Directed by Ramesh Indira, "Ayyana Mane" features standout performances from Kushee Ravi, Akshaya Nayak, and Manasi Sudheer. Set against the scenic backdrop of Chikmaglur, the story revolves around the mysterious deaths of three daughters-in-law in a respected family, events believed to be linked to a curse associated with the family deity, Kondayya.

The narrative intensifies with the arrival of Jaji (played by Kushee Ravi), who, aware of the curse and the danger she faces, embarks on a perilous quest to uncover the truth. Partnering with the family maid Taayavva and police officer Mahanthesh, Jaji’s pursuit of answers draws her closer to deadly secrets, keeping audiences riveted till the very end.

Reflecting on her experience, Kushee Ravi shared, “Portraying Jaji’s fear and resilience was both challenging and rewarding. It’s surreal to see the series resonate with so many people and achieve such a milestone so quickly. I’m deeply thankful to ZEE5 and Shruthi Naidu Productions for championing Kannada stories like this. The love from audiences feels incredibly personal, and I’m truly grateful. With the show now available in Telugu, Tamil, and Hindi, it’s thrilling to see it reach even more viewers—it’s a proud moment for all of us.”
