Maanikya (2014)

Soulful and evocative, this socially relevant drama delves into the benefits of adopting non-violent methods of resolving conflict, through the life of Vijay. While on a trip abroad Vijay (Sudeep) meets Manasa (Ranya) and comes to know of her family that stays in a Bidar village. The two begin to become very close, but Manasa pleads with Vijay to end their friendship, as her family would never approve of their love. Vijay returns to India and begins to entrench himself in Manasa's family by gaining their love and trust. At a point when Vijay could well succeed in getting their approval to marry Manasa, there is a twist in the tale. There has been a decades long feud between Manasa's father, Beera (Ravishankar) and Adishesha (Ravichandran), who just happens to be Vijay's father. What is the reason behind this 27 year enmity? What will happen when Beera comes to know that Vijay is his arch enemy's son? Will Vijay succeed in employing non-violent methods to achieve peace, love and happiness between the two warring families?
