The exciting life of a movie star in India, filled with rehearsals and thousands of adoring fans, is seen in Kasthuri: A South Indian Film Star. The young actress, Kasthuri, has made seven films, and seems to be at the peak of her career. However, her private life is shown to be in direct contrast to that publicized in the media, as she follows the traditions of her ancestors. When her parents feel that Kasthuri is old enough to marry, they make arrangements to have her matched with a young man that they pick. The modern, glamorous star respects their wishes, and agrees with their choice.
