Plot

[edit]

The narrative opens with a mother's love and her daughter in a village where she experiences challenges and numerous problems. Unfortunate occurrences lead Chellamma, a biological daughter of Mahendran and daughter, to Lakshmi's doorway with no knowledge of their prior connection throughout their youth. What she went through it is how she attempts to get over it.

Chellamma, a dedicated mother who works as a maid in Lakshmi's home, relates the tale of the mother and daughter's love and affection. She was married, but her painful marriage with her spouse resulted in a divorce. Her husband remarried, continuing his plan to repeatedly hurt Chellama while doing so. Chellama is a maid that works in Mahendran and Lakshmi's home. She is regarded as one of the most devoted employees there, and they assist her in paying for her daughter's schooling. Her husband once threatened to never traumatise her if she removed the mangle sutra. He used Megha, a fictitious daughter of Mahendran and Lakshmi, to irritate her and manipulate her to sever their ties with the Chellama family, among other things. Where Chellama also responded, stating that if you damage me, that will also remain as the strength of God's light.

Chellamma is respected by Lakshmi and Mahendran, who also regard her as a daughter. The protagonist then encounters Margatham's son Siddharth. Despite having a large group of coworkers and treating Chellama as his everything, he likes her but is unable to show his affection. Megha, meantime, is a fraudulent daughter who enjoys hurting others and dislikes it when things are going well. She misuses everything and ruins every connection. Soon after, Chellamma's was established, where Mahendran and Lakshmi respect her as their biological daughter. Margeathem and Chellama's ex-husband irritate Megha. The novel then goes on to reveal Margetheem's loss of Siddu and Chellama's romantic connection.
