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.
