Narayana Murthy (Sathyaraj) is an honest government employee whose son Suryanarayana Murthy (Ram Pothineni) loves him in such a way that he is ready to die or kill anyone. One day, when he was about to meet with an accident, Gaja (Murali Sharma) a gangster protects him, and the two become friends. One day, Minister Rajappa (Rao Ramesh) blackmails Narayana Murthy to get approval for a building which was illegally constructed. Rajappa orders his right-hand man Gaja to kill Narayana Murthy's family. The rest of the story follows Surya as he tries to protect his family from Rajappa.
A critic from The Hindu wrote that "Sathyaraj and Rao Ramesh, who steals the show yet again, are the film’s saving grace".[3] Pranitha Jonnalagedda of The Times of India said that "The film is predictable at places and endearing at times. But on the whole, it feels like watching paint dry. Here’s a film which has its heart in the right place but the beats aren’t quite right".[4] Jeevi of Idlebrain.com opined that "On a whole, Hyper is a film made for the masses".[1]
