==Plot==<br />
<br />
Karthik (Charan), hailing from a rich family, is quite inept in his academics. Neha ([[Shriya Saran]]) is Subbu's ([[Chandra Mohan (Telugu actor)|Chandra Mohan]]) daughter and she's motherless. Karthik is the senior of Neha in the college and rags her quite a bit. When Karthik's mother Lakshmi ([[Poonam Dhillon]]) meets with an accident, Neha rescues and admits her in a hospital. Over time, Lakshmi and Neha become friends and Neha falls in love with Karthik. But when Subbu proposes to get Karthik and Neha married, Lakshmi refuses. The film is about why Lakshmi doesn't accept the marriage, who initially wanted Neha to marry Karthik.<br />
