Badra Kali

A timid Brahmin girl named Gayathri marries Ganesh, a traditional Brahmin, but her irrational fear causes her behavior to become abnormal and unpredictable, leading to the loss of her mental stability, the accidental death of her child, and her eventual divorce from Ganesh, who remarries unaware of his previous marriage, but Gayathri continues to visit Ganeshs house and attacks his new wife, Jayanthi, prompting him to advise Gayathris father to take her away and she regains her memory and sanity after being attacked, explaining that she lost her mental balance out of fear after witnessing a murder, and she later reconciles with her life, lives independently, and refuses alimony from Ganesh, but tragically dies in his arms while fighting to save Jayanthis kidnapped daughter.
