Time tested formula of teens love has been perfectly exploited. You smell the fragrance of love throughout the film. Music and situation comedy are highlights of Yadi Reddy`s fourth hit movie. Yester years super hit Maro Charitra (Kamalahasan & Sarita) successfully brought caste and regional differences as hurdle on the way for young lovers. Sampangi is all about friendship between innocent lovers. They go to the extent of sacrificing love for friendship between families of two different religions. Unlike in Bombay, Gaddar this film does not discuss any thing about religious differences. At the end, director gives his opinion in one sentence: a child enters into this world knowing no religion.

Shankarnaryana (Ranganath), Osman(Chalapathi Rao) are good friends from their childhood. Religious differences were never a constrain as both were always ready for any sacrifice for sake of friendship. Shankarnaryana comes with family to Hyderabad to attend the marriage of Osman`s elder daughter. Every thing goes well till Shankarnarayana falls ill. Doctors say it as kidneys failure. Befitting their true friendship Osman comes forward and donates kidney to save the life of his dear friend. During the marriage Shankarnarayan third son Abishek(Deepak) comes across Osman`s second daughter Rijwana (Kanchi Kaul). For both it`s love at first sight. Though they became close neither Abhishek nor Rijwana talk about this to each other. Meanwhile Abhishek listens to conversation between his father and Osman about their friendship. When his father recovers, he decided to sacrifice his love for the sake of their friendship. As an attempt to forget her, Abhishek deliberately maintains a distance. On the other front marriage proposals are there for Rijwana. Nikah is arranged with the bride, who is from Dubai. At this stage Abhishek realises that he cannot forget his love. Even then he resists revealing about his love for Rijwana. And the very sensitive Rijwana also silently suffers. The struggle between love and friendship begins. Osman gives the story a dramatic turn as he helps the young lovers to unite.

The film is all about love and sacrifice. Director Yadi Reddy and story writer Chalam has managed to weave out a tender love story. Though the lead pair in the picture are newcomers, they have performed well. While Ranganath, ChalapathiRao and Sangeetha steal the show. G.Krishna has composed some melodious music. For Yadi Reddy this is his fourth successful film.

Verdict: Clean entertainer
