A sour tale, the story begins with a flashback narrated by Manisha (Tashu) and she turns back time to three years when she graduates. Manisha is totally in love with close friend Chakri (akshay) but he is not responsive about it. They also have friends- Shiva who has a weakness for girls and Seenu who has a weak mind. In comes another girl Pavani (ritika) and Chakri goes crazy about her thinking it is love. Though Manisha is hurt, she still helps Chakri in all means possible. However, Pavani makes Chakri realize that it was just infatuation and an incident happens at Chakri's home which takes him away from all his friends and Manisha over the last three years. What is that incident? Where is Chakri? All this forms the rest of the story.
</td></tr><tr><td class="blacktext12">Presentation:
The director has come up with a noble storyline but both the presentation and narrative was poor. The dialogues were stale, the script was weak and the screenplay was amateur. Background score was intruding but three songs are worth humming. Cinematography was alright. Editing had many jerks and was abrupt. Costumes were natural while the art department made its presence felt. Akshay needs to do a lot of homework if he is planning to make a career. His body language, dialogue delivery, expressions, poise in front of the camera has to improve. The good side for him is his handsome looks, deep based voice. Ritika attempted to give her share of visual feast but thanks to poor make up and jerky shots, her sex appeal was not used convincingly, she needs another chance. Brahmi was stale, Chandramohan was matured, Poornima was not her full self, M S Narayana and Krishna Bhagawan brought few smiles, the actors who did the role of Shiva and Seenu were okay. The only saving grace and life giver to the film is Tashu Kaushik. She was bubbly, danced impressively, got the right kind of expressions and showed a positive body language. Given her earlier film, Tashu proved her mettle as a performer and she will shine if given the right roles and right banners. The others didn't have much to do.
</td></tr><tr><td class="blacktext12">Conclusion:
The total blame for the film's poor output is the director. He lacked the basic skills of presenting a film or extracting an emotion from an actor. While the opening is neat, the film begins to peel off with each passing scene and before interval, the tempo goes down. The second half was somewhat consoling due to Tashu's experience and screen presence. Overall, the film has poor writing, passable technical values, better songs and ignorant narrative. The makers have to do some aggressive publicity to get the film into safe zone at the box office.
