What happens

Gamyam (transl. Destination) is a 2008 Indian Telugu-language road film written and directed by Krish in his directorial debut. The film stars Allari Naresh, Sharwanand, and Kamalinee Mukherjee. Loosely inspired by The Motorcycle Diaries (2004), the plot follows the quest of Abhiram (Sharwanand), a rich and arrogant man to seek his love, Janaki (Mukherjee). He is joined by Gaali Seenu (Naresh), a road-side thief in a journey that ultimately results in his self-discovery. The film received widespread critical acclaim and was a commercial success. It won four Nandi Awards, including Best Feature Film and Best Director, and four Filmfare Awards South, including Best Film and Best Director. In 2009, it was remade in Tamil as Kadhalna Summa Illai (transl. Love is not a joke), with Ravi Krishna replacing Naresh, in Kannada as Savaari (2009), and in Bengali as Dui Prithibi (2010).
