FCUK: Father Chitti Umaa Kaarthik 2021

Fhani Bhupal, [Jagapati Babu], is a Casanova and the head of a successful condom company, a man whose swagger masks a deep, almost familial loyalty to his son. His son, Karthik, [Ram Karthik], is a carefree flirt who moonlights as a kind of bridal groomer in the family’s circle, yet beneath his lighthearted facade runs a genuine tenderness that increasingly clashes with the world around him. Uma, [Ammu Abhirami], is a pediatrician from a traditional family, poised and principled, who becomes the focal point of a planned union with Pathuri Hanumantha Das, a Ph.D. who has returned from abroad and argues the match is sound for his own thesis, though he carries a sense of distance from real relationships.

The story pivots on a fateful meeting at a lively event, where Priyanka, Uma’s friend, dares to push boundaries and bets on luring men. Karthik becomes the target of the game, but the moment he learns the truth—that Priyanka’s ploy hides real feelings—he finds himself genuinely in love. A bold, three-day dating challenge follows, and Uma agrees to it as a test of trust, only to be left reeling when she misreads Karthik as a playboy and withdraws.

Meanwhile, a sudden turn of events pulls Karthik away from romance and toward family obligations. He learns that his father is in the hospital, and he rushes there, arriving disoriented and without proper clothes. In the confusion, a nurse brings a baby named Chitti to him, declaring that the child is the progeny of Fhani Bhupal, prompting a wave of mixed emotions as the elder Resa Bhupal steps back from the unfolding drama. On the professional front, Fhani Bhupal’s life intersects with Kalyani, a model who also works as a prostitute, during a shoot. There is tension with his men, but Fhani Bhupal’s blunt empathy and protective stance toward Kalyani’s pain gradually win her over, and their connection deepens in a single night shared in a small, crowded room.

A year after that night, tragedy strikes when Kalyani dies in an accident, leaving Chitti in the care of Fhani Bhupal. A delicate debate about responsibility follows, but the two men’ s bond with the child remains at the heart of their lives. Karthik’s affection for Chitti grows, and his sense of duty to the child becomes a stabilizing force in the family. One night, while Fhani Bhupal is away, Karthik’s careless behavior leads to Chitti’s dehydration and a frightening collapse. He hurries to the hospital, and Uma, witnessing the sincerity of his love for the child, sees a different side of him. Karthik confides the full truth to Uma, who initially mocks the claim but comes to understand after listening to the shared devotion.

The next day, Uma visits Karthik’s home with the intention of inviting him to marry, a prospect that leaves him somber and unsettled. A growing tension blooms within Uma as she discovers her own heart tilting toward Karthik, even as she contemplates the implications of their union. The couple agrees to move to Karthik’s village, where Uma presents a careful ruse: she frames Karthik as a widower friend while presenting Chitti as his daughter, hoping to gain acceptance from his wary family. The household’s initial suspicion is strong, but as they witness Karthik’s patient care and his gentle, steady presence with Chitti, they begin to soften. Yet the Ph.D., Pathuri Hanumantha Das, remains suspicious of Uma’s intentions, and the prospect of marriage appears to be in jeopardy.

Raghavaiah, Uma’s father, makes it his mission to unite Uma with Karthik, but the truth inevitably surfaces. He scolds Karthik’s family, rebukes Uma, and bans her from the upcoming union. A rift opens between father and son; everyone feels the strain of misgivings and miscommunications, and Fhani Bhupal steps in to try to help, bringing Chitti along to plead for reconciliation. In the tumult, Karthik turns to social media, posting a heartfelt video to locate his father and the child, which goes viral and triggers a round of media scrutiny. Just as the situation seems to flare out of control, Chitti records a candid moment that is shared with Uma’s family, revealing the pain, remorse, and longing on both sides. This accidental broadcast becomes a catalyst for a change of heart.

With the public eye fixed on them, Uma’s family re-evaluates their stance, moving toward acceptance just as Fhani Bhupal arrives with a vow to mend the rift. The emotional tension relaxes into a hopeful equilibrium, and the movie finds its final, celebratory note in the pending wedding of Karthik and Uma. Throughout, the film threads themes of responsibility, family duty, and the quiet power of steadfast love, showing how a blended clan can grow closer when honesty, patience, and care prevail.
