118 min
Varalakshmi and Laxman are a young married couple from the heartlands whose life together starts to strain under very different ideas about money and ambition. Varalakshmi is a grounded homemaker who wants the security of steady income, while her jobless husband keeps chasing entrepreneurial dreams through risky shortcuts. As bills, pride, and expectation press in, their marriage becomes a tug-of-war between patience and hustle, stability and gamble. The story centers that domestic divide, keeping its focus on how economic pressure reshapes love, trust, and the future they imagine for themselves.
