| ==Plot==
| |
| An orphan boy wanders through [[Delhi]] looking for a job. When selling balloons, he sees a girl whose name is Amrita and gives her a free balloon. A few days later, during a storm, Amrita finds the boy getting drenched and gives him an umbrella. The umbrella is swept into a place nearby, where Amrita's parents are headed. The boy stops their car and tells them about the dangerous path ahead destroyed by the storm. As the boy has rescued Amrita's parents, they adopt him and name him "Athidhi".
| |
| | |
| One day, while driving Athidhi to a hostel, they are stopped by a psychopath teenager who mugs them and shoots the parents. In his rage, Athidhi lunges after the teen and manages to take the gun. Nearby, witnesses see Athidhi with a gun and Amrita's dead parents, and think that Athidhi has killed them. The police arrests Athidhi. Amrita also thinks that Athidhi killed her parents and starts to hate him.
| |
| | |
| 14 years later, Athidhi ([[Mahesh Babu]]) gets out of jail and goes in search of the psychopath murderer and the girl. In Delhi, local goons fear Athidhi, as he becomes a hurdle for their illegal operation. Once, he runs across a girl named Amrita ([[Amrita Rao]]) chased by stalkers from her college. Amrita and Athidhi meet many times. Amrita starts to like Athidhi but has to go back to Hyderabad before she can confess her love. When she tries to tell him that she is leaving, Athidhi sees some goons nearby, and he realizes that they’re after him. He continuously tells her to leave the place, but when she doesn’t, he slaps her and she runs away crying. Later, Athidhi goes to Amrita to apologize, but only finds her friend Madhavi ([[Maadhavi Latha]]). She tells him that Amrita just wanted to tell him that she is leaving. They go to the cemetery to look for her. Madhavi then explains that a boy adopted by Amrita's parents killed them when she was young, and Amrita goes to the cemetery to see their graves all the time. Athidhi realizes that she was the same girl that he met in his childhood and leaves for Hyderabad to find her.
| |
| | |
| When Athidhi also arrives in Hyderabad and decides to stay with Amrita's family, he learns that a mafia leader and kidnapper named Kaiser ([[Murali Sharma]]) is feared there. Later, Athidhi realizes that this was the psychopath teen who killed the girl's parents. Athidhi stops two attempts by Kaiser to murder Amrita.
| |
| | |
| Meanwhile, Officer Ajay (Murali Sharma) is trying to track down Kaiser. Ajay dies in an explosion in his house, which was planned by Kaiser. Athidhi figures out that Ajay's real name is Kaiser. Before Kaiser's house blew up, Kaiser managed to escape. When MLA Maccha Srinu ([[Kota Srinivasa Rao]]) realizes that Ajay and Kaiser are the same person, he succumbs to shock and dies from a heart attack. Athidhi manages to kill many of Kaiser's men. Kaiser kidnaps Amrita and her younger sister, and he kills the sister. Kaiser leads Amrita to a dungeon, calls Athidhi, and tells him that he will kill Amrita if Athidhi does not rescue her in 12 hours. Athidhi kidnaps Kaiser's brother ([[Ajay (actor)|Ajay]]) and agrees to trade him for Amrita. However, Kaiser kills his brother since, according to him, Kaiser should not have any weakness. Kaiser then reveals that he killed Amrita, to which Athidhi kills all Kaiser’s henchmen in rage. He beats Kaiser, and Kaiser then reveals that he didn’t kill Amrita, but she is on the verge of death. Amrita is severely cut and stuck in a certain air tank, but is rescued, and Kaiser is killed. Athidhi and Amrita unite, and she realizes that he was not the one who killed her parents.
