Season 1
The story is about Mr. Ramany (Prithivi Raj), a man with a silver spoon when he was born. He was the fourth child in the family and before him are his three agonising sisters. His three sisters envied him because he is the much-awaited male baby in the family. So he became so special to everyone especially to their parents. As time passes by, Mr. Ramany wanted to go to USA – somewhere away from his three sisters, from his army father who acts like their house is a military academy and from their mother who always lectures in their house since she is a primary school teacher. However, fate does not allow him to go. His family wanted him to marry a girl who has the same name as his name, Ramany (Vasuki). She lives in the USA for a short span of time. The two Ramanys are different individuals with distinct dreams but they are thrown to be together out of their destiny. The family was successful on getting the two married. But they appear to be an utterly incompatible couple, who agree to disagree on almost everything. Everyday comedy takes new shape in this serial.

Season 2
The show showcases the daily humorous happenings in the middle class household run by the housewife Ramany (Devadarshini) and her husband Ramany (Ram G) with their daughter Ramya. Both Ramany's long for their carefree joyous life when they were newly married and think about how life has changed for them after the arrival of their only daughter. Mr.Ramany is a sales representative who has a level of humour. How Mr.Ramany often falls into trouble due to his innocence and how in the end his wife is the one to the rescue most of the times takes new shape in this serial. Mrs.Ramany is an ordinary Tamil housewife who complains about all the better suitors who were willing to marry her, her effort to make their middle class ends meet, about her husband who is not shrewd enough to earn more and the list goes on. Their daughter Ramya is the only person who speaks sense into them in ridiculous situations. Nair is Mr.Ramany’s family friend who stays in their outhouse for a meagre rent. Uncle Chandhru is a respectable person who knows only something about everything and gets into troubles. Mrs.Ramany’s mother and a gossip monger maid servant, Kamala adds spice to this story.
