Nenu Meeku Telusa…? 2008

Aditya is a man living with short-term memory loss after a brain-damaging accident that also claimed his father. To navigate each day, he relies on a self-made audio cassette that he sets up the night before and listens to every morning, a ritual that only his uncle and his doctor truly understand. He has a girlfriend, Madhumitha, and two rigid rules guide his life: never get drunk outside the safety of his home, and make sure he sleeps only in his own place. The morning tape is not just a routine—it’s the safeguard against forgetting what happened the day before.

One night at work, Aditya’s colleagues pressure him into a celebratory party where he ends up completely intoxicated. He wakes up in his own bedroom the next morning, but the crucial tape has been erased, and he has no clue who could have tampered with it. With his memory unclear, he begins piecing together what happened by relying on whatever is visible around him. As he steps out of his flat, the police appear, digging into a missing-car case. Aditya denies having filed any complaint, yet the car is found in the basement parking, and inside the trunk lies the body of his uncle. The discovery rocks the investigation, and he is arrested.

The courtroom reveals a harsh truth: Aditya’s memory condition is real, and the case remains unresolved. A determined police officer, Anjali, takes up the investigation on a personal level, appealing to the DGP for special attention. A flashback unfurls, showing Aditya and Anjali as college sweethearts whose relationship ended over a small misunderstanding. They briefly reconcile, but fate intervenes with a terrible accident that wipes out his memories of the past. When the present returns, Anjali’s pursuit of the truth stalls at every turn, leaving her with more questions than answers.

Faced with mounting doubt and a ticking clock, Aditya makes a bold and perilous choice: he will solve the mystery himself, but the only catch is that sleep would erase his memories again. He resolves not to sleep until the truth is uncovered, digging through fragments of his life to unearth clues. In the course of his search, he realizes that Anjali was more than just a memory from the past—she was his girlfriend.

A pivotal moment arrives when he reaches out to Madhumitha, and Anjali informs him that the case has reached a point where he is ready to reveal the killer at dawn. He clings to the hope that the culprit might be Anjali, waiting through the long night with steady willpower. But as the first light of day approaches, his vigilance falters—his eyes finally surrender to sleep just as the clock nears 7:00. When he wakes, both Anjali and Madhumitha stand with guns drawn, seeking help in the tense standoff.

In a rapid turn of instinct, he shoots Madhumitha, who dies on the spot. The younger brother of Madhumitha steps forward to unveil the wider conspiracy. He confesses that his sister aimed to seize control of the family company by turning Aditya into a pawn and the unwitting heir, while Madhumitha herself forged a romance to secure the deal. The plan backfired when Aditya’s uncle was killed and his body planted in Aditya’s car to mislead the police. The truth surfaces, and the case closes on a somber note.

The finale sees Aditya marrying Anjali, and she remains with him as a constant reminder of the past—a memory that greets him every morning, not through a tape, but through the presence of the person who stood by him when memory itself was at risk. The film closes on a note of uneasy balance between memory and truth, love and ambition, as the new life begins with a couple reconciled to face an uncertain future together.
