Movie Plot
Asha Maurya is a brilliant and idealistic economist who's focused on her career and fed up with the pressure from her family to marry. Hoping to launch a micro-lending program for women in Southeast Asia, Asha welcomes a respite from her overbearing mothers pestering. After reluctantly going on a date with local bachelor Ravi Shah, she ropes him into pretending they're an item. Meanwhile, Ravi struggles to earn his fathers respect and hopes a promising relationship might make things better, even if its a facade. Asha and Ravi don't exactly get along at first, which is precisely why they're confident their plan will work until they actually start falling for each other.
