The film starts off with Dheerappan (cinematic character of Veerappan) getting killed by police. A journalist knows where Dheerappan put up all his wealth in the dense Nityamangalam forests. He dies in a firing and he hands over his diary to his colleague Basu or Bhavaraju Suryanarayan (Aryan Rajesh). Basu hatches a plan to steal the 'treasure'. He recruits a doctor Devika (Hansa Nandini), a guide (Jaya Prakash Reddy), a bomb disposable team (Vanitha Reddy), a cook and a driver. They hire a van and head for Nityamangalam forests. After many hurdles they finally find the treasure. But the unexpected things occur. The team members get killed by one by one. Was Dheerapan really dead? Or was he alive? Watch out it.

Analysis :

The only plus point in the film is the excellent and efficient direction of Vamsee and his screenplay. Though most of the faces in the lead cast are not familiar, he was able to run the show very effectively. Another plus point is the fantastic re-recording done by Illayaraja. The music had elevated the tempo of the film to certain extent. PG Vinda's cinematography helped in maintaining the tempo and suspense in the film. The camera work is in tune with the thriller story. But the lead cast is very poor. Neither Aryan Rajesh nor Hamsanandini could catch the glimpse of the audiences as their performance is quite artificial. Even the girl who played the role of Kamini is also not worth looking at despite a "heavy exposure" of skin. Another minus point in the film is the unfamiliar faces in the lead cast. Though their comedy is good enough because of the able direction of Vamsee, they could not evoke much laughter by the audiences. Editor Srikara Prasad should have made the film crisper.

TeluguOne Perspective :

The film might go well with 'A' centre audiences but in the absence of any mass masala ingredients, the success of the film again a big question mark.
