The Shanthi Palace sounds serene. It isn’t.
Inside this Chennai apartment building, a gossip-loving matriarch rules the roost from her arm-chair, a graceful dancer struggles to hold her life together, and an air-force pilot’s widow learns to live with courage. Watching it all is Hariharan, newly divorced, and unexpectedly drawn into the dramas unfolding around him.
As the stories of the residents intertwine, secrets are revealed, tensions rise, and the lives behind each door are anything but calm.
The Shanthi Palace is a compelling portrait of a building full of restless hearts - each searching for their own fragment of peace.
Will any of them truly find the shanthi they seek?
