Swami is not just the story of Swami.

Warning: Spoilers
Swami is not just the story of Swami.

It is the story of a dream. A dream that Radha saw; that her son will go to America someday. A dream that Swami saw, to own a rocking chair. A dream that both saw for their son's future.

It is also the story of family values. Values that parents teach their children.

It is the story of innocence that is all lost these days.

It is the story of the relationships, the relationship between husband & wife, father and son. The relations that are eternity.

Swami is a simple Marathi accountant works in a small town and married to Radha a south Indian simple girl. When he gets a job in Mumbai, both of them are happy as they want their son to study in a nice school and go to America someday. Swami reaches Mumbai and starts working as the accountant in a jewelery shop. He has the dream of owning a Rocking Chair. Whenever he sees a chair, he keeps staring at that as he won't be able to afford it. Radha falls sick and Swami must arrange thirty thousand to saver her. He takes out all his savings and starts working overtime for arranging the money. But one day, after reaching home, he finds a rocking chair in home. Shocked when he checks, he finds all the money gone. Before he reacts, Radha ask him for forgiveness as she wanted to fulfill his dream rather than her life. Radha dies leaving Swami and Anand all alone and time flies too.

Now Anand a grown up man working as an Executive in a multinational bank and is married to Pooja after falling in love with her. Adarsh is their kid who is very fond of Swami. After years of trying, Anand got a chance to go to America, but with a condition to leave his father back home. Will Anand go to America ? Swami saw the introduction of a new Director Ganesh Acharya. The story is nice as well as the Direction. The only problem with the movie is "it is not made for masses". Movies like this are made for creative satisfaction only. This will not be a hit in spite of how nice the acting, direction, music or cinematography is ?
