Story :
Nischal, Akshay, Surya, Nithya and Madhu are a childhood friends. They are all very unhappy with their jobs and they share a common goal of setting up a good business. They quit and set about creating a software program that identifies and removes fake accounts from the popular social networking site Facebook. They succeeded in their design and submit a proposal to Facebook. Their proposal is accepted and just when everything seems to be going in their favor. Then one shocking twist…..Project designer dies.  Will they succeed? Answers are rest of the story….
Performance:
Surya, Nischal and Suresh performance is good. Their performance is neat and they have done justice to their characters. Rao Ramesh steals the thunder with a very good action in negative character.
Technicalities:
Basically as a musician R.P.Patnaik given good back ground score. He should have stayed away from singing the only song in the movie. His voice just does not suit the song at all. Editing is jerky and could have been better. Dialogues are ok and they hint at the importance of friends over parents (Sad).Cinematography is poor and visuals are not exciting enough.The director has no clarity on the technical side of the story, so there are glaring mistakes.
Analysis :
The first half is breezy and the suspense angle is maintained right till the end of the film. Comedy is ok in a few places. Direction of R.P.Patnaik is good in the first half as the story is set up pretty neatly. A few songs have been shot well.
The second half of the film is very bad and there are glaring mistakes in screenplay. The ‘Nigeria comedy’ scenes have not come out well and they test the patience of the viewers. There is no clarity in the message the director wanted to convey and the story keeps meandering between a psychological thriller and a murder mystery.There are silly mistakes in the concept of a software identifying fake accounts and the way it goes about doing it. Another silly point – Can a dead person’s Athma come online and chat with friends on Facebook?
Verdict :
Better stay on with your Facebook  rather watching Friendsbook.
