Plot
edit"Gully Gang" is a coming-of-age drama that explores the tumultuous journey of a young boy named Srinu, hailing from the village of Peddampet. The movie begins with a gripping scene of Srinu contemplating his life's end in front of an approaching train, setting the stage for a narrative that delves into the complexities of love, friendship, and self-discovery.
Srinu, part of the energetic "9 Gang" with his friends, is initially hesitant about the idea of love. Encouraged by his friend Malli, he seeks guidance from a love expert named 'Prem ji.' However, his attempts at wooing three girls end in a violent confrontation, leading him to take up karate for revenge. This decision results in an unexpected twist when Srinu accidentally kicks his karate master, leading to further challenges.
Despite initial setbacks, Srinu eventually falls for a girl named Sandhya. However, his attempt to express his feelings takes an unexpected turn when Sandhya addresses him as a brother. Devastated but determined, Srinu tries to feign sadness to win her over but is interrupted by news of a girl visiting his house. This time, Srinu's hopes are shattered as the girl, Sampangi, falls in love with his brother.
As disappointments mount, Srinu transforms into an angry young man and gains notoriety as the rowdy of his college. The plot thickens as new characters, including Murali and Kumari, enter the scene. Srinu's protective instincts emerge when Gopal harasses Kumari, leading to a confrontation that further complicates the relationships. Kumari's father misunderstands the situation, causing her to leave college.
Srinu's attempts to rescue Kumari from her engagement with Murali take an unexpected turn when a mysterious biker enters the picture. The revelation that Kumari joins the biker leaves both Srinu and Murali in shock. Faced with the numerous failures in love and life, Srinu reaches a breaking point, contemplating suicide by standing in front of a speeding train.
The movie poignantly concludes with the message that "Love is a Gift," emphasizing the unpredictable nature of love and life's journey, with Srinu's struggles serving as a powerful backdrop for this heartfelt exploration of human emotions.
