Nineteen-year-old Anjali Bose, born into a traditional family in Gauripur, has her life planned out for her. Her parents want her to marry a suitable Bengali boy of their choice. But Anjali – intelligent and ambitious – dreams of a life of adventure and self-fulfilment. Encouraged by her teacher, Peter Champion, Anjali runs away from home after a disastrous meeting with a bridegroom candidate picked out for her. She arrives in the thriving IT hub of Bangalore and, free for the first time from the confines of class ethnicity and gender, hurls herself into forging a new life. A new life in a new India, however, comes at a price.
