What Is Shivaswamy’s Secret?

In the final episode Jaji figures out from official documents and Shiva’s declaration (to the election officials) that there is a discrepancy in his age and the number of years of her in law’s marriage. Jaji pressures the family purohit and also her late father in law’s friend to reveal the secret of Shivaswamy. 

After much coaxing the pujari reveals that Shivaswamy is the illegitimate child of Nagamma from her failed affair. Since Lakshman Jaagidar (the father in law) is deeply in love with Nagamma he adopts the child and marries her secretly. The consequence of this action affects Shivaswamy deeply and he grows with a deep seated complex about his illegitimate status. The fact that he is a bastard child makes him insecure and jealous. He constantly seeks validation from his mother about him being the rightful heir.

In the end when Shivaswamy is overpowered and questioned about his motive he confesses that he committed these crimes to be the sole heir to the family wealth and name. And thus get a sense of legitimacy. He also commits these crimes as a revenge against his mother- since he holds her responsible for his illegitimacy. In the end Shivaswamy takes Jaji captive and threatens to hurt her negotiating his escape; he manages to run but is blocked by a procession carrying the family deity and as if by divine intervention Shivaswamy meets his end- he suddenly vomits blood and dies.
