The film was produced by Sudhakar Cherukuri under the banner SLV Cinemas. The film stars Ravi Teja, Ashika Ranganath, and Dimple Hayathi.[3] It was released on 13 January 2026.
Ram, a winemaker from Hyderabad, makes a wine called "Anarkali" and submits it to United Spirits, a company based in Spain. However, the company rejects the wine despite its best quality. Ram takes it personally and visits Spain along with his PA, Leela, to convince the company's management, headed by Manasa Shetty. They learn that she has rejected the wine based on the advice of her PA, Vinda. Ram hides his true identity and introduces himself as Satya to Manasa. He convinces Manasa to accept Anarkali while also exposing Vinda, who cheats Manasa by collaborating with the rival company. Manasa becomes fond of Ram, and they engage in casual sex. Ram, however, hides the fact that he is already married to Balamani. They both part ways, and Ram returns to India.
Ram consults psychologist Kamalasan Naidu for therapy, who advises Ram that he is not at fault and he should forget Manasa. Meanwhile, Manasa arrives in Hyderabad for a wine festival and comes across Ram. She tells Ram that she'll be in Hyderabad for 2 weeks and asks Ram to give her company. Naidu advises Ram to manage Manasa for a few more days until she leaves India.
Ram with the help of Leela tries to hide about Manasa from Balamani. Despite his best attempts, Ram gets close to being busted by Balamani. Ram feels guilty, and tells Manasa about his marriage. Manasa throws Ram out furiously. Later, Manasa gets drunk at a pub where she meets Balamani. Balamani hears Manasa's story and brings her home. Balamani also informs Manasa's brother, Rakesh, about this. Rakesh has a patchy relation with Manasa and wants to win her goodwill by taking revenge on Manasa's boyfriend.
Ram is shocked to see Manasa at his home. Rakesh asks Manasa about her boyfriend but she refuses to disclose, asking him to stay away. Manasa gives an ultimatum to Ram, asking him to choose between her and Balamani before she leaves India. Manasa also threatens to reveal the truth to Balamani if he didn't choose her.
Rakesh inquires about Manasa's activities in India. He learns that Manasa met her boyfriend at a travel company owned by Ram’s brother-in-law, Sudha, and Ram has visited Spain earlier. Rakesh also brings Vinda to India to reveal the truth. Rakesh figures out that Ram is Manasa's boyfriend and reveals the same to Balamani. Balamani refuses to believe and backs Ram as an ideal husband.
While returning to home, Ram reveals to Balamani that he cheated on her with Manasa during his visit to Spain. Balamani is left heartbroken. The following day, Ram, Balamani, and Manasa meet, where Ram accepts his mistake and asks for forgiveness. When Balamani and Manasa refuse to forgive, Ram attempts to suicide. At the hospital, Manasa tells Balamani that she deserves Ram more than her, and they should reunite. Balamani accepts Ram's mistake and forgives him.
In the end, breaking the fourth wall, Ram advises the audience that inside every person, there are two voices: one is their own, which says, "It's wrong, don't do it" and the other is their alter ego's voice, which says, "It's okay, just do it, you only live once." He suggests listening to their own voice, which will lead to a happy life. Otherwise, listening to the alter ego might ruin it. He appeals to all the husbands out there to listen to their own voice.
