Using the money she made from selling laddoos, Shashi secretly enrolls in a conversational English class that offers to teach the language in four weeks, showing her resourcefulness at navigating an unfamiliar city alone. She is comforted by a French chef Laurent who happened to be queuing up behind her at the restaurant. While Shashi is in New York, she has a traumatic experience at a cafe due to her inability to communicate in English. During her flight to New York, Shashi is given inspirational advice by a fellow passenger (a cameo by Amitabh Bachchan). Her husband and children will join her as the wedding approaches. It is decided that Shashi will go to New York alone five weeks before the wedding to help Manu organize. Shashi's older sister Manu, who lives in New York City, invites Shashi's family to her daughter Meera's wedding to Kevin. However, her young son, Sagar, loves her as she is, and her mother-in-law offers her words of sympathy.

Her husband Satish and daughter Sapna take her for granted, mock her poor English skills, and generally treat her disrespectfully, making Shashi feel negative and insecure. Shashi Godbole is an Indian homemaker who makes and sells laddoos as a home-run business. 5.1 Screenings at international film festivals.
