Parandhamayya
(Suman) is a mallayuddam warrior in a village. He has
a training institute where he teaches the art of mallayuddam.
Basava Punnayya (Rajan P Dev) uses a fighter called
Yalamanda (Ponnambalam) and defeats Parandhamayya in
a fight. As per the rules, Parandhamayya is forced to
write all his properties to Basava Punnayya and leave
the village for 10 years. The rest of the story is about
how Vikram (Vikram) - son of Parandhamayya - returns
to village to seek revenge on Basava Punnayya and Yalamanda
by killing them.
Vikram - son of MS Narayana
- is definitely not a hero material. He is very poor
in looks department and pretty mediocre in histrionics
aspect. His dialogue delivery is pathetic. Mounika
is average in her role. Aditi
Agarwal has put on some weight to cater to the
tastes of Telugu audiences. Comedy by MS
Narayana, Brahmanandam and Sunil
is inane. Rajan P Dev is
fair. Ponnambalam's antics
are irritating. Prakash Raj
is OK in a typical role. Suman
is good in his role, but has got a hapless footage.
The guy who imitated Mohan Babu is not up to the mark.
Story
- Dialogues - Screenplay - direction: It is a typical
revenge seeking story where son finishes the battle.
Screenplay by MS Narayana is old-fashioned and looks
contrived at times. Direction is mediocre. Dialogues
written by MS Narayana are not up to the mark. He gave
unnecessary references to the historical personalities
and events through Prakash Raj's character. 
Analysis:
The first 15 minutes of the film is interesting. The
film is bad in the first half. The interval bang is
an anticlimax. Second half is equally bad. The main
drawbacks of the film are hero Vikram and director MS
Narayana. MS Narayana might want his son to become famous.
It does not mean that he should launch him into showbiz
as hero. By launching his own son as hero, MS Narayana
did more harm to Vikram than any help. MS Narayana should
stick to what he is good at. Acting that is!!
