The film was remade in Tamil as Mazhai starring Jayam Ravi and Shriya Saran and in Odia as Barsa My Darling. It was dubbed in Hindi as Baarish-The season of love. The movie has also been loosely remade into Hindi as Baaghi starring Tiger Shroff and Shraddha Kapoor
Venkat (Prabhas) meets Shailaja (Trisha) in a train journey and they immediately get attracted to each other after dancing in a rain shower. At the same time Shailaja catches the eye of Bhadranna (Gopichand), a gangster who also becomes infatuated with her. Venkat keeps bumping into Sailaja coincidentally every time it rains and they fall in love. Ranga Rao (Prakash Raj), Sailaja's dad, is a typical black sheep with all kinds of bad habits. Bhadranna approaches him with the marriage proposal and Ranga Rao jumps on that and immediately agrees. Later, a film producer approaches him with an offer for Shailaja to act in a movie. Ranga Rao thinks that acting in films would be more lucrative than marrying her off to Bhadranna. He first successfully creates clashes between lovers and convinces Shailaja to act in a movie and leaves with her to the city. Venkat also leaves for Vizag to his uncle's place.
