''Gowri Ganesha'' is a Carnatic-language BlackComedy made in 1991, starring Ananth Nag. The movie follows Lambodhar, a small time hustler and ConArtist who, in the course of perpetrating a malingering based con in a hospital, stumbles upon the corpse of a young woman named Gowri. Upon finding out that she was an orphan (just like him), then finding her diary in which she kept a sordid account of all the people who used her and drove her to die penniless in a government run hospital, Lambodhar resolves to avenge her. Not by inflicting violence, but by perpetrating a [[AddedAlliterativeAppeal long distance]] [[TheCon long con]], that nets him a ''lot'' of wealth.

Added DiffLines:

* RunawayGroom: Played with. Chandramouli abandons Gowri and takes an overnight flight to Punjab in Northern India. That said, it wasn’t an actual wedding - Chandramouli had hired Gowri to pretend to be his “bride” during a reception at an expensive hotel, just to get his parents to stop haranguing him to get married. However, said parents get miffed that they weren’t involved in the wedding ceremony and weren’t even invited to that reception. The dad fakes a story about the family being victimized by an insurgent attack, to emotionally manipulate Chandramouli into visiting them. He therefore has to call off the “reception” in order to take the next available flight to Punjab.
