Plot
Pencil Parthasarathy (Nani) is a small time crime novel writer who watches hit english movies and rewrites their stories as local telugu novels. Meanwhile a great robbery takes place in the city where 300 crores of money is stolen by 5 individuals. As soon as the robbery is finished, the 5 are found murdered and the money stolen.
5 bereaved women (1 aged woman, 1 middle aged woman, 1 young woman, 1 teen and a small child) who lost their loved ones (the 5 dead robbers) come together and try to find someone who would help them seek revenge against the death of their loved ones. Pencil at first refuses to help but sensing a good (and probably his first) original story, agrees to help them.
After a few hilarious twists and turns, the rag tag group finally narrows down on their lead suspect; Dev.
Dev was a small time ambulance driver turned F1 Racer. As an ambulance driver, Dev never lost a patient due to his skillfull and prompt driving of patients to the hospitals. But in order to become a successful race car driver, he needed money. In order to get the money, he joined a group of cancer patients (the original five) who were planning on a robbery to set aside money for their loved ones (the 5 women). After the robbery, Dev kills all the men and steals the money and becomes a successful race car driver.
The rest of the movie revolves around how the Gang can bring Dev to justice and kill him for revenge with Pencil as their Gang Leader.
