Slowly the husbands are running out of money so they trick their wives and go to Hyderabad to get some money from Appu's friend. Meanwhile, their wives are struggling to pay their rents and decide to work even though their husbands told them not to. When the husbands come back, they kick their wives out of the house since they got jobs. The wives go to live with Jhumri and Bhishma.

One day, Meena and Ravi's daughter, Rani, is diagnosed with a heart problem and needs to be operated on quickly. Both husband and wife try to get two lakh rupees to save her life. The wives earn the amount by working hard, while Ravi tries smuggling drugs to get the money. The three men are then caught by the police, arrested and also beaten by the police. Bhishma helps them by finding the real owner of the smuggling commotion and freeing the men. The husbands realize their mistake and apologize to their wives. The husbands and the wives decide to work together for a better living. The story has a happy ending with the families living happily together.

Reception

Bollywood Hungama wrote "On the whole, AAMDANI ATTHANNI KHARCHA RUPAIYA is an ordinary fare with average prospects".[4] Rediff wrote "director Raghavendra Rao wanted to drive a social message across but he seems to have confused the genres. He changes track from comedy to hysteria in the blink of an eyelid. And you are left pretty clueless".[5] The Hindu wrote ""Aamdani....", like many other Padmalaya ventures, is directed by K. Raghavendra Rao.After seeing his latest venture here, how one wishes K. Raghavendra Rao, had saved us the spectacle of an outrageously retrograde film. In his endeavour to raise a few good laughs about middle-class couples facing an increasingly uphill struggle to make ends meet, he exposes us all to ridicule."[6]
