What the story is about

In Mumbai, mafia leader Ashok Deva is locked in an endless war with his rival Pawar. When Pawar’s men kill Deva’s wife Gauthami on her birthday, her last wish is that he leave the violence behind. Deva honours it: with his sisters Sirisha and Priya and his right-hand man Shiva, he moves to Gandhipuram, a village in East Godavari district, while Pawar believes him dead. The village is headed by Chakrapani, whose younger son Ramakrishna is a brawler who beats up wrongdoers and lives by his father’s principles, and whose elder son Anand, a medical student, is in love with Sirisha. When Anand and Sirisha elope to Mumbai, the search for them drags everyone back into the mafia’s line of fire.

Release and reception

A critic from The New Indian Express was unimpressed, calling the camerawork merely okay, the editing loose and the film “another average fare” to see “only if you have no alternative”. Wikipedia says it fared well at the box office, but cites no figure or outlet for that. The film was later dubbed into Tamil as Gandhipuram and into Hindi as Nafrat Ki Jung by Goldmines Telefilms.
