His was an ideal happy family which many people envied. So long the children were young, they accepted the code of morals and discipline laid down by their father. But as they grew up, they broke those shackles stealthily. And that is how the peace and harmony was shattered in the family. Eldest son Ravi, befriended a dancers daughter. When confronted by his father for his immorality, he defied his father Laxmi could not tolerate her own son to point an accusing finger towards her husband. She turns him out of the house.

Shekhar had hardly got over this calamity, when he learns his wife, his life - Laxmi is buffering from Blood Cancer - the monolith in him comes crashing down. The person who had never accepted defeat in life; who was never deterred by any problems is sucked i. to a vacuum. He leaves no stone unturned, spares no effort how so ever big it was, to pull out his dear wife from the jaws of death. He swallows his own pride, throws his well-nourished principles of life to wind. He goes and begs his sons to return home, on their own terms if they felt that way, so that their presence may act as a catalytic agent to save their mother. 

Did the undaunted effort and unflinching devotion of Shekhar towards his wife, perform the miracle? 

Could the affection of her children drive away the YAMARAJ? 

These are some of few intricate webs woven tenderly, interestingly and dramatically in SADAA SUHAGAN.
