Story:
Krishna (portrayed by anchor Pradeep Machiraju) is a civil engineer in a Hyderabad-based construction company. His second project sends him to a remote village on the Andhra–Tamil Nadu border, where his company has secured a government order to construct toilets. His driver (played by Satya) accompanies him to the village without knowing about the peculiar customs awaiting him.
The village, steeped in strict traditions, doesn’t normally accept strangers — particularly men. But owing to the significance of the development project, the villagers permit Krishna inside on strict terms.
The village has an unusual setup — there are 60 young men and only one girl, Rajakumari(played by Deepika Pilli). Since her birth, the villagers believe she has brought immense luck to them. They treat her like a divine blessing and have already decided that she must marry one of the 60 boys born before her in the village. The chosen groom will also be declared the next village president.
Unexpectedly, Krishna and Rajakumari cross paths — and their first meeting takes a surprising turn when Krishna kisses her by accident. This moment sets the stage for a blossoming love story between the two.
As their secret romance deepens, the stakes rise. Will the villagers discover their love? If they do, how will they react? Can Krishna and Rajakumari challenge long-standing traditions and find a way to be together?
To know what happens next, how love and laughter unfold against the backdrop of superstition and tradition, watch Akkada Ammayi Ikkada Abbayi on the big screen!
Review:
Pradeep Machiraju gave a performance that suited the mood of his character. He tried to bring variations in his expressions and did a fair job overall. However, there’s still scope for him to improve his emotional range to make a stronger on-screen impact. Deepika Pilli looked appealing and did well for a newcomer. Her expressions were decent, and her on-screen chemistry with Pradeep worked nicely and added charm to the film.
Comedian Satya once again proved to be the scene-stealer with his impeccable comic timing and natural humor. He provided consistent laughter and was a big highlight. He, together with Brahmaji, Getup Srinu, Brahmanandam, and Vennela Kishore, was able to keep even the plodding parts of the film going with their jokes. Supporting actors like Motta Rajendran, Rohini, Jhansi, and Muralidhar Goud played according to their roles’ demands. And it was primarily the comedians who infused life in the account.
The film’s first half moves at a decent pace, with a fairly engaging screenplay despite a few minor dips. However, the second half loses momentum. Though the story has an interesting setup, the directors struggle to maintain that interest. A few emotional scenes land well, but the flow becomes sluggish. The love track between the leads feels overstretched, and some scenes don’t serve much purpose, disrupting the narrative flow.
The film features a village with 60 young men, but only two or three stand out with noticeable performances. The rest are sidelined with little to no significance. Regarding the music, a couple of songs in the second half feel like fillers and do not add any value. Instead of enhancing the movie, they end up slowing it down. While the interval is handled decently, the climax feels rushed and underwhelming, making it seem like a strong story idea was not fully utilized.
Radhan’s music works in favor of the film with melodious compositions that are visually well-executed. The background score suits the narrative and enhances the emotional tone in key scenes. Balreddy’s cinematography beautifully captures the rural landscape, making the visuals appealing. The production values by Monks & Monkeys are decent and serve the story’s setting well.
Directors Nithin and Bharath chose a good concept but struggled with consistent execution. The first half shows promise, but the second half fails to sustain that energy. With tighter editing and stronger writing, Akkada Ammayi Ikkada Abbayi could have been much more memorable.
Akkada Ammayi Ikkada Abbayi is a rural comedy with a light-hearted tone that manages to work in certain moments, especially in the first half due to its carefree humor and colorful performances. Pradeep Machiraju and Deepika Pilli have some really good chemistry and Satya steals every scene he is a part of purely using humor. While the film starts off well enough, it sort of sputters in the second half with a sluggish screenplay and boring climax. The script is not well done, but it does offer a few good laughs and some good-looking moments.
