The trauma faced by the middle and lower middle class students in taking up higher education is the concept of director N.Om Prakash Rao. His theme in this film is that today educational seats are sold like properties. Professional courses are valued in money at the time of admission. It is kept for auction in the public place. The real talent is smudged. Money power the educational institutions emphasize is spoiling the atmosphere of education he focuses in his own breath taking style narration.
With all such malfunctioning we are not getting the right builders of the nation is also director intends to explain. The first half of the film is set in the College campus. In the second half the protagonist in the film Aditya takes up the cause of those who are affected.
