Story

Sriram (Rupeysh Choudhary) is a public prosecutor who strictly follows ethics, honesty, and professional values. He lives alone, staying away from his parents. Because he is very strict about rules, the people in his colony avoid him.

In such a situation, Janaki (Aakanksha Singh) enters his life when she gets caught up in a difficult problem. Sriram falls in love with her at first sight and even wants to marry her. But Janaki puts a condition. She tells him to lie and go against his values of honesty and integrity. At the same time, Sriram’s parents Divakar (Rajendra Prasad) and Bhuvaneshwari (Archana) decide to separate.

Why does Sriram stay away from his parents? Why do the colony people avoid someone like Sriram who always speaks the truth? Why does Janaki ask Sriram to lie before marrying him? What problems does Sriram face when he starts lying? Why does his mother scold him? Why does Bhuvaneshwari want to divorce Divakar? Did Sriram bring his parents back together? Did he celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary (Shashtipoorthi)? The answers to these questions form the story of the movie Shashtipoorthi.
