Mukhachitram

Raj Kumar, a famous plastic surgeon, marries Mahathi, a beautiful village girl who tutors children and lives with her father. The marriage marks a new chapter in two very different worlds—Raj's city status and Mahathi's simple rural life. Maya, Raj's childhood friend, watches from afar, nursing a quiet, unrequited love for him.

Maya, who has long loved Raj and writes romantic blogs, is devastated by his wedding to Mahathi. She grapples with the loss of the future she imagined with him and clings to memories of their friendship. The union also deepens the emotional rift between Maya and Raj.

Maya is involved in a serious road accident that changes everything. In the hospital, Mahathi, who is pregnant, donates blood to save Maya, a selfless act that comes at a great personal cost. The donation ultimately leads to Mahathi's death, setting the stage for a shocking new life for Maya.

With Mahathi's sacrifice, Maya survives but the donor's death becomes a tragic consequence. The hospital records the events as part of a sorrowful incident, and Raj's emotional world begins to fracture under the weight of loss. This loss destabilizes Raj and propels the plot toward drastic actions.

Shocked by the tragedy, Raj performs a radical plastic surgery on Maya, transplanting Mahathi's face onto her disfigured form. Maya emerges with Mahathi's features and begins a life that blurs identity and loyalty. The operation creates a dangerous illusion that Maya is truly Mahathi.

Maya, now bearing Mahathi's face, marries Raj as if she were Mahathi herself. The newlyweds present a picture of normalcy, and Raj seems to move forward with a wife who looks like Mahathi. The deception begins to bind Maya to Raj and to Mahathi's memory in a dangerous way.

To maintain the illusion, Mahathi's family is shown Maya as Mahathi, convincing them that Mahathi is alive in some form. Maya settles into Mahathi's household and begins to tutor the children as if she were the real Mahathi. The deception deepens the emotional stakes for everyone involved.

One day, Raj travels out of town and Maya finds Mahathi's phone. She hears recordings that reveal Raj had killed Mahathi and that he is a rapist who forced himself on her. With the help of Satya, a friend who cared for Mahathi, she learns the full extent of Raj's crimes and motive.

Enraged by the revelation, Maya decides to bring Raj to justice. She resolves to expose him in court and protect Mahathi's memory from being erased by his manipulations. The decision marks the shift from deception to a legal battle for truth.

When Raj returns, Maya provokes him to assault her and secretly records the incident. She strikes him, injuring his jaw and rendering him mute, a turning point that strengthens her case. The recorded confrontation becomes critical evidence in the coming trial.

Maya files a case in court with the help of lawyer Viswamitra, and the trial unfolds with compelling evidence. The case ends with Raj's arrest and highlights the prevalence of marital rape beyond their country. The courtroom drama brings justice into the public eye.

The film closes with Maya taking Mahathi's place within the family and continuing to tutor at Mahathi's home. A final twist reveals that Viswamitra is actually Mahathi's paternal cousin, whose involvement adds depth to the family dynamics and the truth behind the saga. This revelation reframes the relationships that drove the events.
