Cha Cha Cha Tah Ruk

Cha Cha Cha Tah Ruk

Sadudee and Karakade were engaged ever since they were young. However, Karakade's mother died and her father Koeksak remarried her aunt, Panjai. Panjai forbids Karakade to meet Sadudee because she wants her daughter Kambri to marry him instead. Many years go by and Karakade and Sadudee never met each other again. Panjai and her servant abuse Karakade whenever Koeksak goes to work. One day, Karakade runs away with her friend Aum, to avoid Panjai's abuse. Panjai fakes evidence that Karakade has died, but her father still hopes that she might be alive. When Karakade and Aum arrived in another city, both are starving and moneyless. That night, there's a Luk Thung concert. Some bad guys beat up Aum and chase Karakade who runs and hides in a dressing room for the dancers. There, she's mistaken to be Keawta, a singer, and is forced to go on stage and sing. Afterwards, she and Aum go home with Pop Prati and Mae Prati's dance group. They considered Karakade the person who brought luck to their group, so the two ask her to be their daughter. Karakade agrees and becomes a singer. While singing at a concert, a pickpocket tries to steal one of the wallet of audience member Francis. Karakade immediately stops singing and asks for others to help catch the thief. Francis is very grateful and wants to help out Pop Prati and Mae Prati's group since they don't have much money. However, Francis happens to be Sadudee's friend, and Sadudee finds out that Karakade and Keawta are the same person.
