Plot

[edit]

Bharathi is the daughter of retired principal Appa Rao, with values and self-esteem. Lecturer Chandrashekar gets acquainted with her, and they fall in love. Bharathi's mother, Manikyamba, does not like this alliance because of its prestige. But Appa Rao convinces her and arranges the marriage of Chandrashekar and Bharathi. After the wedding, Manikyamba constantly criticizes Chandrashekar, so he leaves their house with Bharathi and they start living happily. Manikyamba does not like her daughter's middle-class life. She starts boasting about her son-in-law to the relatives. Chandrashekar gets hurt by this, so he does not want to return to her house, and Bharathi is sandwiched between her mother and husband. Gradually, ego clashes arise between the couple, and they lose tolerance for each other and separate with the intention to get a divorce. In the climax, they understand marriage is not about uniting two human beings but connecting two souls. Finally, the movie ends happily.
