==Plot==
''Sanju Weds Geetha'' begins with Sanjay "Sanju" graduating in computer science with top marks — immediately after which he leaves to his hometown [[Kodagu]]. There he meets Geetha who is seen helping a beggar, and he is instantly infatuated. He pursues her to like him too. After several attempts, the strict and strong-willed Geetha gives into Sanju's good nature and they soon become very close. When Geetha reveals a dark childhood story to Sanju that involves her being abused by her cousin, Sanju looks past the incident and likes her even more.

The evil cousin finds out about the romance between Sanju and Geetha and then he misbehaves with Geetha. She pleads Sanju to marry her soon; he agrees and tells her that they would marry the very next day. Geetha runs away from her house. On the way, the evil cousin abducts and molests her. Sanju finds out something is amiss and finds Geetha before rescuing her. He gives the cousin a chase, hunts him down and fatally stabs him with a knife.

Sanju is [[Life imprisonment|sentenced for life]] for the murder. When Geetha visits him in jail, he asks her to marry someone else. She becomes more depressed. On one occasion, Geetha visits one of their previous meeting spots. She slips from the lookout, hurts her head, and loses her memory. A series of tragic events follow leading to the ultimate death of Sanju and Geetha.
