    Storyline

    Edit
    Sudeep is a high profile industrialist who gets whatever he wants and he has a special eye for beautiful women. To get them, he will not hesitate to do anything. That desire gets triggered when Sudeep sees Bindu, a micro artist who runs a non-profit organization. However, Bindu is loved by Nani who keeps following her everywhere. Though Bindu loves him, she doesn't express it to him and enjoys the attention. The story takes a turn when Sudeep discovers the feelings of Bindu for Nani and is unable to digest his defeat. He kills Nani. But Nani is born again as 'Eega'(fly) and he wants to take vengeance on Sudeep. —VishNu Teja

    • Alternate versions
      Was simultaneously shot in the Tamil language under the title "Naan Ee" (which translates to "I'm a Fly"). The cast is essentially the same in the two films, with the exception of the Drunk Robber, played by Thagubothu Ramesh in Eega and Santhanam in Naan Ee. In addition, Crazy Mohan, who wrote the Tamil dialogues for Naan Ee, has a cameo appearance in that film.

    Bow to Rajamouli
    Elements like the below are an icing on the cake : 1. Eega doing its best to prevent Sudeep from getting intimate with Bindu.

    2. Eega's teasing gestures to Sudeep, which is funny and also lends an aura of heroism around the fly.

    3. Eega's song where it challenges Sudeep is not only well-placed but also an integral part of the film.

    4. The character of Bindu being made a part of Eega's plot is superb. Kicha Sudeep's performance in Eega is getting rave reviews from various quarters. With his wonderful acting, the actor has won the hearts of the audience. However, his fan followers from Karnataka had one more reason to be thrilled
