Sri Manjunatha is a 2001 Indian Telugu language movie, directed by K. S. Ravi Kumar and starring Arjun Sarja, Chiranjeevi, and Soundarya in the leading roles. The movie is a spiritual and mythological story, with a strong emphasis on devotion and faith. The story revolves around the life and times of a devotee named Manjunatha, who is an ardent follower of Lord Shiva. The film takes place in the town of Kurnool, where a wealthy businesswoman named Neelakanta (played by Amrish Puri) and his wife Parvathi (played by Meena) live. Neelakanta is a staunch follower of Lord Shiva and is known to perform various religious rituals to please the deity. One day, while performing one such ritual, he encounters a young boy named Manjunatha, who he takes in as his own son after being impressed by the boy's devotion.

Over time, Manjunatha grows up to become a devout follower of Lord Shiva and becomes an expert in performing various religious rituals. He also becomes a close confidante of Neelakanta and develops a deep connection with his daughter, Parvathi. However, their happiness is short-lived as Neelakanta's brother-in-law, who is envious of his wealth and influential position, plots against him and eventually succeeds in turning his own daughter, Parvathi, against him.

As the story progresses, Manjunatha is tasked with a huge responsibility of building a temple dedicated to Lord Shiva. He undertakes this daunting task and gains the support of several other devotees, who help him in his endeavor. However, obstacles arise, as Neelakanta's brother-in-law tries to stop him from building the temple, and makes several attempts to sabotage his efforts.

Despite the challenges, Manjunatha perseveres and ultimately completes building the temple that becomes a symbol of his unwavering faith and commitment to Lord Shiva. The movie ends on a positive note, showcasing the power of faith, devotion, and love overcoming all obstacles in life.
