Synopsis
=Season 1=
Nachiappan defies his rich, male chauvinist parents to marry the poorer Parvathi, and they raise their daughters Janani and Anjana in a joint family. Despite Nachiappan's controlling nature, he is wooed by a marriage proposal from business tycoon Aadhi Gunasekaran alias AGS for his brother Shakthivel. Unaware of the mistreatment of Gunasekaran's daughters-in-law Eshwari, Renuka, and Nandini & Janani Nachiappan falls for the lie that Janani will be appointed as MD in Gunasekaran's company. Eventually, Janani, a high achiever, marries Shakthivel, the youngest brother in the Aadhimuthu family.
As time passes, Janani learns the harsh reality of her in-laws' treatment of women. Her husband Shakthivel, haunted by childhood trauma, lacks the courage to confront his family. Janani's cousin Vasu warns her, but she proceeds with the marriage. Initially supportive, Shakthivel turns against Janani due to emotional manipulation from his elder brother Aadhi Gunasekaran alias AGS.
Janani's co-sisters Eshwari, Renuka, and Nandhini – are also educated women married to uneducated husbands in the Aadhimuthu family. The sisters face restrictions and are forced to be housekeepers by their controlling husbands – Gunasekaran Aadhimuthu alias AGS, Gnanasekaran Aadhimuthu, Kathirvel Aadhimuthu, and Shakthivel Aadhimuthu. The story unfolds as Janani faces the challenges within her new family, aiming to bring about positive change with the help of Pattammal, Gunasekaran's grandmother.
Janani, standing against male chauvinism, leaves the Aadhimuthu household after Shakthivel doubts her character. Pattamal, who holds a 40% share in Aadhimuthu properties and businesses, joins Janani against Gunasekaran for the rights of Janani and the other daughters-in-law.
Guided by advice from Pattammal, Janani returns to help her co-sisters gain independence. Shakthivel realizes his mistakes, and the story unfolds as Janani strives to empower herself and her co-sisters against the backdrop of family dynamics and societal challenges. How Janani will strengthen herself and liberate her co-sisters forms the crux of the story.
At the end of season 1, Aadhi Gunasekaran alias AGS is found guilty of all his crimes and is sentenced to lifetime imprisonment. Motivated by Pattammal, all the four daughters in law leave the Aadhimuthu household to pursue their dreams.
=Season 2=
After 6 Months The Story Continues from the End of Season 1. After the defeat of Aadhi Gunasekaran alias AGS, Janani and the rest of the women in the household leave to pursue their dreams. However, Gunasekaran, though defeated, continues to create obstacles for these women in subtle and disruptive ways.
A twist of fate changes the power play in the family when Gunasekaran transfers all his properties to his Third brother of Aadhimuthu family, Aadhimuthu Kadhirvel shocking everyone. The nature of that power play changes family dynamics and prepares the ground for Kadhirvel as the new antagonist. Now Kathirvel utilizing this newfound power, adopts an oppressive stance similar to Gunasekaran's and becomes obstacle for Janani and the other women in the family. How Janani and the rest of the women overcome the family dynamics and societal challenges forms the crux of the story.
