The movie is about a mischievous, educated, small-town boy. He is sent abroad to marry a girl of Indian origin. He takes his best friend along and they decide to play a prank and change identities. As fate would have it they fall in love with two girls while still in the assumed identities. This leads to complications and comic situations, especially when the fake identities become intertwined. The film was shot mainly in the USA over a 93-day schedule and has the most awesome visuals possible. MM Keeravani's songs top up the whole entertainment package.
