Brought up by a single father, who does not care about her, she is closer to her 'Archu Aunty', a resident at the old-age home that Diya visits. She trusts the world blindly, thinks that whatever happens, happens for good. The only thing that she wants right now is to get away from her home. Why? Because her father has decided to remarry after 10 years of her mother's death and she is still not over it. To add to the trouble, her to-be 30-year-old step-mother is already pregnant.
