Plot
The story revolves around Pooja who belongs to a typical middle class Gujarati household but strives to fulfill her dream to become a film director just like Karan Johar. Pooja takes her first bold step towards fulfilling her dream of becoming a film director by making the decision to join a hip n' happening college like St. Martin's while keeping her father in the dark about this. When Pooja enters the awe-inspiring yet strange world of St. Martin's along with her best friend Mandy, they are immediately thrown into a world of myriad experiences; a culture that is alien, modern and sometimes shocking. On her very first day in college, the simple and straightforward, Pooja comes face to face with the hip and high-class students of St. Martins's and is made intensely aware of her middle class looks and attitudes. But, ever optimistic, she not only accepts this new world but decides to take everything in her stride. Here begins Pooja's journey of constantly learning from this newfound society while keeping herself untouched by its worldliness. The fire and desire within her to make her mark in the film industry drives and inspires her through thick and thin. Modern in approach and dynamic in thinking, Pooja struggles with her orthodox family and economic barriers; sometimes succeeding, sometimes failing, sometimes confident, sometimes fraught with insecurities, sometimes crying, sometimes laughing but yet always emerging a winner! The cast received accolades from several critics, notably the performances of Sama Sikandar and Amit Jain.

Famous quotes containing the word plot:
“James’s great gift, of course, was his ability to tell a plot in shimmering detail with such delicacy of treatment and such fine aloofness—that is, reluctance to engage in any direct grappling with what, in the play or story, had actually “taken place”Mthat his listeners often did not, in the end, know what had, to put it in another way, “gone on.””
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
“Morality for the novelist is expressed not so much in the choice of subject matter as in the plot of the narrative, which is perhaps why in our morally bewildered time novelists have often been timid about plot.”
—Jane Rule (b. 1931)
“Persons attempting to find a motive in this narrative will be prosecuted; persons attempting to find a moral in it will be banished; persons attempting to find a plot in it will be shot.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
