Synopsis

Mahalingam is the family's patriarch and founder of the traditional textiles showroom, Lakshmi Stores, but guilt-stricken with a past secret. His daughter-in-law, Mahalakshmi, nurtures the family and the close-knit staff with her selfless love. But she gets disowned by her husband Tiger Devaraj, when she seeks justice for Bhagyalakshmi, a kind-hearted young woman and earns the wrath of a vengeful Minister Shakunthala Devi, as well. Mahalakshmi is faced with an uphill task to save Lakshmi Stores and reunite with her family.

Fate takes a sharp turn when Ravi and Bhagyalakshmi get married secretly under inevitable consequences, after which they face a lot of problems from Shakuntala Devi and her family.

This story also revolves around how Ravi and Bhagyalakshmi, with the help of Mahalakshmi, pass the test of fate, face all their problems and reconcile with each other to live happily. At the end of the story, all is well.
