Plot
The film begins at Vaikuntha, where Vishnu and Lakshmi avidly observe a fickle human. Gopi is a bachelor who rejects hundreds of matches as they fail to meet his expectations, which feds up his parents. Once, his bestie Balaraju requests to accompany him as he will fix his espousal where Gopi falls for Lakshmi, the bride. So, Gopi artifices to get Balaraju to turn down the proposal and engage himself by playing on Lakshmi. Just a day before the wedding, Gopi acquires a fine job in Bangalore, and he proceeds. Soon after his arrival, his new boss offers his daughter's hand to him when fitful Gopi accepts it. However, he gets a jerk after viewing his fatty daughter. Immediately, he changes his mind and tricks himself into making the situation in his favor.
Parallelly, serious bomb detonates are conducted in Bangalore by a terrorist organization headed by Abbu Gulam and a special officer, Balavinder Cheda, in charge of the operation of capturing the terrorists. Gopi takes the road to be on time. On the way, he acquaints a glorious Priya who pleads lift. Here, Gopi's mind again vacillates and loves her. Forthwith, he dumbs Lakshmi to marry Priya. He is incognizant of her true identity, i.e., a dreaded terrorist, Monica Bedi, the girlfriend of Abbu Gulam. Priya / Monica Bedi uses to operate Gopi as a human bomb; therefore, she pretends to obtain his proposal. Monica Bedi/Priya also kicks the asses of the Hotel staff because the hotel's owner identified her from the news, and the same to Gopi's friend too. They are incredibly muscular, but she sweeps the floor with them like they are silly children.
Gopi has notified his parents of his intention and falls short of the nuptial. Listening to it, his parents collapse and take a step to knot Lakshmi with their nephew Vamsi. Meanwhile, Balavinder Cheda apprehends Abbu Gulam; he detects Monica's whereabouts through him. He intervenes Monica exactly before entering hyderabad.Balavinder cheda trashes her down and rescue Gopi from her clutches. Freed Gopi lands at the venue to marry Lakshmi and is stunned to spot Vamsi as the bridegroom. Once again, he attempts to craft but greets everyone's loathing. At that point, Vamsi implies to him that people with a flighty mindset never prosper. After soul-searching, Gopi seeks an apology, and all promptly forgive him. At last, when Gopi is about to knot with Lakshmi, Goddess Lakshmi appears before him in human form. Finally, the movie ends with a mesmerized Gopi's approach toward Goddess Lakshmi to tie her when she proves to Lord Vishnu that volatile people never change.

Reception
A critic from Nowrunning wrote that "The ribaldry that is needlessly included in the end of the movie "Gopi - Goda meda pilli" is something that is completely unnecessary and offends the viewer. This part takes away all the good work done in the entire movie". A critic from Full Hyderabad wrote that "Gopi is just a low-budget flick with a few decent lines here and there - that doesn't mean you should watch it".
