She has affairs with a college friend, a professor and later with Rahul. Despite trying hard she has never had an orgasm. After every break up and at her birthdays, when she is very depressed for being alone, she is cheered up by her best friends Pallavi Khanna and Tina Das. At her 32nd birthday she has a dream where she has died upon waking she has an epiphany and decides to marry Jeevan Anand, a businessman, who has been courting her for a long time however they have never been physical. Her mother and friends warn her about the shy and naive Jeevan Anand. But given her mother didn’t marry her father and raised her as a single mother, Kanika is terrified of being alone and facing society. Waking up next morning after her engagement ceremony, she has a vague recollection of having an orgasm the night before but she could not recall who it was. All three friends go to investigate who Kanika slept with. They visit Jeevan Anand and Professor, and later are called by Rahul who appears as a drag queen and tells Kanika that he was encouraged to be himself. While none of her old flings were with her the night before, her old rival schoolmate tells her that she saw, Karan, Pallavi's husband, leaving Kanika's room in hotel. Kanika is devastated and drives back with flashes of the night with Karan.

The Indian Express
★★★★★ ★★★★★ 3.0
But I’ll take all of this when it comes to the film whose beats are steeped in beating the patriarchy. I’ll even forgive the blatant make-up brand placement that the leading lady brandishes. Surely a more classy way could have been found? But Pednekar herself is a riot, and really carries the film with a terrific mix of crumbling vulnerability and confidence. I enjoyed its joyous silliness, and its unapologetic revelling in being female, and celebrating female solidarity. It sends up expectations of being a ‘good’ daughter, daughter-in-law, mother, and fixes them with a warm, empathetic gaze which says, no worries, we got you, whether you come or go.
