What is the web series about?

Set in a village named Buchivolu, the series has an exciting premise. MLA Kodandanm’s son Gopal threatens to jump into a defunct water tank if his love Surekha doesn’t come back. Kodandam is embarrassed at what his son is up to at a time when elections are around the corner. His relative Narasimham, meanwhile, attempts to tarnish his image and wrest power. In the same village, a Sub-Inspector named Giri is assigned the job of bringing back Surekha if he has to get a transfer out of the village. There ensues a cat and mouse game between the two political rivals, with Gurumurthy desiring to mint money from repairs to the water tank. The defunct tank and the naive Surekha become tools in the hands of selfish men with petty goals. 

Also starring Sudarshan, Prem Sagar, Nirosha, Divi and others, the series is much awaited.
