Summary

The story portrays an illiterate Puliraju (Chiranjeevi), who is a small-time rowdy in a small town. He meets Jennifer (Suhasini), who arrives in that town as a school teacher. Suhasini slaps and berates him for ill-treating his mother. Puliraju, instead of taking revenge on her, gets attracted towards her and manages to join as her student. Over a period of time, Puliraju transforms in his looks, behaviour and leaves his past life behind. Over a few reels, they both get attracted towards each other, but neither of them express their feelings. His mother, surprised by changes in his behaviour, brings his maradalu (Raadhika) from his village and tries to marry him off. At the same time, Jennifer's family friend Rajasekhar arrives and her father plans her marriage with him. Puliraju, struggling with change within himself is attacked by his old enemies and is hospitalized. Jennifer reaches the hospital, understands his love towards her and they both unite in the climax.

Reception

The film underperformed at the box office.

gollark: It does still have bugs, though, but almost certainly not "arbitrary code execution (or other significant badness) through a bound query parameter".
gollark: They have 600 times more testing code than, well, library code, and cover *all* of the machine code code paths.
gollark: The only possible way you could SQL-inject it (technically it wouldn't be SQL injection but same principle) would be exploiting some kind of bug in SQLite itself. This is unlikely, as SQLite may literally be one of the most well-tested pieces of software in existence.
gollark: It's using SQLite's parameter binding thingy.
gollark: <@602621355401150464> AutoBotRobot is not vulnerable to SQL injection because I am not an idiot.
