Plot
MBA students Vedanth aka Vedhu and Janhavi are lovers. Janhavi goes with Vedhu to wear the golden chain to celebrate her birthday. After the celebration, they go to the hotel, where a heated argument occurs between Vedhu and another group of boys. This then turns into a brawl. During the brawl, Janhavi lost her chain, which is given by her mother. After searching for the chain, it was not found. Vedanth says he'll purchase a new chain by the end of the day.
Vedanth's father who needs money takes loans from everyone. He put his house and wife Mangalya Sutra as collateral with a pawn business. Finally, Vedhu pawns his bike for money but, he only got half of the money needed to buy a new chain. Raghu, a friend of Vedhu suggests gambling to double the money. Vedhu only has 35K which what he got for selling the bike. The chain costs 70K, so Vedhu agreed to gamble. Things turned for the worst in betting, they lost 70K. Now in debt, the two have to pay their dues back to Shiva who is in charge of this business. Shiva only gives them till 11 in the morning to pay up otherwise, they'll be dead. After many shenanigans they finally get enough funds to pay back Shiva due to their marketing talents. Janhavi, who is the mother of Padma, found the chain all along in her bag. It was dropped accidentally when the brawl had occurred. Vendhu, after all, was able to pay back Shiva, get his bike back, and finally his mother's Mangalya Sutra.

Critical reception
Sunayana Suresh of The Times of India gave the film 3/5 stars and wrote, "Sarvajanikarige Suvarnavakaasha is fun and has enough laughs amid all the confusion. The film is a fun roller-coaster ride, but the twists and turns could have been a tad more to ensure a more exhilarating one."[1] A. Sharadhaa of The New Indian Express wrote, "The film brings in several twists. However, the betting and the chasing episodes are too long, and test the viewers’ patience."[5] Aravind Shwetha of The News Minute wrote, "Sarvajanikarige Suvarnavakasha can be a good watch if you can excuse the slow pace and repetitiveness of the film."[6]
