Synopsis
The short series tells the story of an overweight chubby girl, Mahi, who is looking for perfect love but insists on being herself rather than changing herself to conform to socially defined narrow standards of beauty.
Plot
Mahi Talwar is a 25-year-old single woman who writes an advice column in a Delhi-based fashion magazine where she is always looked down upon but she aspires to be a serious journalist and more confident with her colleagues. She comes from a loud Punjabi family, pampered by her father but sidelined by her mother and beautiful elder sister Anjali. She has a crush on a handsome businessman named Ishan Singh Ahluwalia and tries every way to get closer to him with the help of her friends, Sid and Roshni.
