Ami Tumi is loosely based on Richard Brinsley Sheridan's comic opera The Duenna. There is an old movie called Ananda nilayam (1971) directed by B.S. Narayana which is also based on the same literature.

Plot

Ami Thumi is a situation comedy about two couples in love: Maya (Aditi Myakal) and Vijay (Avasarala Srinivas) and his sister Deepika (Eesha Rebba) and Ananth (Adivi Sesh). Deepika's father Janardhan (Tanikella Bharani) objects to her relationship and is also a business rival of Maya's father. While Maya opts to become a nun, Janardhan arranges Deepika's marriage with another man, Sri Chilipi (Vennela Kishore); however, Deepika tricks Sri Chillipi into helping them. The movie follows his plans to help them change Janardhan's mind.

Reception

Reviewing the film for Firstpost, Hemanth Kumar appreciated the humour and performances and wrote, "Ami Thumi is a screwball comedy, there’s plenty of confusion and plenty of chasing around, but more than anything, it has a tone which has long been missing in Telugu cinema." Karthik Keramalu of The News Minute, also echoed the same, calling it "screwball comedy at its finest." Keramalu praised Kishore in particular, adding "it’s Kishore who enjoys the largest share of the pie. He’ll win a great number of awards next year for his zany character, Sri Chilipi." The Hindu critic Sangeetha Devi Dundoo also called Kishore "the star of the film," stating that making Sri Chilipi the pivotal character in this drama is where the surprise lied in. Reviewing other performances, Suresh Kaviryani of Deccan Chronicle wrote: " Adivi Sesh and Avasarala are the lead actors, but Adivi Sesh gets far more exposure; Avasarala’s role is like a cameo. Eesha is good and her Telangana accent authentic. Thanikella Bharani gets another important role and does well, experienced actor that he is."

Ch Sushil Rao of The Times of India felt that the film fared average with loose dots of laughter. Rao was critical of the technical aspects, writing, "There’s nothing much to talk about the locales or cinematography since most of it is shot indoors adhering to the demands of the screenplay. The music too is average and usually seats in the backseat throughout the story. " A reviewer from Sify wrote: "Ami Thumi doesn't have much story line but does generate some laughs."
