Plot
Chintakayala Ravi (Venkatesh) works in a bar named Cyber Wave in New York. He is a head waiter along with his three more friends as waiters. He is all in awe of software engineers coming to that bar as he has also reached the US with the dream of becoming a software pro. But, he became a waiter due to some unavoidable circumstances.
His mother Seshamamba (Lakshmi) tells everybody in her village in Andhra Pradesh that her son is big software engineer in America. Ravi is hit hard with a sentiment – not to cheat his mother. That's why he continues bluffing to her.
Seshamamba gets ready to conduct the marriage of her son with a village girl Lavanya (Mamta Mohandas). This girl in turn asks her childhood buddy Swetha (Anushka) in the US to enquire about Chintakayala Ravi. When Ravi arrives in the village for betrothal, he is subjected to humiliation.
