Tatamma Kala Story

The film begins in a village with Ravamma, an indomitable woman whose husband, Musalaiah, turns into a wanderer. So, Ravamma safeguards their property and rears her grandson Ramaiah, who lost his parents in childhood. Time passes, Ramaiah spices Sita, and they are blessed with five children. Tragically, the family becomes a victim of the land ceiling act. Hence, distressed Ramayya migrates to the city, where he obtains a job, but Ravamma spurns the decision and leaves him behind. Years rolled by, and the children grew up with different mentalities; the eldest, Govindu, knits an intercaste girl, Saru, at his in-law’s house. The second, Hariram, a hippie, and the third, Venkatesam, a mechanic, is clutched by a dancer, Mala, and the daughter, Rama, becomes a scapegoat for the modern lifestyle.

Times get worse, Ramayya is penalized for Hariram’s crime, and Sita commits suicide. In a wreck, the only child left, Balakrishna, a genial, is left alone and proceeds to his great-grandmother. By then, Ravamma is 97 years old, and spotting him is delightful. Balakrishna is aware that the village is suffering from a drought. Thus, he triumphs in acquiring a green revolution utilizing modern techniques, for which he is honored with the Krishi Pandit award from the Govt of India, which he bestows on his great-grandmother. Presently, Ravamma is so smug as her great-grandson fulfilled the dream for which she is striving. At last, the police catch Hariram and acquit Ramaiah as non-guilty, who back, along with the remaining family, following Musalaiah. Finally, the movie ends on a happy note with the family’s reunion.
