Ambegaon, a quiet village in Maharashtra, faces a political storm just as the village’s long-serving sarpanch, Nivrutti "Anna" Ubhe, passes away on the eve of local elections. The power vacuum sparks a high-stakes scramble among the Ubhe family and their rivals, turning a routine ballot into a test of loyalty, tradition, and ambition.
Navnath "Dada" Ubhe [Ankush Chaudhari] is the eldest son who runs the family business and views the sarpanch post as his rightful inheritance. He dives into the campaign with a mix of grit and self-belief, hoping to ride a wave of family-name influence into leadership. But the opposition, led by Harish Gadhwe [Prasad Oak], is furious over a past defeat and believes that Dada’s newcomer status could be their opening to regain ground and push their own agenda.
Enter MLA Prithviraj Shinde [Uday Sabnis], who stirs the pot further by convincing Jyoti Tai Ubhe [Alka Kubal], Dada’s step-mother, to contest as a candidate. His pitch centers on grassroots empowerment and creating a visible female presence in local politics, which adds a new dimension to an already heated race. This move also complicates family dynamics, as Jyoti Tai’s relationship with Dada has not always been cordial.
To present a broader image of reform and progress, Dada brings his wife Harshada Navnath Ubhe [Sai Tamhankar] into the newly formed party, giving the campaign a female face and a public-facing partnership within the Ubhe camp. On the other side of the family, Hanumantha Ubhe [Siddharth Jadhav], Anna’s other son who runs a cement business, watches the maneuvering with interest. His wife Monica Hanumantha Ubhe [Sonalee Kulkarni] sees the opportunity in the chaos and urges him to join the race as well, testing the limits of family unity under pressure.
As the election heats up, old loyalties are tested and the bonds that bind the Ubhe clan begin to strain. The village’s political stage becomes a mirror for personal rivalries, practical needs, and the push-pull between tradition and change. Behind the scenes, the campaign machinery hums with activity: Harish Gadhwe’s side relies on a pragmatic PR push led by Priyadarshan Jadhav [Priyadarshan Jadhav] as the PR person of Gadhwe, with support from PR Team Members Nupur Dudwadkar [Nupur Dudwadkar] and Siddharth Mahashabde [Siddharth Mahashabde], shaping messages, managing narratives, and steering media attention.
The story also threads in broader community figures who influence the outcome and add texture to the tapestry of local politics. Atul [Umesh Kamat], Nilesh "Bhaujya" Ubhe [Amey Wagh], Baharmal Kaka [Sunil Tawde], and Tally [Shrikant Yadav] populate the streets with their own agendas and loyalties, illustrating how every neighborhood corner can become a focal point in a larger electoral drama. Supporting characters such as Lata Harish Ghadwe [Prajakta Hanamghar], Divya Babar [Dnyanada Ramtirthkar], and Sunaina Babar [Sulekha Talvalkar] contribute to the web of relationships and human stakes that underlie the political contest.
Throughout the narrative, the election functions as more than a simple contest for a village office; it becomes a crucible where family history, gender roles, and local power are weighed against the promise of reform and the price of change. The drama acknowledges the complexities of leadership in a close-knit community, offering a nuanced look at how ambitions, alliances, and the cost of public life ripple through generations of the Ubhe family.
