Reports are that Mrs Subbalakshmi will be based on the story of a married couple. On the storyline, we hear that it is about a husband who neglects his wife and even forgets their wedding anniversary. How the wife reacts to it and ends up celebrating the day all alone forms the crux of the story. Mrs Subbalakshmi will have Lakshmi Manchu playing the titular role with Srinivas Avasarala as her husband. Written by Balabhadrapatruni Ramani, it is directed by Vamsi.
