A girl’s father dies in an accident. Her shocked mother poisons her two daughters and she also consumes to commit suicide. She and the elder daughter die. The younger daughter is in coma. She recovers. But her uncle refuses to take the burden of raising her. As the drama unfolds on the road, a famous director stops by. He says he will take the responsibility of taking care of the child and her education. Why, he even tells her that he will get all his property.
The good guy Sidharth (Nara Rohit) wins the heart of the people. Not long after, his wife Anjali (Darshana Banik) is killed. The needle of suspicion is on Sidharth. Public prosecutor Veerendra (Jagapathi Babu) has all the evidence to point to Sidharth as the culprit. This public prosecutor is not the regular prosecutor who presses for charges on behalf of the behalf against the accused. He’s someone, as he declares, stands for justice, on whichever side it is. He even refuses to heed to the request of the chief minister to let go a case against a cheap liquor trader who causes the deaths of many.
But just when the court can pass a judgement and declare the guilty in Anjali’s case, the public prosecutor asks for a reinvestigation in the case. A carpenter, an ex-lover of Anjali is found guilty and given the death sentence as the accused also admits to the crime in the open court. That’s not the end of the story. It turns out to be the beginning. The case takes a dramatic turn and it is a battle of wits between the public prosecutor and the real culprit who moves is smart in moving his pawns.
Director Parachuri Murali could have tightened the story and not too much of emotion unnecessarily. The game of one upmanship is good to a certain point to keep the viewer on the edge of the seat. The less said the better about the camera work and technical qualities. For some reason, the cameraman is obsessed with close up and extreme close-up shots. Nothing impresses about Nara Rohit’s acting. It actually is depressing to watch him move his whole body frame with little acting. In any case he’s trying to look for sympathy most of the time.
