Maayajaalam is a Telugu film released on 12 May 2006. This film is directed by S. V. Krishna Reddy. Later this film was dubbed into Hindi as Naya Shoorveer.

Plot

Vamsi (Srikanth) is a marriage broker. He takes care of everything related to wedding, from searching alliance to sending the bride to her in-law's house. His brother (Ravi Prakash) is a sincere police officer. A doctor (Shayaji Shinde) and owner of a super specialty hospital who trades with the limbs of patients fixes his daughter Swathi's (Deepa) with an M.P. Pradeep's (Pradeep Rawat) son Chatrapathi (Shafi). Vamsi is the matchmaker for that wedding. But Swathi receives Vamsi's photo by mistake and starts to consider Vamsi as her fiancé.

Pradeep attacks and seizes Vamsi's brother, who collects all the evidence against the former's felonies. Brahmanandam, Ali, Venu Madhav and Krishna Bhagavan, the victims of the M.P. and ruthless doctor, become demons.

How those spirits take vengeance on the doctor, how Vamsi could save his brother, and if Swathi marries Vamsi are the rest of the stuff to be watched on screen.

Reception

It received mixed reviews and was considered that Srikanth's role was "nothing much" and Poonam Kaur was good at being pretty in the film. Shafi's action was "an overreacting act but did a good job with comedy." Sayaji Shinde was a "messed up role." Ali, Venu Madhav, Krishna Bhagavan, and Brahmandam "only blend a little comedy in the film." Pradeep Rawat played as the antagonist and had a perfect act. It was said S.V. Krishna Reddy "needs to do a better job with making people act."

Box office
