What's it about?
Our story begins with the introduction of two families living in the city of Ghaziabad. The Mehta family comprising of Mr Veerender Mehta and his two children 16 year old Rachna and 11 year old Ansh is a simple, middle class family with middle class values and middle class dreams….well almost. Veerender’s daughter Rachna is a badminton talent and hopes to someday rise to international ranks. And the simple, bank employee Veerender takes it upon himself to fulfill this dream of Rachna’s. He knows his wife would have wanted him to do it. But other than this differentiation, they are like every other family living in the middle class neighborhood of Krishna Kunj.
The other family is that of Amar Nanda comprising of Amar and his wife Rajni and their two children 17 year old Varun and 16 year old Anu. Amar is a senior Engineer with a multinational company. He always thought Ghaziabad would never be good enough for him and still continues to look for avenues to move abroad. He considers his wife Rajni the biggest hurdle in his life. It’s almost as if to him, she symbolizes what is “not right” with his life. Right from her simple, average IQ to her acceptance of life as it is, irritates him. And he finds that reflected in his daughter Anu too and so keeps comparing her to his son Varun who is a version of himself…a topper, ambitious and smart.
The two families are related. Amar’s sister Veena was married to Veerender. But Amar used Veena’s death as an excuse to distance himself from the Mehta family. However the bond between Anu and Rachna is very deep…. And this irks Amar a lot.
