'Don't do this, don't do that. Don't wear this, don't talk to them, keep your voice down, don't answer back, don't stay out late' etc. etc.....
Imagine living with such restrictions....
Stupid, right?
Now, meet Uttara Kashyap, a normal teenager born in an abnormally orthodox and conservative Indian household. Her philosophy is to live and let live, to obey but not surrender.
When suddenly, after a phenomenal result, Uttara gets an equally phenomenal opportunity to study architecture in London, she's not a moron to turn it down, but her overly conservative family surely is.
Fighting for her life is not so easy, and when she finally gets what she wants, living that is not exactly a cakewalk. There are a lot of feelings surfacing out of nowhere, things she never imagined happening, and situations that are not easy to deal with.
What is Uttara's life going to be like?
Will she be able to get all she wants?Or will she be forced to quit and return?
Will she have to adjust again in a set of values she begged to defy?
Will Uttara get her dreams fulfilled, and her emotions in check?
To find all the answers, accompany Uttara on her journey as she goes against things that tie her down in ways she doesn't want, and fights against things she knows she shouldn't.
