Plot

Sweety, a college student, crosses paths with Gagan when he bravely defends her friend from harassment by Vikram Verma, the son of powerful Central Minister Jegannath Verma. This incident triggers a series of events that lead Sweety to Gagan's unconventional but close-knit family. Gagan lives with his father, Chakravarthy, and brother, Pruthvi. Their carefree lifestyle, involving alcohol, street food, and vigilantism, takes a turn when Sweety becomes a part of their lives. Sweety's influence inspires positive changes in their lifestyle, and even Chakravarthy embraces the transformation. As the story unfolds, Sweety learns about Pruthvi's love struggles and successfully reconciles the situation. Witnessing the happiness Sweety brings, Chakravarthy acknowledges her positive impact and urges Gagan to stand by her always.

Parallelly, a

corporate
tycoon, Ashwith Narayana Varma, driven by prestige, orchestrates a tragic incident involving his daughter's forbidden romance. The narrative introduces Arjun Pawar, a formidable liquor baron, and his brothers, who pose a threat to Narayana's business plans. Sweety and Gagan's love blossoms, but their happiness is short-lived when Sweety's father, JP, disapproves of Gagan due to his lifestyle and Chakravarthy's reputation. Gagan's attempt to win JP's approval ends in a violent confrontation, forcing Sweety to prioritize her father's safety over their relationship.

Heartbroken, Gagan faces a life-threatening accident, prompting Chakravarthy to send him away to Vizag for safety. Gagan encounters Falguni, his father's cousin, whose carefree lifestyle contrasts with Sweety's. Fate leads Gagan to a beach party, where he intervenes in an attack on Narayana's family by Arjun's brother. Gagan saves Sweety's life, but he is shot and left for dead. With Narayana's help, Gagan survives and learns of the forced marriage plan between Sweety and Narayana's son, Veerendra. However, the wedding takes a tragic turn when Veerendra is killed by Arjun's men, leading to Sweety's captivity.

Facing a moral dilemma, JP is coerced into letting Sweety go, as she is left widowed and without family ties. Gagan, determined to protect Sweety, discovers a secret deal between Narayana's sister and Arjun. As Narayana's family performs a ritual at the Hamsala Devi river, they are ambushed by Arjun's men.

In a dramatic showdown, Gagan, Chakravarthy, and Pruthvi rescue Sweety, eliminating the threat. Narayana's prestige suffers, and the story takes a darker turn as he allies with Arjun to eliminate Gagan. In a fierce battle, Chakravarthy and Pruthvi are gravely injured, Sweety is kidnapped again, but Gagan emerges victorious.

Gagan confronts Narayana, revealing the cost of his alliance with Arjun, leading to Narayana's tragic demise. Gagan and Sweety reunite amidst the chaos, marking the end of their tumultuous journey.

Production

Development

Hyderabad on 27 August 2014.[8][9] Devi Sri Prasad was declared as the music director, Arthur A. Wilson was declared as the cinematographer, A. S. Prakash was declared as the art director while the story and dialogues were written by M. Rathnam. The film was said to be on the lines of Boyapati Srinu's debut film Bhadra and the script work was complete by then.[10] Nallamalupu Bujji was reported to replace Bellamkonda Suresh as the film's producer due to the latter's financial crisis.[11] However, Sreenivas confirmed that his father would produce the film and it has been delayed due to story discussions but not due to financial problems.[12]

Casting

Early reports said that

Tamannaah was selected as the female lead who said that her role was well written, unique and something she never did in her earlier films.[15] On the day of launch, Boyapati Srinu said that another heroine will act in a guest role.[16] Reports in mid-October 2014 suggested that Tamannaah may opt out of the film as she has to accommodate dates for Baahubali and for a Tamil film.[17] In early November 2014, it was known that Sreenivas is working on his body language and would sport a new look for the film.[18]

Due to the halt in the project, the search for the female lady began in January 2016 and it was reported that makers are keen on signing Shruti Haasan or Rakul Preet Singh.[19] On 17 January 2016 it was confirmed that Rakul Preet Singh was signed in as a female lead on paying her an amount of ₹1.50 crore (US$190,000).[20] Pragya Jaiswal was cast as the second female lead.

Filming

The makers planned to start the regular shooting in early November 2014.[21] In early November 2016, the filming was announced to start in December 2016 once Sreenivas undergoes the transformation envisioned by Boyapati Srinu.[22]

The principal photography began in mid-November 2016.[23]

After a much delay of two years the shooting commenced in November 2016.[24][25]

Release

It was released on 11 August 2017.

The film was also dubbed into

Flowers TV[26] and released on YouTube by Pen Movies channel, which has reached more than 800 million views.[27]
