Official trailer and plot of Mahavatar Narsimha
Mahavatar Narsimha is based on the story of Narsimha, the fourth avatara of the Hindu god Vishnu.
The film is set in the realm of Demigods and Demons, where an asura king, Hiranyakashyap, is hell-bent on avenging his brother Hiranyaksha, who was slain by the hands of Lord Vishnu's Varaha avatar.
Hiranyakashyap seeks penance from Lord Brahma, which offers him immense power and a seemingly immortal life. This leads him to rule over heaven, earth, and hell, declaring himself a God.
His five-year-old son Prahlad is the complete opposite of what he stands for, signaling a virtue of faith towards Lord Vishnu. Furious over his son's beliefs, Hiranyakashyap tries to kill his son multiple times, only to face failure every time.
At a moment when all seems to be lost, Lord Vishnu takes up the avatar of Narasimha, personifying as a god of destruction and saving Prahlad. The avatar slays Hiranyakashyap for once and for all, putting an end to his tyranny and restoring balance to the world.
