Set in Bangalore, the film explores the impact of corruption in the information technology world, the stock market and mutual funds scams and dot-com bubble on ordinary people.
"[3] The reviewer for Hindustan Times, Manjulaa S. Negi opined that the film was a "forthright tale about naive individuals who still believe.
They are the idealists whose dreams are shattered rather rudely and there is no recourse really, but to try and get back to their earlier lives with a bit more understanding and a lot more wiseness."
She felt that despite the subject's shortcomings, "it holds", while adding that the direction and sound departments needed improvement.
[4] Deepa Gumaste of Rediff.com commended the film for its "realistic depiction of educated urban youth and their aspirations" and the performances of the leading actors including Anant Nag, Suhasini Maniratnam, M. D. Pallavi and Balaji Manohar.
