Narasimhan tries to prove that Kanakan is not the real prince through various methods, but fails every time. He brings in Indrasenan Reddy, the royal advisor for the sake but Indrasenan, aware of the evil intentions of Narasimhan and the Telugu speaking community in the palace, helps Kanakan as he is strong enough to protect the princess.
After Gopalan, Kanakan's brother-in-law blabber in the effect of alcohol, Indrasenan realizes that Kanakambaran is actually Suryanarayanan, who was sent away and later adopted by the palace cook, when an internal attack was made on the royal members 24 years ago. Though he learns the truth, he hides it.
In the meanwhile, Narasimhan and gang, with the help of Tripurasundari gets the information of Kanakan being a drama artist and exposes him, leading to the heartbreak of Kanchanalakshmi.
