Plot
Vicky (Sumanth), an unemployed man, with seemingly no purpose in life, lives with his grandmother and widowed mother (Rajya Lakshmi). Their family survives on a beauty parlour business. Dr Aanjaneyulu (Tanikella Bharani) runs an infertility clinic, and is in search of a good sperm donor. He comes across Vicky, and is enamored by him and his forefathers. After some convincing, Vicky eventually starts selling his sperm to Aanjaneyulu, filling the lives of many childless couples with joy. It's a win-win for Vicky and Aanjaneyulu as both grow rich.
Meanwhile, Vicky falls in love with a divorced bank employee, Aashima Roy (Pallavi Subhash). Never revealing that he's a sperm donor, Vicky marries her. But problems arise when Aashima gets to know the truth. Vicky eventually reconciles with his wife, after Aanjaneyulu helps her understand the true benefits of sperm donation.

Reception
Critical reception
Deccan Chronicle gave 2 out of 5 stars stating "Naruda Donaruda is a fresh subject which could have been made much better. Except for Thanikella Bharani’s performance in a few scenes, the movie has nothing interesting. And it’s not a good comeback for Sumanth".[4] The Indian Express stated "Watch it for Tanikella Bharani’s performance. But don’t expect it to be a joyride right through. Entertainment is on offer only in parts, the rest is boring".[5]
