It’s 1951, and newly independent India is breaking free of its past. Lata is a spirited young student. Her mother wants to find her a husband – a suitable boy. As Lata meets potential matches, she’s torn between romance and responsibility. Meanwhile, her headstrong friend Maan defies his father as he falls in love with a glamorous courtesan. Both are determined to decide their own future. And, in a country still haunted by the horrors of Partition, anything could happen.

This sumptuous story of passion, politics and romance is the first screen adaptation of Vikram Seth’s classic novel, written by Andrew Davies, and directed by acclaimed filmmaker Mira Nair.
