Transcription
Premise
The series is a scripted version of the life of Masaba Gupta, featuring her family, her love life and her career as a fashion designer. Masaba and her mother, Neena Gupta, play fictionalized versions of themselves.[2][3]
Plot
Masaba and her friends and family are left in a stir when an apparent rumor indicating her father's rocky marriage is featured in the newspaper. Despite all the speculation around her marriage, she is accompanied by her husband, Vinay to an award function later that evening and she hopes that it will hush everyone. However, once the program concludes, it is revealed that the couple truly has decided to end things for the better and upon constant insistence from Vinay, Masaba makes the news public through Instagram.
As she moves in with her mother, Neena Gupta, she realizes that things weren't going to get any better in the near future. Between accepting her separation from Vinay, her mother's constant interference with her life decisions, and unwanted social scrutiny, Masaba begins to struggle in her professional life. She eventually moves out to live on her own and for once being able to get a space where she can work out her new collection at peace. However, after having delivered a disaster of a collection launch titled "Hot mess" inspired by her own life, Masaba learns some bitter truth about herself from her therapist who says that her survival instinct is high as she always finds a way of escaping her problems.
Set out to make things right, Masaba decides to face her problems and starts by facing her infuriated investors who warn her to fix things before it's too late. Masaba then decides to relaunch her collection because amidst all the drama in the fashion show the previous night, no one really could focus on the dresses. This time around the dresses were modelled by her own employees to emphasize that her collection "Hot Mess" actually stands for celebrating imperfections. She then goes ahead to face her 'Original Problem' and meets Vinay to sell off their house, which marks the proper ending of her relationship. Finally she goes to meet Mr. Rana, her main investor to apologize for all the failed shows. Instead, he informs her that her posts regarding the relaunch of her collection has been taken very positively by the industry and got everyone talking about it. Masaba breaks down into tears that she has done something right after so long and Mr. Rana comforts her by apologizing that he didn't believe in her at first. He then starts to take a romantic liking towards Masaba.
Her next collection launching took a sad turn when everyone in the audience began leaving to see a wannabe-influencer/designer Qayannat's collection. Amidst all the tension, she also has to take a pregnancy test and is caught by her mother before that. Neena is furious that Masaba is going around having sex with so many men. Masaba eventually takes the test and it comes out negative. She points out to her mother that she really needed her support and not her lecture that day, which strains their relationship further. To bring her professional game up once again, she decides to launch "House of Shadi" to make clothes for wedding and soon finds herself tangled in a weird relationship with the groom. While on the other hand, she hints at her interest towards Mr. Rana, who is in fact confused as to what Masaba really wants out of him.
With her successfully launching house of Shadi, securing the grand finale of "Fashion week", and her mazing through her relationships with the two men, she eventually makes a choice and settles for the best.
