Trama

Lakshmi and Rajshekar marry, each carrying past trauma. She had a cruel stepmother; he grew up poor. After a near-death experience deepens their bond, they build a successful life. Their well-raised children rebel as adults.

Lakshmi and Rajshekar meet, like each other and get married. They both bring emotional baggage to the marriage. Lakshmi's mother died in childhood and her wealthy father turned into an alcoholic. His second wife is a scheming, shrew who manipulates her husband and treats Lakshmi quite badly. Rajshekar's father raised his brother and him as a single parent, lavishing indulgence on his elder son, spoiling him. His father dies early, leaving him poor. Rajshekar is extremely strict with his wife and children, though he undoubtedly loves them. A near death experience strengthens their love for each other. Lakshmi transforms herself into a very loving, dutiful and caring housewife, while her husband builds his successful business. The children are brought up to be disciplined, obedient and loving. Friends always remark on the couple's parenting skills. Rebellion sets in among the now adult children, and the once loving and well knit family are estranged. What brings them all together again? Will the reunion bring them joy or grief?—MG Gopalan
