For all outward appearances, Nina is the perfect Indian daughter. But underneath, she feels like a fraud.
In one day, she caught her secret (white) boyfriend having an affair, she walked out of her lucrative career as a lawyer to become an artist, and to cap it all off, a disturbing encounter with a spiritual guru has her questioning her faith.
Unable to face shattering her parentsâ ambitions of the perfect arranged marriage, she finally agrees to be matched.
But as she dons a suit and pretends to go to work every day, the lies are beginning to stack up. Surely somethingâs got to give?
