01 / THE STORY
A little about the film.
A kindhearted man, known as "Relangi mavayya" by his family, lives in the village of the same name. His middle-class family consists of his wife, mother, niece Seetha and three children: two sons and a daughter, Chinni. Peddodu is an introvert, who lives life on his own terms and is unsociable. Although Seetha wants to marry him, her love is apparently unrequited. Chinnodu is extrovert, who falls in love with Geetha, the daughter of Seetha's paternal uncle who is jealous of Chinnodu's father and denigrates his family's economic status. Although the family is close-knit, the brothers do not communicate well with each other.
