The king has 36 wives and 52 children, believing his nine ministers are Navarathnams of his court. Tenaliraman infiltrates the court using his charm, singing, dancing, sharp wit, and sense of humor.
Meanwhile, other ministers sell out to Chinese who want to take over the kingdom and expand their market. Tenaliraman comes to the king's rescue in a story that unfolds from there.
