What the story is about

Vinay is a college student who falls for Keerthi, a new arrival on campus, while clashing with Vamsi, a classmate with a nasty streak. The first half is mostly their love story, but Vinay also carries a deep grudge against Dharma Teja, a powerful man who steps in to rescue him from a gang of villains, and whom Vinay refuses to thank. Why Vinay hates him, and what binds the two men together, is revealed at the interval and drives a darker second half.
