A police officer in the special branch, Bhaskar Chenmai, alias Bachi (Jagapathi Babu) one day receives a boy Habibi (Master Teja) from a courier from Dubai. Claiming that his mother had told him that Jagapati Babu is his father, the boy starts addressing him as father. The uncomfortable Bachi tries various methods to get rid of the boy, but his ways serve only to get him drawn towards the boy and become friends ultimately. Meanwhile, Bachi is the chief security officer for Tatineni Koteswara Rao (Prakash Raj), the Rs 50-crore winner of the Paris lottery. But Bachi's search for the boy continues and he manages to nail the father by his name, Bachi (Pruthvi Raj) and arrests him. But is he the real villain of the piece?
Directed by Puri Jagannadh, Bachi leans on a strong ensemble — Jagapati Babu, Neelambari, Prakash Raj — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about action titles of 2000.
