Transcription
Plot
The film begins in a village adjacent to the river Godavari where Sitaramayya, a wealthy landlord, holds high esteem. He leads a delightful life with his ideal wife, Janakamma, and son, Dr. Srinivasa Murthy / Vasu. Both father and son are best friends. Unfortunately, a rift arises since Vasu denies the match of his father's choice for his love interest, Sumathi, and Sitaramayya bows his head down. However, he shows his displeasure by refusing to speak to his son, which makes Vasu leave the country.
After 20 years, Seeta Vasu's daughter arrives to attend a wedding function at her grandfather's residence. Sitaramayya also continues his resentment of Seeta but inherently dotes on her. Her wit slowly wins everyone's hearts and resolves the conflict between Sitaramayya and his in-law Veerabhadraiah. Here, as a flabbergast, Dr. Vivekam, Vasu's friend, lands when it unveils that Seeta has hidden the death secret of her parents as her grandparents cannot tolerate it. Discerning the status quo, Vivakam remains calm and announces Vasu & Sumathi's arrival soon.
Now it's time for Sitaramayya's 60th birthday, Sashtipurthi, who eagerly waits for Vasu, but Sita conducts the ritual grandly without divulging the actuality. Soon after, tragically, Janakamma passes away due to delight when Sitaramayya is devastated by Vasu's absence at his mother's funeral and seeks Seeta to exit, which she does. After that, Seeta's memories recall Sitaramayya when he spots her diary, through which he affirms the fact and his son's last wish to immerse his ashes in the Godavari, his father. Forthwith, Sitaramayya collapses but quickly retrieves and rushes for Seeta. At last, Seeta fulfills her father's wish. Finally, the movie ends happily with a proclamation: That there is no end to Indian Family Structure.
