All of a sudden, the story takes a sudden turn when Rishi comes to know that his task is to trap Vaishali (Deeksha Seth), another student of the same college, who is also the daughter of under world mafia don, Kittoo Bhai (Prakash Raj). Further it leads to a triangular love story between Rishi, Vinamra and Vyshali. Can Rishi win the battle with Kittoo Bhai? What happens to his love story? Whom does he marry at the end? Get the answers in 'Mirapakai' theater.

Artists Performance:

Ravi Teja:
This time Ravi Teja shouldered the task of exhibiting hilarious performance throughout the movie, without much support from other comedians. As usually he did his part extremely well. In his previous movie 'Don Seenu', he looked as if he was aged. But this time he took special care on his physical fitness. His dances are awesome in the first song 'Mirapakai' with his Amitabh kind of style and steps.

Richa Gangopadhyay: She was bubbly and beautiful. Her looks in some angles remind us the veteran heroine Meena. She was so hot in the song 'Gadi talupulu'. Glamour-wise and performance-wise she was okay.

Deeksha Seth: She performed the role of a rash and ultramodern girl. She was restricted to show her glamour and did her job well.

Others: Sunil acted as a Brahmin boy, but he could not generate much comedy. Brahmaji was given the role of a friend and colleague of Ravi Teja. Kota, Ajay and others did their parts well.

Technical Department:
Music:
Music by Thaman S. is average to ears and good to picturization. Background score was good. Picturizaion of songs like 'Mirapakai', 'Gadi Talupulu', and 'Dinak din' songs was good. Maybe Thaman should concentrate on melody as well along with fast beats.

Story, Screenplay, Dialogues and Direction: Director Harish Shankar has come up with triangular love story mixed with entertainment and some action scenes. His screenplay was fast and okay in the first half with good number of laughs from Ravi Teja and some good songs. In the second half, he dragged the story a bit with routine and stereo type of triangular love story. He should have taken more care in the presentation of Prakash Raj's role. On a whole, he was succeeded in giving a good entertainer.

Sidelights:

1. Is it that easier to go as a Hindi lecturer to a corporate college from police department?

2. When Ravi Teja rides a bike with Deeksha Seth, Chiranjeevi's 'Navvindi malle chendu' song is played in the background.

3. Richa proved that she is capable to show glamour as well as performance.

4. 'Mass Raja' Ravi Teja's name was shown in titles as 'Mass Maharaj Ravi Teja'.

5. Colors Swathi was seen in a small role.

Pros:

  • Ravi Teja's hilarious performance.
  • Non-stop comedy with some gaps in the second half.
  • Richa and Deeksha Seth's glamour.

Cons:

  • No proper comedy by other comedians.
  • Music should have been better.
