Of late, we have been seeing how school and college students are tragically ending their precious lives due to excessive pressure to excel in studies and get top ranks for a ‘successful future’. How this life transforming incident motivates First Rank Raju to explore the world and discover himself eventually is the main crux of the story. The conflict in First Rank Raju’s life arises when he fails to secure a plum job at a top MNC despite being a brilliant student and successfully acing the interview. However, First Rank Raju’s studious mindset makes him too naive and nerdy to even do simple things in life, like buying vegetables in the market or reciprocating to a beautiful classmate’s (Kashish Vohra) love proposal. Living up to his parents’ aspirations, Raju tops all the classes and attains the title ‘First Rank’ in the process.

The film has hit screens today after generating a good buzz. The film stars young hero Chethan Maddineni, Kashish Vohra and several senior and rising character artistes and comedians.
