==Plot==
The story begins with Surya ([[Ravi Teja]]), who owns a gym center and has a good friend named Sriram ([[Srikanth (Tamil actor, born 1979)|Sriram]]). Surya is in love with Sriram’s sister Meghna ([[Deeksha Seth]]), and after some cat-and-mouse games, she also falls in love with Surya. After a while, Sriram goes to [[Saudi Arabia]] for a job and falls in love with Vaishnavi ([[Bhavana (Malayalam actress)|Bhavana]]). The story takes a turn when Surya also goes to Saudi Arabia to celebrate Sriram's birthday and is shocked when the police arrests Sriram on charges of murdering Vaishnavi. He is sentenced to death. The only thing Surya can do is get the signature from Vaishnavi’s parents to acquit Sriram, but Vaishnavi's father is Raja Goud ([[Pradeep Rawat (actor)|Pradeep Rawat]]), the bad guy whom Surya has been fighting all along. What happens from there forms the rest of the story.

===Critical reception===
Radhika Rajamani from ''Rediff'', while reviewing the film Telugu film ''Nippu'', has given 2/5 stars and feels that the film is formulaic and hence, disappoints.
Producer YVS Chowdary and director Gunasekhar team up with Ravi Teja in Nippu (Fire). One knows what to expect from a Ravi Teja film, and Gunasekhar provides the usual commercial ingredients for the mass hero.
There's enough action, half-a-dozen songs (two of them shot in picturesque Turkey) and a middle-class family set-up.
However, instead of scorching the screen, the fire seems to have been extinguished by the director himself with his cold and lacklustre screenplay. Even Ravi Teja's presence doesn't seem to prop up the film that has a wafer-thin story.<ref>https://www.rediff.com/movies/review/south-review-nippu-is-a-letdown/20120217.htm</ref>
