Manthana (
There are three prime strong characters that of a Mother and her two daughters (one being her own and other step but groomed without any distinction) who are shown in different sets of society and the way they face challenges. The Mother is self-respecting, tough character who takes responsibility being a second wife, now a widow but still a very practicing fundamentally religious woman (void of superstitions). The elder daughter is a gold medalist in her degree academics but is deeply rooted with the family values and displays typical housemaker character having husband, son and a daughter. The younger daughter is an Indian Revenue Services officer who runs away from family and marries her love. The ideological clashes of these central characters and the related ones to them are the mainstay of the show.
About the series
The series which started to be aired from 4 March 2007 in
S. N. Sethuram has used the power of language as its effect can be seen in every dialogue. He presents the series with a starting quote of Arpane ella thaayandarige - presenting to all mothers. It is well known for the type of dialogue delivery which is first of its kind in television history. Not many series would have such lengthy dialogues and the way they convey any situation. Absolute mastery of the language may at times be seen overwhelming but hasn't come in the way of popularity. On the contrary it is well received for usage of authentic Kannada in a powerfully versatile manner. The series can also be viewed as celebration of Kannada.
Other characters
Apart from the family related and the prime ones, other characters are the Indian government officers and those which revolve around the vested interests of Shivashankar Reddy - a fundamental capitalist.
