Manchu Manoj comes back afte a long hiatus post the success of Current Teega. Unlike his earlier films, Manchu Manoj presents a decent look and a settled performance. Similarly, director Dasarath, who usually makes family entertainers, has changed the track and made a crime thriller. Did both succeed in their respective endeavours? Let's see.
Storyline
Shourya (Manchu Manoj) and Netra (Regina) are in love. But, Shourya's father (Nagineedu) and uncle (Subbaraju) oppose this. So, both decide to run away and settle in the UK. Before they leave for the UK, they arrive at Netra's village to spend a night in the village temple. On that night, someone tries to slit Netra's throat and Sourya gets implicated. The police also take the case seriously as Netra's father is an MP. Who tried to kill Nethra? Why did he try to kill her? Why was Shourya implicated? How Shourya manages to track down the real culprits forms the story.

Performance:
Manoj's performance, specially during emotional scenes, is exceptional. He portrayed both positive and negative angles with aplomb. He is the biggest plus in the film. Regina acts naturally and looks beautiful. Prakash Raj does a very good job as the police officer. Nagineedu, Subbaraju and Sayaji Shinde do justice to their their roles. The comedy track of Prabhas Sreenu works out very well.

Technical:
Dasarath stumbles while making this thriller with many twists and turns. The second half of the film is slightly sluggish and at places, it leaves the viewer wondering whether this is a thriller. But, there are several interesing twists in the film and the climax is very good. Veda's background score is quite appealing.
