Many of you would have heard about this movie, maybe even know that this is by now a huge hit. But most of you unaware of the goings on in Tollywood (Telugu filmdom) might not have even heard of such a movie. Well, that’s why we are here, to tell you that Happy Days is here.

It also shows how stupid we were to make mountains out of molehills with small arguments that could have been settled with just a smile.

The movie begins with a bunch of youngsters, total strangers to each other entering an engineering college and finishes with their
