This film is the 999th movie of Maestro Ilaiyaraaja as a music director.
Abhi (Naga Shourya) is a desperate youth who wants to have fun in life. He is addicted to various social networking sites and always looks for reasons to flirt with girls. During his search, he comes across a simple girl and becomes good friends with her.This is also the time when he falls for Prardhana (Pallak Lalwani) and starts getting close to her. Twist in the tale arises when Abhi gets caught in an uncompromising situation in Prardhana’s house. Hell breaks loose as both the families of the couple disown them for good. Left clueless, Abhi leaves Pradhana alone in this tricky situation. He gets yet another shock of his life when he comes to know that his close online friend is none other than Prardhana. Rest of the story is as to how Abhi gets his deeds right and wins her love back.
Maestro Ilaiyaraaja scored the music, while lyrics were penned by Rehman, Chaitanya Varma and Sirasri.
The Hindu panned Abbayitho Ammayi, describing the leads' virtual relationship as "overdrawn, outdated and melodramatic." They also wrote that "Songs are good but the re-recording and background score leave a lot to be desired." Indiaglitz gave the film a rating of 3/5 stars, calling it as a coming-of-age love story with interesting plot and fair narration, appreciating Ilaiyaraaja' s music and good chemistry of lead pair Naga Shourya and Pallak Lalwani. Venkat of Greatandhra gave 2.25/5 stars mentioning that the film is a big bore, except for visual quality and climax portions. He also blamed the silly story, outdated comedy and illogical sequences as the drawback of the film.
