Buddi urf Harikrishna Prasad (Sai Kiran) is a total loser. Fathered by a loser (Tanikella Bharani) who is as crass as they get, and with posh mother and sister in tow, this guy is totally confused and spineless and looks gay-ish. Apart from that, he (the actor, not the character) has no idea what acting is, looks good in "I'm a nerd' roles for all the wrong reasons, has a horrible sense of dressing and wears his hair all wrong. I shall stop at that 'cos I kinda like the guy.He falls in love with Sravanti (Jennifer), who spends more time laughing at him than singing duets with him. She reciprocates for reasons that are sure to be included in the "Reasons Too Good To Be Stated" list. She turns down a rich brat called Vikrant (Shivaji) for the same afore-mentioned reasons. The rich brat is rubbed on the wrong side, and so rapes her. The hero meanwhile is busy parting his hair down the middle.The girl shows character, however, and after giving the brat and his dad the sandal treatment, gets them arrested. However, all this is post-rape. The hero's dad is incensed 'cos his son wants to marry a rape victim, and tries to tempt his son with his country cousin who strips every time Sachin scores a boundary (see it to believe it). The guy remains untempted, finds his spine fifteen minutes before the movie is over, beats up the bad guy (why now?) and stops the girl from going away to Delhi.

Analysis :

The songs are okay. The direction seems tolerable, too. The songs fit in fine and the pair dances well. The cinematography et al is pretty decent, too. And these last few lines definitely show that my heart isn't in it!

TeluguOne Perspective :

Once again, a director here tries to portray rape as an issue that deserves more social concern that it gets. The play here is, of course, on the word 'tries'. And he 'fails', and 'miserably'. The way the subject is portrayed here would cause social concern all right, but for rather different reasons. Scantily clad girls displaying promiscuous behavior and a lot of sexual innuendo in conversation and mannerisms that nowadays passes for comedy is the prime fare, and when you add the lewdness with which the rape scene is shot, and the reaction of the frontbenchers to it, you shudder!
