Plot

[edit]

The film begins at Hyderabad where a good Samaritan, Rajaji, introduces various strangers who have been gravely broken in life: an old couple, Raghuram & Lakshmi, neglected parents; Rama Krishna, a cancer patient; Chitila Chinna Rao a chit-fund company owner; Vinod, a love failure; Amala, tormented by a dowry issue; love birds Kiran & Sandhya whose elders disapproves their knit; and a boy Chandu, a failed student. Now, Rajaji is sitting on a bench at Tank Bund and acquaints with a film producer, Surya Prakash Reddy, who is attempting suicide as per bankruptcy. Rajaji carries him along with when he calls for all others with suicidal tendencies. Startlingly, he schemes a massive suicide on a bus trip to jump from the highest cliff of Srisailam and asks them to arrive by tomorrow afterthought. Ramakrishna revolts & accuses Rajaji of a murderer who says he will come to secure them from him.

That night, Rajaji accommodates Reddy due to his debtors' when he spins his past. Rajaji has doted his daughter Swapna with a shower of love since she lost her mother in childhood. Swapna made self-sacrifice in one-way love, which sheer collapses Rajaji, and that's why he is at peace with dying. Following this, he organizes a bus contacting a drunkard driver, Mallesh, who also feels like dying because of his shrew wife & family tasks. The sunrises, all of them reassemble and take off to ritual suicide, excluding Ramakrishna. Midway, Rajaji spots Ramakrishna as dead in an accident, which he hides from the remaining. Out of the blue, Ramakrishna scripts the total matter of massive suicide in his dairy, which bedlam's in media. Hence, the Govt appoints special officer ACP Sunil to bar the act. En route, Rajaji tactically schemes by providing insight to his mates about life's beauty, joy, happiness, sorrow, pain, and ups & downs. He also creates clashes between them to clarify, no matter how minor their troubles are. At a halt, they shatter knowing Ramakrishna's death in news, which unveils their secret, so the team moves forward, hiding from the Police.

Besides, Sunil succeeds in his investigation and gets up to Rajaji's residence. Whereat, he sights his plan, tracks the place & time, and rushes shuttling a helicopter. Until then, Rajaji & team land at the destination when the remaining request him to withdraw the plan as they are unwilling. Here, Rajaji announces he has made this journey with Mallesh's aid to transform them and comprehend life's worth by spreading its eminence. On their happy return, all at once, the bus break fails and goes out of control. Rajaji triumphs in shielding all, but tragically, he falls from the cliff. Fortuitously, Sunil, approaching the hill, detects Rajaji hanging on a tree and guards him where his mates are under jollity. At last, Rajaji again sits on his bench, restarting his game. Finally, the movie ends with a proclamation: Hardship swings like a passing cloud, but you cannot retrieve life once lost.[4]
