Bhama Rukmani (/bɑːmɑː/) is a 1980 Indian Tamil-language romantic comedy film directed by R. Bhaskaran and written by K. Bhagyaraj.

He tells his mother about his love but she points out that Bhama's father, Ezhumalai had offered sanctuary to them when he was younger.

A guilt-ridden Nandhagopal accepts and is quickly married to Bhama though Rukmani is kept in the dark.

Worried that Rukmani will commit suicide if she learns the truth, Nandhagopal also marries her.

[3][4] Kanthan of Kalki wrote that the film perfectly captures the drought of stories adapted for the screen.
