Sathyavan Savithiri story

Savithri is a newcomer lawyer juggling a high-stakes case with romance, marriage and family. When her boss takes the side of the wrongdoers in a case, she tries to change his mind, and ends up seeing who he really is.

The title nods to the classic Satyavan and Savitri legend, about a woman who outwits fate itself. Expect that idea to be played with, lightly.
