The late NTR senior continues to be an inspiration for filmmakers who venture to do films with the junior. Dialogue writers Paruchuri Brothers, who had scripted many films for late NTR, seem to revel at their present involvement with NTR Jr. Director B Gopal also does his bit in creating song situation for the hero and heroine, Aarti, to recall the magic of NTR - Sridevi. Rayalaseema continues to be the source of inspiration for the action movies.

Sivaramakrishna (NTR) and Mythili (Aarti Agrawal) are relatives but get separated in their childhood after they playfully get married. Though Mythili's parents write it off as a prank, Ramu's grandfather (K Viswanath) takes it seriously and keeps the thread with him, hoping that the children will grow up and marry one day.

Mythili's mother, Chamundeswari, is an industrialist, and wants her daughter to get married to the son of a State minister (Vizag Prasad) so that she can get the help and contracts to develop her own enterprise.

Ramu enters Chamundeswari's house as a domestic help and then workds his way up to win the confidence of Chamundeswari, who is none other than his later father's sister.

He also wins the heart of Mythili. There is another relative of Ramu, Rukhmini (Gajala), who is in love with him. The drama around two girls is worth watching. NTR has put up a matured performance. His dialogue delivery is perfect with good punctuation and diction. The boy has converted that little bit of hoarseness in his voice into advantage, to roar at his enemies.

Gajala and Aarti get routine roles with Aarti's being a shade better. It is too early for Nagma to play the role of a mother-in-law, the kind of roles that Vanisri and Sharada played in the later part of their career.

Naresh playing her henpecked-husband does not look comfortable at all. Paruchuri Brothers display, once again, their skills in presenting old win in a new bottle and make it look refreshing. Music makes no impact at all in the film.
