Shailaja (Nithya Menon), daughter of famed philanthropist Shivaji Rao (Sai Kumar), returns home from abroad. She takes a trip to a retreat, where she meets Surya (Nara Rohit) and his household. She falls in love with the kind family, and eventually with Surya as well. However, murder and revenge stand in the way of happiness.
(Cast also includes Nagendra Babu; Rachana Maurya stars in an item number.)
The plot is involved, and isn't always logical, but is still intriguing; there is a particularly good cliff-hanger at the intermission. While the characters are sometimes excessively emotional, the acting is generally good all around, with the leads being particularly unaffected. It was refreshing to see these two appealing principals look attractive in a natural, unsophisticated fashion. The musical numbers are average and below. Due to the music and the, at times, irrational story, I can only give the film three stars; however, I certainly got five stars worth of enjoyment out of it.
