her. She is also a shy girl, who never let Ganesh know about
her feelings. Sirisha (Preethi) is the younger sister of Sandhya,
who is studying in a hostel. When she comes home for holidays,
she gets jealous of Sandhya for loving Ganesh and she wanted
to grab him from her. Sirishna assures Sandhya that she will
liaison the love of Sandhya between Ganesh and Sandhya and
plays a double game by playing tricks on Ganesh to attract
him. Meantime, the father of Sandhya and Sirisha gets transferred
to Vizag. Sandhya asks Sirisha to tell Sandhya's love to Ganesh.
Sirishna proposes to Ganesh and gets rejected. Sandhya, who
witnessed the entired episode secretly, feels cheated by the

away from proposing to Ganesh for the fear of rejection. The
family of Sandhya moves to Vizag. In the transfer process

the purity in her love and wants to meet her and propose his
love to her. He jets off to Vizag along with his friend Chacha
(Venu Madhav). There he finds a mutual friend Raghu (Sivaji)
and stays in his house. Raghu is a rich bachelor, who is staying

he does not want to betray him. Sandhya has agreed to marriage
since she does not want to make the things worse for her father
and sister. But she still loves Ganesh. Sirisha wants to amend

are going to tie the knot in a few minutes. You have to watch

climax.
Performances:
Artists:
Tarun:
Tarun did this tailor made role with an ease of perfectionist.
In this film too his character gets lot of sympathy just like
his character in Nuvve Kavali.
Sneha:
The newcomer is in her elements in this film. This natural
beauty is the perfect fit for the role. She has very few dialogues
in this film and carried the most of her action through expressions.
Preethi:
She is a misfit in this film. A girl with josh is needed for
this character and Preethi made a mess out of it.
Technical
Departments:
Story,
Screenplay & direction: Bala Sekharan, the man who
directed the Tamil version of Pawan Kalyan's Suswagatham,
did try to repeat the success by weaving another one sided
love story. The flash back in the first-half is narrated though
the series of leaflets from the memoirs of the Hero. He could
have made the script a crisp one. Because of the nature of
story, this film went on a slow pace. He could have made the
film little shorter. Nonetheless, he made sure that this film
too have all the clean ingredients the youth is looking for.
Dialogues:
Ramana Chintalapalli, who was in hot seat during the days
of 'Toli Prema' penned dialogues for this film. There is one
particular eye-opening dialogue in this film, which goes on
like this - "Manishiki Manishiki rayabaaraalu vundochukaani
- Manaduki Manasuki raayabaaraalu undakoodadu'. There is another
full-length dialogue for Venu Madhav that evokes lot of laugh.
Music:
Songs of this film work like the typical slow poisoning by
SA Raj Kumar. 'Manasuna Vunnadi' song is the highlight of
the film, which represents the state of heart of the secretly
admiring heroine. There is one particular catchy guitar bit
in this film that comes repeatedly, which comes in the starting
of the song 'Manasuna Vunnadi'.
Production:
RB Chowdary, like any other seasoned successful producer,
knows the pulse of the viewers and according the select the
scripts and directors.
Analysis:
This film started with a low note as an average film. Courtesy
- the movie-eater Narasimha Naidu. With the help aggressive
publicity, a good film can never fail. Over the next few weeks,
it made an unexpected turnaround to become a good hit, as
the collection sour up week after week. If you are patient
enough to watch a little slow paced film, this movie is a
best bet.
