Plot

Muddulakshmi

Muddulakshmi, a sweet and dark-skinned woman, endures prejudice because of her skin colour. Doctor Dhruvant, a cardiac surgeon, falls in love with her and they marry. Her mother-in-law, Soundarya, first opposes her, but she is eventually accepted. Meanwhile, Dhruvant's coworker Sharvari adores him and attempts to separate Dhruvant and Muddulakshmi so that she can marry him. Muddulakshmi becomes pregnant shortly after, and Sharvari twists Dhruvant's mind by alleging that it is not his kid and that Muddulakshmi has had an affair. Dhruvant accepts this and begins to mistrust Muddulakshmi. He becomes enraged and confronts Muddulakshmi, leaving her and her family stunned and heartbroken. Dhruvant is sceptical of Muddulakshmi's claim that it is their child.

To maintain her dignity and self-respect, and for the sake of their relationship with the unborn kid. This causes Muddulakshmi to meet Dhruvant and his family, and Dhruvant and Muddulakshmi to frequently disagree. While Soundarya is determined to bring them together, Sharvari plans to keep them apart. After eight years, Shrishti and Drishti meet and become close, ignorant of their relationship. This causes Muddulakshmi to meet Dhruvant and his family, and Dhruvant and Muddulakshmi to frequently disagree. While Soundarya is determined to bring them together, Sharvari plans to keep them apart. The plot revolves around Muddulakshmi and Dhruvant reuniting after a DNA test reveals that Shrishti and Drishti are their offspring. But then they tear apart with a DNA test proven accordingly. Soundarya discloses that Dhristi is Sourya's twin sister, and that they are both Muddulakshmi and Dhruvant's offspring. Dhristi notices a lady fainting from thirst while driving. She assists the lady in getting home. She notices Sristhi's photo in the lady's residence and inquires about it, learning who she is. She believes she was adopted in this manner. The climax depicts Dhruvant, Muddu, Shristi, and Dhriti taking a journey to Chikmagalur where they have fun while Hima is fascinated by driving a car. Shristi begins driving aggressively on a hill, and Muddu reluctantly joins the car in the absence of Dhruvant and Dhristi. Dhristi begins to worry after the automobile loses its equilibrium, and Karthik boards the vehicle to save his daughter and wife. Even though the danger has passed, his automobile collides with a rock and goes off the cliff, killing Dhruvant, Muddu, and Dhristi, while Shristi, the sole survivor, loses consciousness.

Muddumanigalu

Drishti manages to survive the accident, but little did she know that Srishti also managed to survive with the help of a local couple. Growing up, Shrishti forgets her past due to accident trauma and fails to recognise Drishti and Soundarya's presence after several years. Needless to say, destiny brings them together when they marry brothers within the same family.
