Kondaveeti Donga is an action-packed Telugu film released in 1990, directed by A. Kodandarami Reddy. The film features Chiranjeevi in the lead role, supported by Vijayshanti and Amrish Puri. It is a story of a farmer who transforms into a modern-day Robin Hood and fights a group of smugglers in a forest. The movie begins with a magical ritual where a tribal priest foretells that a calamity will fall upon the forest. A man from a village in the vicinity comes to the forest to gather wood, but he gets killed by a group of smugglers who are after the valuable wood in the forest. The smugglers are under the watchful eye of Amrish Puri, who plays Raja Rathnam, the corrupt forest officer. He runs a racket in the area and controls everything, even the law enforcement.

Chiranjeevi plays Raja, a carefree farmer who lives in the village near the forest with his family. He has a special bond with the nature and the animals around him. One day, when he's out in the forest with his cattle, he witnesses Rathnam and his cronies suspending a jeep from a bridge to extract bribes from the driver. Enraged by their inhumane act, Raja confronts them and saves the driver. As a result, Rathnam gets furious and orders his men to teach Raja a lesson.

One night, Rathnam's men enter Raja's house and kill his family. Raja, who is away at the time, comes back to find his loved ones dead. Overwhelmed by the tragedy, he decides to abandon his old life and seek revenge against Rathnam and the smugglers. Raja transforms himself into Kondaveeti Donga, a fearless warrior who fights for justice and protects the forest and its inhabitants.

Kondaveeti Donga becomes the savior of the forest and sets out to eliminate Rathnam's criminal empire. In his journey, he meets a journalist named Rajani (Vijayshanti), who supports his cause and helps him gather more evidence against the smugglers. Rajani also shares a romantic relationship with Kondaveeti Donga, but he doesn't reveal his true identity to her.

The film is full of thrilling action sequences and showcases Chiranjeevi's impeccable performance in the lead role. He gives a power-packed performance as a farmer-turned-avenger and effortlessly switches between his two personas - Raja and Kondaveeti Donga. Vijayshanti also shines in her role as Rajani, the fearless journalist who helps Kondaveeti Donga in his mission.

The music score of the film also stands out, with popular tracks like "Golimar" and "Ranga Ranga Rangasthalana" becoming chartbusters. The cinematography by S. Gopal Reddy beautifully captures the lush green forest and the stunning visuals of the Telugu countryside.

Overall, Kondaveeti Donga is an entertaining film that combines action, romance, and drama to deliver a gripping storyline. The movie showcases Chiranjeevi in one of his most memorable roles and solidifies his status as one of the biggest stars in Telugu cinema.
