She visits her home town after a long gap and she is attacked by the rival factionist. Munna (Vishnu Manchu) comes from nowhere and rescues her. Then he settles in her house as a worker and earns the love and trust of all Satyavati’s family members. He loves Satyavati. But Satyavati’s father wants to marry off to another guy. Just about when the marriage is going to happen, it is revealed that Satyavati has a lover (Venkat) from Europe and she uses Munna to help her escape to Europe. Just when Satyavati goes to Europe, it is revealed that Munna is none but a mafia kingpin from Bangkok called Saleem and Satyavati lover’s brother is none but a dreaded European don called OJo a.k.a. Ogiraja Jogayya (Mohan Babu). The rest of the story is all about how Saleem wins Satyavati over with his one-side love and his encounters with OJo.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

Manchu Vishnuvardhan Babu, had only one good film to his credit (Srinu Vytla's, 'Dhee') at that point of time. He happily signed on the dotted line and convinced his father, Manchu Mohan Babu to act in a special role in the film. YVS Chowdary also convinced the heartthrob of Telugu Cinema, Ileana to act in the film. Apparently, she didn't even read the script and signed on the dotted line, just because it's a YVS Chowdary's film who had introduced her to Telugu Cinema with 'Devdas'. Since, Mohan Babu still considers himself a 30 something, YVS Chowdary roped in another bombshell, Kaveri Jha to play a special role in the film.This is the brief history of how 'Saleem' took birth. But make no mistake, Anarkali's 'Saleem' would be wincing in his grave that YVS Chowdary has used his name and made a complete mockery of both the name 'Saleem' and its cult status.

"Vishnu looks at his best. He has shown good ease and excels in fights and dances. Production values of the film are grand. Direction is good in parts. The first half of the film is just good. Though the interval bang aroused some curiosity, the director succeeds to capitalize on it. YVS always has a trademark name associated with songs and he kept up his standards. The film consists of good fight sequences."

one more flop in the same old love+action genre.we don't understand where the 23cr went after watching the movie.there's also a bit of vulgarity in the movie.coming to vishnu he looked more stylish.he improved his performance in every field.this movie is a treat for ileana fans.she gives good amount of boost to the movie commercially.all other artists have done satisfactorily.director has chosen a reasonable point but failed in making things fresh,interesting & sensible.it is a very bad attempt by the producers to spend 23cr for such a script.on a whole the movie totally disappoints the one who expects freshness.
