Story

Sudhir (Karthi) who work for Mahindra automobile showroom fall in love with TV anchor Priyanka (Hansika). He impresses business tycoon Varadarajulu (Nasser) when Priyanka was interviewing him. Varadarajulu invites Sudhir for a party which is not appreciated by his son in law Vijay Krishna (Ramki) who wish to own Varadarajulu's business establishments. 

Though Sudhir don't like to attend the party, he was forced to by his boss. However on return from the party Sudhir and his friend Parasuram(Premji Amaren) meets a beautiful girl Maya (Mandy Thakkar) at a biryani point and they goes along with her. The next day they will find themselves in shocking situations. 

To know what are those situations and how Sudhir comes out of it should be seen on silver screen.

Performance

Karthi impresses everyone as a play boy in the first half and as a caring person in the second half. Hansika looked cute in her new look after shedding weight.Madhumati looked attractive. Premji supported Karti and made viewers laugh with his comedy. 

Mandy Thakkar scorched on silver screen. Samapth as police offer looked serious in the role without any expressions. Others played their part accordingly.

Technical

Production values are quite good. Yuvan Shankar Raja's music is not that attractive and some of the songs acted as speed breakers.

Shashank Vennelakanti's dialogues are just monotonous. Editing could have been quite better. Director could have scripted climax in a better manner.

Analysis

Director Venkat Prabhu planned to mix the film with love ,sentiment and murder mystery. However with cliched screenplay and direction he failed to raise the interest levels of the viewers. 

Scenes comeout and go just like that with no gripping screenplay and Venkat actually set a bad example with his direction.

Final Talk

Biriyani lacks the spice that is required for success.
