What the story is about
Srinivas has just come back to India and joins a college in Hyderabad, where he falls for his classmate Srivalli. She is devoted to a childhood friend abroad, Vamsi: the two were the only survivors of a plane crash twenty years earlier. Srinivas and Srivalli eventually admit their feelings and a lavish engagement follows. Then Srilata turns up at the ceremony, a woman Srinivas met abroad a few years before, along with her young son Teja. How Srilata’s arrival unsettles the engagement is where the drama of the film lies.

Reviews and box office
Reviews were middling. Idlebrain rated it 3 out of 5 and fullhyd 7 out of 10, while Telugucinema.com called it “an average movie” with “nothing new”.
Wikipedia describes Yuvaraju as a box-office failure. The source it cites for that is a 2003 Idlebrain interview with director Krishna Vamsi rather than trade figures, and we have no collection numbers from a named outlet, so we do not quote any.
