Synopsis
When her mother suddenly divorces her father and leaves their comfortable home in Kolkata, Nitya finds herself in the new setting of Navi Mumbai.
Nitya's life is turned upside down. She must navigate life in a new city, start a new job at a call centre, and let go of her ambition to go to the United States to get an MBA. She soon meets and befriends the extremely nice Ritesh Jetmalani, who helps her cope with all this change.
Kirti Wagaskar, Ritesh's girlfriend, has plans to marry rich. She spends an entire month’s salary on a Gucci bag and dreams of marrying Yash Modi, a billionaire by birth. She resents her elder sister Parimal's life as a housewife with a grouchy traditional husband, Ganpatrao.
Nitya’s mother Binita Sen is troubled by her failed marriage. She hopes to find the new start she needs in New Mumbai. She is befriended by the women in the colony and joins their kitty party. She knows her daughter is angry with her and blames her for their situation, but believes that this was their best alternative.
Binita’s father had left her some shares. At her father’s old stock brokerage house she meets Firoz Sethna, an ethical but cranky and eccentric stock broker who teaches her the ropes of investing.
In the meantime, the group of kitty party ladies feels that Binita is up to something. They come to know that she is trying to sell stocks become amateur investors, switching from watching soap operas to CNBC to look for investing opportunities.
One day at work, Nitya overhears CEOs discussing plans to get their children married. She tells her mother, who advises her friends to invest in their companies because the stock prices are likely to go up with the marriage.
With all kitty ladies invested emotionally and financially in the company, Binita determines that Ritesh marrying Kirti is best for everyone. Nitya, despite her feelings for Ritesh, watches the wedding day arrive in silence. Binita sees her daughter’s dilemma and finally tells her the real reason for her coming to New Mumbai. Her husband had left her for a younger woman, and she didn’t want her daughter to deal with the pressure or gossip nor did she want to be dependent on him.
