A teaser released by the makers last year showed that the film would revolve around Allari Naresh’s character, an absolute teetotaller. The teaser opened with a conversation between Satya and Allari Naresh.

Satya asks Allari Naresh, “You earn lakhs and lakhs. Yet you do not drink. Why?” Allari Naresh retorts, “What is the connection between earnings and drinking?”

Satya persists with his questions and asks Allari Naresh why he does not drink. Allari Naresh attempts to joke, saying, “I don’t drink because you won’t have a driver to drive you around if I do.”

Satya, determined to get a proper reply, tells Allari Naresh not to joke and to give him a serious answer.

Allari Naresh then replies, “If we drink, we will not be under our control. I do not like alcohol controlling me.”

At one point, the teaser shows Satya saying that he has now given up alcohol. He asks, “Whom should I throw the party for now?” Allari Naresh says he has invited his friends Secret Sharath, Sound Sunder, Ramesh, Suresh, Subash and Sanya, and that they will drink. Satya asks, “What if they don’t drink?”

Allari Naresh responds in a menacing tone, “Get them to drink.”

Directed by Meher Tej, the film features Allari Naresh, Ruhani Sharma, Niharika NM and Satya in the lead roles.

Apart from the lead actors, the film also features Girish Kulkarni, Harshavardhan, Chaitanya Krishna, Ravindra Vijay, Raghu Babu, Venkatesh Kakumanu, Kireeti, Hariteja, Surya Bhagavan Das and Flora Jacob in pivotal roles.
