But when they get locked up in a room by accident, many truths are revealed to fast forward their relationship to a more evolved stage. A groom lands up in the wrong house to meet his prospective bride. The film that actually made Vijay Deverakonda a darling was this sweet rom-com that starts off with a hilarious mix-up. Perfect for an easy watch, there’s loads to laugh at and even more to smile about. This standard issue ‘love-hate-love’ film directed by actor Srinivas Avasarala and starring Naga Shourya and Raashi Khanna, had its fair share of twists with an ‘uninvited guest’ and an unusual screenplay.
