Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for spy-story fans and politics junkies. Nobody is quite who they seem. Power and ambition drive every scene.
The mood
Light and funny.
The pace
Grand in scale, at 2 hr 41 min.
What might put you off
  • It's long: 2 hr 41 min.
  • It's in Telugu, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if you prefer quiet, talky stories.

Ghana, a jobless young man who left military to bring justice to the society, whiling away timing beating up goons. Life takes a turn when he brushes the shady Vairam Dhanush the wrong way.
