Story


Shiva is a 1990 Indian Bollywood action film released on Dec 07, 1990. The film is directed by Ram Gopal Varma, produced by A. Venkat.
Shiva is a new guy in the society college. He is welcomed by a group of members, involving the lovely Asha, to whom Shiva is instantly infatuated to and falls in love with her. Shiva notices that there is trouble within the college by people who are not even students. When he agrees to find out their objectives and mission, his life is haunted with troubles, and anxieties. Now Shiva must decide to take place up for his college, or just holding on studying, finish his studies, and proceed on to take ahead his life.

The film opens with a bunch of gangsters, led by Ganesh , waiting outside the (fictional) VAS college of Arts & Sciences. A college student JD (JD Chakravarthy) gestures to the goons and they proceed to savagely assault another student and his friends.

It turns out that JD is a student leader, a big-man-on-campus, who is the (unopposed) President of the Student Union at the college. He is also the lowest rung in a gang ladder that reaches through Ganesh, the local goon, to Bhavani (Raghuvaran). Bhavani uses this network to provide political (and criminal, as needed) muscle to the local politician Machiraju (Kota Srinivasa Rao).

Shivkumar (Nagarjuna) is a new student at college. He joins a small group of friends including Malli (Shubalekha Sudhakar) and Asha (Amala). JD is known to cause petty troubles (such as leering at the girls and insulting the professors). He falls upon Shiva in a chance encounter. When he provokes Shiva, Shiva hits back. Further, Shiva chases JD across campus in plain sight and inflicts vicious punishment. JD is shocked as nobody has previously confronted him like this for fear of his gang connections.

This incident sparks two things. JD fetches Ganesh to sort out Shiva, and, Malli and the other students, now encouraged by Shiva's actions, implore Shiva to run for President at the next election. Shiva proposes that the more qualified but nerdy Naresh (Jagan) run instead. Ganesh first attempts to talk Shiva out of it. But Shiva tells him off, claiming that college matters are to be kept within the campus community and that lowly gangsters from outside need not interfere.

When Ganesh attempts to use force, Shiva beats him back too. The matter comes before Bhavani. Bhavani is mildly annoyed, but he studies Shiva as a potential replacement for JD. At his behest, Naresh is assaulted and rendered unable to run. At this point, Shiva accepts the nomination and decides to run.

Meanwhile, Bhavani has other troubles. He refuses to side with a worker's union leader Krishna Reddy. Krishna Reddy takes his plight to Shiva; Shiva agrees to help in return for muscle; and Krishna Reddy provides this by calling upon the workers. Around this time, Asha expresses a romantic interest in Shiva. The friendship progresses and they eventually marry.

The stage is now set. Bhavani launches a set of sniper attacks on those close to Shiva. Shiva retaliates in kind and takes out many of Bhavani's leaders. Machiraju notices that Shiva is launching a fitting response to Bhavani and decides to stop supporting Bhavani. Angered, humiliated and defeated, Bhavani strikes Shiva's home
