## Plot

The narrative unfolds with Muthazhagu, a resilient and hardworking young woman, laboring in the fields to provide money for her family, which includes her father Thamizh, mother Sornam, and sister Shenbagam. Despite her efforts, Muthazhagu carries the burden of a broken marriage, causing her to sacrifice her own happiness for the sake of her family's well-being.
Amidst her struggles, Muthazhagu encounters Pechiammal, a benevolent landlord from a neighboring village. Moved by Mutuazhagu's plight, Pechiammal takes it upon herself to arrange Muthazhagu's marriage, offering hope for a brighter future.
However, the arrival of Bhoominathan, Pechiammal's son, disrupts the tranquility of Muthazhagu's life. Bhoominathan, a successful MBA graduate, returns home with unresolved resentment towards Mutuazhagu. Their initial interactions are marked by tension and conflict, fueled by Bhoominathan's lingering animosity.
Despite their rocky start, Bhoominathan and Muthazhagu's relationship undergoes a gradual transformation. Over time, they develop a deep bond characterized by mutual respect, understanding, and eventually, love. Their journey together is not without challenges, but they navigate through them, emerging stronger as a couple.
Just as Bhoominathan and Muthazhagu find stability in their relationship, a new twist emerges with the sudden reappearance of Anjali, Bhoominathan's previous wife from his college days. Anjali's arrival casts doubt and confusion, as she claims that Bhoominathan still harbors feelings for her.
This revelation shocks Muthazhagu, throwing her into a whirlwind of emotions. Conflicted and heartbroken, she grapples with the uncertainty of her marriage and her place in Bhoominathan's life. Meanwhile, Pechiammal, ever the pillar of strength and wisdom, extends her understanding and support, determined to navigate through the complexities of the situation.
As tensions rise and emotions run high, Pechiammal makes a compassionate decision to accept both Anjali and Muthazhagu as her daughters-in-law, embracing the challenges of their intertwined destinies with grace and resilience.
