Plot

Lingam (Sakthi) leads life in his own way. He, along with his set of friends, goes around town enjoying life. Lingam's father (Nassar) is against his ways and compares him with his elder brother Chandran (Adithya), who runs a software firm in Hyderabad and is caring towards the family. Lingam falls in love with Radhika (Ramya Nambeesan) and decides to make her sister Indira (Meera Vasudevan) enter wedlock with his brother. After their marriage, Chandran takes Indira to Hyderabad, but she comes across a startling truth that Chandran is a dreaded don in Andhra Pradesh and that he had hid this truth to his family. Lingam has to set things right. He promises Indira and Radhika that he would bring his brother back to right ways. A hindrance to his mission is Pettinaidu (Ravi Kale), who has a score to settle with Chandran. Does Lingam succeed in his mission or not forms the climax.

Reception

Sify wrote "On the whole the film is ham-fisted and does not deliver the punch required from a mass masala."[5] Behindwoods wrote "Aatta Nayagan might not be the best time pass entertainer you will stumble upon in movies but if you want to give the quintessential masala potboiler a chance once again, performed by an up and coming actor for once as opposed to the established ones, you might like the movie."[6]
