This show portrays the story of the Desai family and their firangi bahu Camili. Featuring key social issues like alcoholism, cultural prejudice, abortion and modern Indian family values; the plot follows the couple from their romantic university days in London to the not-so-ideal reality of a multi-generational household in India, The Desai's. Core changes in Hindustani culture, like the rejection of family-arranged marriages and modern romantic ideas promoting love-matches, serve to highlight the real-life adaptation of cultural views regarding family happiness in a more global India. The tension between traditional and modern family values divides the family as the couple tries and eventually fails to obtain genuine family approval without inuring deep-seated prejudice, personal injury and social conflict. |
