Seeds of marital love have not yet flowered into sweet joys of wedlock when whims and egos of Archana and Sukesh clashing. Though a dutiful loving wife of a sweet husband, Archana is very much the daughter of her mother, who with all good intentions intervenes in the day to day life of the couple.Understanding leads to mis-understandings and the lovers start mis-interpreting each other’s sentiments.
