laughing pitasri??

Ram: don't joke and tell me truth...

Laksh: Samragni Ragini devi herself is my dream goddess pitasri...

Ram falls down from chair. Laksh stands.

Ram: didn't you get any other girl to love? Why only Samragni? She is empress to this whole empire. And you are just a prince to the small kingdom within it... why she will love you??? Listen to my words, I will search a nice princess suitable to us.

Laksh: pitaji...I thought you will encourage me. But, you are discouraging me. Just now you said, whoever it is...whatever it is...

Ram slaps his cheeks once: sorry to tell that. Just forget her. we are her saamantha raaju. And let's be in our limit.

Says Ram and leaves. Laksh keeps thinking.

Laksh: why should I leave? I loved her before I could know that she is empress. I don't care whether she is empress or maid. I want my love...because I love her a lot and no one could love her more than me.

Next morning,

The sabha begins.

Empress Ragini will be coming towards the throne. All people stand and cheer,

"Ragini devi ki jai..."

She sits on the throne.

Adarsh starts the court everyday...

Adarsh: Samragni...some people from a village has come to say their misery...

Ragini: allow them...!

Adarsh calls them.

Some people come and stand before her.

"Maharaani, we don't have sufficient water to drink or for our daily recourses."
