Plot[edit]

Sharvari Dixit, a divorced single parent originally from India, resides in London with her thirteen-year-old daughter, Myra. She is an ambitious and hardworking head chef at a British restaurant who wants to start her own Maharashtrian restaurant in the UK. However, she is unable to arrange funds. Myra has taken after her mother in working hard and being an achiever. At the same time, Myra is also battling endometriosis, but Sharvari is keen to make Myra an athlete. Slowly but surely, Myra starts to disobey her mother, causing cracks to develop in their relationship. As if that were not bad enough, Sharvari loses her job. Enter Vaibhav, a school friend of Sharvari, who used to love her but was scared to propose to her. Vaibhav is single because his to-be bride had eloped with someone else on the day of his marriage. Vaibhav gets along well with Sharvari and Myra. The only silver lining is that Vaibhav and Sharvari have decided to get married to each other. But on the day of their engagement, Myra’s athletics competition takes place. Without even informing Sharvari, Myra leaves to participate in the competition.

Critical response[edit]

Kalpeshraj Kubal, a critic from The Times of India, awarded the film 3 out of 5 stars, describing the story as "relatable and timely," and wrote, "Priyanka and her team handle the emotional side of the story extremely well and give viewers a lot of things to think about."[23] The critic based at Maharashtra Times commended the lead actors, writing, "Khare has appeared on screen in a long role, her demeanor on screen is pleasing, and she has presented the emotional scenes very well, while Sanaya Anand has done a remarkable job," also giving it 3 out of 5 stars.[24] Additionally, a reviewer from Film Information noted, "The portion showing the bonding between the outspoken and street-smart daughter and her mother is good. But the drama becomes predictable once cracks develop in their relationship."[25]
