Gorintaku

Ashok and his younger sister Lakshmi lose their parents when they are small, and with no one else to lean on, they become each other's whole world. When Lakshmi falls in love with Akash, she will marry him only with her brother's blessing, which Ashok gives gladly, and he marries Nandini on the same day. For a while both homes are happy. Then a woman claiming to be Nandini's aunt moves into Ashok's house, a run of misfortunes follows, and as Lakshmi's own family slides into money trouble, the bond between brother and sister is tested as never before. Rajasekhar plays Ashok and also his father, with Meera Jasmine as Lakshmi, Aarthi Agarwal as Nandini and Akash as Lakshmi's husband, while Nassar, Chandra Mohan and Suhasini Maniratnam appear in support. V. R. Prathap directs, and S. A. Rajkumar composes the music, keeping three of Hamsalekha's tunes from the original. A remake of the successful Kannada film Anna Thangi, it is an unashamedly sentimental family drama about sibling love and was a commercial success on its release in July 2008.
