Directed by the debutant Maari, the film proved that Naveen Polishetty is the undisputed “King of Comedy” for the youth. Despite clashing with heavyweights like Prabhas’ The Raja Saab and Chiranjeevi’s Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, this film became a runaway hit.

The Plot: A Comic Tale of Ambition

The story follows Raju (Naveen Polishetty), a clever young man from the Godavari region who believes in “working smart, not hard.” His definition of working smart? Marrying into a rich family.

He sets his sights on Charulatha (Meenakshi Chaudhary), the daughter of a wealthy landlord, Bhupathi Raju (Rao Ramesh). Raju launches the hilarious “Operation Charulatha” to win her heart. However, the twist comes after the wedding: Raju discovers his father-in-law is actually buried in debt, and he has essentially “married into a liability.” The film is a sharp, funny satire on social status and the lengths people go to for a “perfect” wedding.
