==Plot== | ==Plot== | ||
Abhiraam is the youngest son of London-based [[businessman]] Subrahmanyam, who quits his job and starts his own company, K.M.C Pipes and Canals and he completes his company's first project in Spain. He learns that his father is suffering from [[pancreatic cancer]] and has roughly a month or more to live. Subrahmanyam reveals his name as Ramesh Chandra Prasad, who was once London's richest [[entrepreneur]], who lost all his wealth because of a cunning man, Krishnamurty Kautilya, who made his worldwide business empire cheating Ramesh Chandra. He was then forced to change his name to Subrahmanyam and got rich again after years of work. | |||
Subrahmanyam requests his three sons to take revenge on his behalf. His first son lies to him that he has filed a [[lawsuit]] against Krishnamurty to pacify him, but Abhiraam ends up taking matters into his own hands. He sets 30 days to bring down Krishnamurty and hires three youngsters who are shown to love their fathers dearly. He targets Krishnamurty's daughter Divyanka aka Divya to reach him. Divya reappropriates Abhiraam's feelings after saving her from kidnapping and spending every last penny of their family bank balance to buy her a {{INRConvert|25|c}} worth of [[painting]]. | |||
Meanwhile, it turns out that the painting gifted to | Abhiram meets Krishnamurty at Divya's birthday party, but Krishnamurty turns out to be aware of Abhiraam's intentions. Subrahmanyam gets admitted to the hospital as his condition turns critical. Abhiraam's brothers break up with him after they come to know that Abhiraam wasted their property on the painting. Krishnamurty plants a bug in Abhiraam's lair, because of which he discovers their plans, and Divya too learns of Abhiraam's intentions and breaks up with him. Krishnamurty had grabbed the ''People Oil and Natural Gas'' project, which is one of the largest oil and gas bases in [[Europe]] belonging to a businessman Kapil Sinha in [[Spain]], to where he goes with Divya. | ||
Abhiraam follows them with his group but gets kidnapped by Divya's henchman. She does so as she wants to find his plans of ruining her father. Abhiraam regains Divya's love and also gets her to meet her mother in prison, whom she had not met since she was 4 years old, and revealed her mysterious dream. Her father had planted drugs in their bag during one of their travels, but the [[airport security]] find the bag with Divya's mother when Krishnamurty and Divya were in the washroom. Krishnamurty leaves his wife to save himself and his daughter. Divya begins to loathe Krishnamurty. Meanwhile, it turns out that the painting gifted to Krishnamurty had a camera in it and that Abhiraam was also aware of Krishnamurty's plans. | |||
Abhiraam accesses Krishnamurty's bank number, transferring {{INRConvert|35000|c}} to his [[bank account|family account]]. It is also revealed that the ''People Oil and Natural Gas'' land that Krishnamurty grabbed was no real gas land, and the gas there was given by tunnels planted by Abhiraam's KMC company: ''Krishnamurtyini Mosam Chese'' company (lit. 'Cheating Krishnamurty Company'). Kapil is revealed to be Satpal Singh, Subrahmanyam's ex-adviser and best friend, who had been supporting Abhiraam since the beginning. Krishnamurty becomes of the same condition as Ramesh Chandra Prasad and absconds and changes his identity to Subrahmanyam. Divya and her mother move in with Abhiraam's family, but sadly, Ramesh Chandra succumbs to his disease and dies. Abhiraam still does not cry as he thinks that his father will go the day he cries. | |||

[[Business Standard]] stated that NTR, particularly, needs to be lauded for not playing to the gallery and choosing to work with a director who isn't afraid to go against the tide. This is precisely why you want to appreciate Sukumar, who, by all means, could have safely made a regular commercial potboiler. But he didn't, and that's what differentiates him from other filmmakers.
