It turns out that Anand is actually Abhimanyu, the guy who is supposed to marry Sasirekha before she decides to elope. The only twist that is there comes before the interval. (phew…the same Tollywood exercise over and over again.) Towards the end Anand brings the warring parents to their feet and once agian proves how evolved and superior the youngsters are. Meanwhile, we are also shown the parents on either side warring with each other and mouthing profanities over the phone, in the hospital, and in a court of law. Yes, of course, in this entire process the two fall in love and get married.

She bumps in to a guy who calls himself Anand (Tarun) who continues to shadow her till the end imparting several functions in the process: protecting her from men who are out-to-pounce-at her, a lorry driver who wants to rape her, helps her find the theives who stole her jewelry, arranges for her to go to Hyderabad by bus/taxi, counsels her, consoles her, takes her for a bike camping trip with his friends to Nagarjuna sagar from Vijayawada, and even finally her to the hospital when she is injured in a conflict between citizens protesting inflation and the police.

Sasirekha (Genelia) runs away from the house in full bridal get-up as she doesn’t want this marriage being forced upon her overnight to a guy whose father is demanding several laks and paddy fields for dowry. Far from it, Sasirekha Parinayam is a totally pointless and useless effort with absolutely no, new or old, story to tell. So when a Krishna Vamsi, for whatever he is worth now as a creative director, film with hearthrob Genelia is releasing showing green paddy fields and traditional posters is coming on January 1st, you expect that the makers of the film have planned a proper family film with good story as a new year gift. However disasterous the year gone by may have been, one always hopes that what is coming in the new year will bring cheer and joy.
