Plot

The film begins with a boy Abhiram, who behaves differently in different situations which causes bewilderment to his father Eeswar Rao (Rajendra Prasad), so he immediately consults a neurosurgeon, Prabhudas (Posani Krishna Murali). Here it is revealed that the boy was born with two brains and holds a dual personality which is triggered by loud noises. Right now, Eeswar Rao raises him as two Abhi / Ram (Aadi Saikumar) dividing and sharing the time. But Abhiram becomes a self-hating person as both the personalities possess contrasting lifestyles. Abhi is a rough, lazy playboy whereas Ram is intelligent and immensely good who wants to dedicate his life to bachelorhood. The story takes a twist when a charming girl Happy (Mishti Chakraborty) enters into his life whom Abhi loves but she falls for Ram looking at his humanity. Ahead, Ram too carries a girlfriend, Aascharya (Naira Shah). As a side plot, Abhiram encounters a goon, Gagan Vihari (Abhimanyu Singh) which throws him into a severe life threat. The rest of the story is a comic tale that culminates into a joyful one.

Reception

The Hindu declares Burra Katha: It’s a no-brainer by Y. Sunita Chowdary, Five minutes into the story, it becomes obvious that we’re headed for an endless, agonizing experience.[7] The Times of India gives 1/5 rating, saying Burra Katha fails to impress and looks like this is yet another fail for Aadi Saikumar, even if he tries his best to deliver an earnest performance.[8] 123telugu.com provides 2/5 ratings, announcing Burrakatha – Disappointing Drama: The concept is interesting but the narration was no up to the mark.[9] Whereas Mirchi-9 grants 1.75/5 stating it as a Brainless And Jaded.[10] NTV says the film lustily outdated object, writer-turned-director Diamond Ratna Babu fails to tell a quirky storyline in an engaging fashion.[11] Telugu Mirchi accords 2/5 professing Burra Katha – A failed drama yet, efforts made by the team is genuine but fails to impress the audiences.[12] The HANS INDIA affirms that the movie doesn't have a solid story that fails to engage the audiences due to a lack of screenplay. Nevertheless, the film begins with an interesting concept and concentrated more on entertainment it is a big letdown.[13]

gollark: Cryogenically freeze yourself until 2025?
gollark: I mean, people aren't actually using it much here, so it's very use-impaired, but it exists.
gollark: Isn't the proposal which got implemented *mostly* that?
gollark: I see.
gollark: And small changes could make it fold very differently sometimes.
