Story: Gopal Rao, a middle-class man who runs a store selling God's idols, is an atheist whose life turns topsy-turvy when an earthquake destroys his store. Soon, he shocks everyone by filing a lawsuit against God to get the compensation from an insurance firm.
Movie Review: A film like Gopala Gopala, which puts logic ahead of one's faith in God, could have been a double edged sword but it has been dealt with an undeniable efficacy to prove the existence of God.
Gopal Rao (Venkatesh), a middle-class man who runs a store selling God's idols, is an atheist and he keeps trying to convince his wife Meenakshi (Shriya Saran) to not blindly follow every ritual in the book to impress the Gods. One day, his life turns topsy-turvy when an earthquake destroys his store and soon, he comes to know that he won't get any money from the insurance firm because it was an act of God that destroyed his store. Then, he shocks everyone by filing a lawsuit against God and the rest of the story is about how he defies all odds, with some help from God himself, and wins the case.
Gopala Gopala begins as a story about an atheist, who seems to offend a lot of people around him, and in the end, the film drives home the point that when you help others, it is as good as worshipping God himself. And in doing so, the film churns out plenty of thought provoking questions which force you to look for answers within yourself and this is perhaps the film's biggest achievement.
