is a Kannada film which reflects the Indian educational system. It tells how bookish knowledge is not only essential, but a student needs to learn how to face the real world. It states that whether only front benchers are successful in their life and not the backbenchers, or it’s the opposite. It is a flick which showcases such kind of parents, who only believe that academic results are more important than the overall development of the child.
Plot: The story begins when Raju’s parents tell him only to focus on his studies and not to take part in any other activity.

All the teachers in the school used to give his example to the students. Raju’s dream in life was to work for a software company. But when he went to give an interview for a company, he was rejected even after having good grades. Then his father decided that he would teach his son how to face the real world and challenges the managers in the company. Will he be able to do so or all his efforts would go in vain? Thus this makes up for the story of the film.
