This summer, Sana must realize the true cost of living life on her own terms.

Parent-child relations in India could almost be thought as a trade. You get love in the form of good food for the entire 20-something years you live with them. In return, you must never have individual career aspirations. And learn to make the perfect roti. And marry into a good family. And give your parents a grandchild to play with. Fair deal, right?
