Aaro Pranam is a 1997 Indian Telugu-language film directed by Veeru K and stars Vineeth and Soundarya.
The film is about a relationship between a man, Chanti, and a woman, Akankshaa, who is one year older than the man. How they convince their relatives to accept their relationship forms the rest of the story.[1] [2]
The film was shot at Annapurna Studios in Hyderabad.[3] The film was initially planned as a bilingual, with a Tamil title of Kadallikkalam Vaa, but eventually was not made.[4]
A critic opined that "With a talented director like Veeru as the story writer and music director the movie is splendid, but the story is a slight let down".[5]
The concept of a man dating an older woman is prevalent in the film Ye Maaya Chesave.
