Payal has spent her life trying to meet her parents' checklist of expectations: Marriage, check. Working for her father, check. House in the suburbs, kids with perfect husband?. well, she's working on that part, but infertility treatment is putting a strain on her marriage. She?s waiting to be happy, or at least, not be a disappointment - unlike her brother Amit, who became an actor and yet seems to still be beloved no matter what he does, and her perfect little sister Shruti, who has just announced her own pregnancy. When Payal's mother announces a surprise trip to India, the strain in Payal's marriage increases as her husband refuses to miss his own family Christmas for her family's wedding in suburban Mumbai, leaving Payal to maintain the façade of a happy marriage alone.
Increasingly scrutinized and isolated in her uncle's flat in loud, crowded Mumbai, Payal desperately tries to reconcile with Bryan. Meanwhile, her father announces plans to retire and make the unqualified Amit a co-owner, and her mother decides to single-handedly fix Payal's baby problem by picking out an egg donor whether Payal wants one or not.
Everyone but Payal seems to know exactly how to fix her marriage, solve her problems, and make her happy. Surely everyone can't be wrong?
