Shanthi Devi is introduced as the dazzling head of Devi Industries in Madras, celebrated as the number one young industrialist in India. Wealthy and unyielding, she rules her company with an iron fist, living with her father, Viswanathan, whom she replaced as CEO five years earlier, and with her loyal maid Kannamma, a family dynamic shaped by the loss of her mother two decades ago. Into this sharp, protected world returns Krishnan, a kind-hearted mechanic from Bombay, who travels home to Madras to see his gravely ill mother, a revelation that will soon pull him into Shanthi Devi’s orbit.
