What’s the plot of Sivarapalli?
Sivarapalli is a light-hearted story about a young man from a bustling city who finds himself navigating the quirks of rural life and its eccentric inhabitants. The narrative follows Shyam, an engineering graduate who unexpectedly takes on the role of Panchayat secretary in the remote village of Sivarapalli. Reluctant at first, he is quickly thrown into a comedy of errors, full of twists and turns, as he tries to adapt to the unfamiliar environment. The trailer offers a glimpse into Shyam's journey as he stumbles through encounters with quirky yet lovable villagers. Amid challenges and surprising moments of joy, the question remains—can Shyam find his footing in village life, or will it overwhelm him? Bursting with humour, heart, and the indomitable spirit of its characters, the trailer beautifully captures the charm, chaos, and warmth of rural life.
"Our diverse audience's evolving preferences inspire us to expand our local language content with authentic and compelling stories," says Manish Menghani, Director – Content Licensing, Prime Video, India. "We are excited to collaborate once again with our trusted partners, TVF, who share our vision for fresh and innovative storytelling. We are thrilled to present the Telugu Original comedy-drama Sivarapalli to our audiences. This series seamlessly blends old-world charm, humour, and quirky characters into a simple yet captivating narrative that reflects the unique cultural and social essence of the small-town village of Sivarapalli. At its core is the journey of a young professional navigating challenges far from his comfort zone, whose struggles, resilience, and growing connection with the vibrant community around him highlight universal themes of purpose and belonging. With heartfelt moments, relatable challenges, and a talented ensemble cast, I am confident Sivarapalli will resonate deeply with viewers in India and beyond."
