CONCEPT & STORY
This is a story about a middle class girl named Kasturi and her struggle to protect her family's legacy.
The
story of her dreams and aspirations which are so closely intertwined
with her family. The ambience is pure Delhi. Kasturi's father has a
saree shop in Chandni Chowk. Kasturi is born in a middleclass Punjabi
family. She is bright, intelligent, chirpy, bubbly and loves to have
Puchkas in Karol bagh right on the street. She is a girl who finds
happiness even in the smallest and simplest of things.
The story
opens with Kasturi, rushing to the temple early morning - even as the
family gets up to the morning chores - to get the priests blessing as
her result is about to be declared. Kasturi is humble and polite but
innately very strong - who's fighting to forge her own identity.
Remember,
Kasturi is not the typical hep, outgoing girl - Her beauty is in her
simplicity and her respect for tradition. She is not averse to carrying
the Hanuman Chalisa on her maiden job interview. But it is the same
discipline and inherent strength that enables her to stand up and
fight. Her mother is at par with God for her, as she takes her blessing
before the Lord's.
The family thinks and believes that there is
no need for the lady of the house to work but Kasturi subtly protests
against this idea- as she creates her own mark in this world. The
results of the University come out and Kasturi graduates with top
honours from the University. Kasturi's father who was earlier not
opposed to her carrying on with her education, suddenly changes his
mind as he is afflicted by Engina.
From this juncture starts the
real struggle. The family wants her to marry but Kasturi wants to do
something in her life. Unknown to the family Kasturi begins to work at
a firm. From here the trials and tribulations, the vicissitudes of life
begin to emerge through which Kasturi forges her identity.
