Avalude Ravukal

In the cramped alleys of a bustling city, Raji carries the weight of a tragedy that stole her parents and thrust her into adulthood. Determined to give her younger brother Sudhakaran a chance at education, she takes on work that society shuns, navigating the thin line between survival and the relentless stigma that follows her. The slum’s narrow streets pulse with the daily grind, and within its shadows she finds both the harsh reality of her chosen path and fleeting moments of unexpected kindness.

Living alongside the ever‑watchful cycle‑rickshaw driver who doubles as her reluctant protector, Raji’s world is a mosaic of rough‑edges and fragile hopes. The neighborhood’s residents—each marked by their own hardships—form a backdrop of whispered judgments and quiet solidarity, underscoring the film’s raw, unvarnished tone. Yet amid the grit, the promise of a different future flickers, anchored by Raji’s unwavering devotion to her brother’s future.

Across town, Babu—a diligent student residing in a modest hostel—moves through his own sphere of academic ambition and familial expectation. When Raji begins to appear in his vicinity, an uneasy connection blossoms, marked by cautious affection and the fear of scandal. The future looms large as Babu’s father, Karunakaran, arranges a traditional marriage alliance with Radha, a match that threatens to expose and complicate the delicate bond forming between the two young adults. The looming encounter between personal desire and entrenched social conventions fuels an undercurrent of tension that permeates their interactions.

Together, Raji and Babu navigate a world where love is measured against reputation, where every glance carries the weight of gossip, and where the possibility of acceptance hangs like a fragile thread. The film’s tone blends stark realism with a quiet yearning, inviting viewers to contemplate the resilience of those who strive to rewrite their destinies amid an unforgiving society.
