Sakudumbam Shyamala 2010

Shyamala was not very strong in her studies and fails in her Pre-degree examination. Her family, especially her brother Shekaran loves her a lot. They arrange her marriage with an American guy, but he wants Shyamala to pass her Pre-Degree for the marriage to happen. Things become different when Shyamala falls in love with Vasudevan, a Malayalam tutor in the college, and marries him. Her family abandons her. Now Shyamala is the mother of a 25-year-old son Akash.

Shyamala’s biggest dream is her 25-year-old son’s marriage to the daughter of any rich American Malayali. Akash works as a video editor for a channel, while Vasudevan is an employee in the Collectorate, and Shyamala’s brother is the District Collector. She tries to win over her brother who is angry with her for her marriage to Vasudevan.

One day, Shyamala is beaten up by police on her way home from the market. The political party that was organizing the strike takes up this matter and gives it a lot of media coverage, making her the talk of the town. The party sees an opportunity and pushes her to contest in the assembly elections. Shyamala wins comfortably and becomes the revenue minister. Many rich people come forward to get their daughters married to Akash. Shyamala’s dreams shatter when Akash marries Nandana(/actor/bhama), a TV reporter. A battle begins at home between Shyamala and Nandana.

Meanwhile, Prakashan, Shyamala’s personal assistant, takes a bribe and gets Shyamala’s signature on some documents, sparking a major scandal. Shyamala is forced to resign from her ministerial post. When arrest seems likely, her brother, putting aside their old feud, reconciles with her and hides her from the police temporarily. Thus, brother and sister are reunited. Luck turns when Nandana had suspected Prakashan beforehand and had given him a pen with a hidden camera, which captures the events that prove Shyamala’s innocence. The mafia behind the scandal is arrested. Shyamala accepts Nandana as her daughter-in-law and reconciles with her family.
