Plot[]

This film depicted a living room conversation of a family where the family's daughter (Naina Ganguly) told her father (Makrand Deshpande) and mother (Divya Jagdale) about her intention to become a porn star like Sunny Leone. Later, they went through an argument over sexuality, the porn business, women's bodies and society. At the end of their argument the daughter did not change her intention. She told her mother that if she listened her words carefully and understood those a little bit, she would be happy as her daughter wanted to become a porn star like Sunny Leone. She also added that if she fully understood her words she would regret for not becoming a porn star like Sunny Leone.

It also criticised the acting of Naina Ganguly. In spite of criticism it praised the stigma and double standard attached to a woman's sexuality, her suppression under the name of "what will people say" and demonising her right to choose which was depicted in the conversation.[9] In the review of Firstpost it described that the film reflected "shameless opportunism".
