Plot

In the vibrant world of Indo-Canadian society, Rahul Seth grapples with a family promise made a decade ago. On his father's deathbed, teenage Rahul had pledged to uphold his family's respectability by marrying a proper South Asian girl. Fast forward ten years, and Rahul, now a wealthy bachelor, has failed to fulfill his promise. His heart remains anchored to his deceased Anglo pop star love, Kimberly Worthum, with no room for any other woman, especially not a South Asian one. However, Ruby, Rahul's melodramatic mother, presents a dilemma. She insists that Rahul's sister Twinky's wedding won't proceed until he finds a South Asian wife. Desperate to see his sister happily married, Rahul devises an elaborate plan. He strikes a costly deal with Sue, a fiery woman he met in a bar who appeared to work as an escort. Sue, who Rahul believes is of Spanish heritage, possesses an uncanny ability to pass as a South Asian woman. As Rahul and Sue embark on their fraudulent journey, they are supported by Rocky, Rahul's loyal chauffeur harboring secrets of his own. Yet, as the deception unfolds, it becomes evident that Sue is not as she seems. There's more to her story than meets the eye, and her past may carry baggage Rahul never anticipated. Meanwhile, the scheme takes a complex turn as Rahul's family grows fond of Sue. In the midst of this unexpected acceptance, Rahul starts to grapple with feelings for Sue that are far from the initial business arrangement. He is left navigating through a maze of emotions, cultural expectations, and family drama, all while trying to uphold a promise made years ago. The story unfolds, painting a vibrant picture of identity, love, and deception in the backdrop of the intersecting worlds of Bollywood and Hollywood.
