She knows her daughter is angry with her and blames her for their situation, but believes that this was their best alternative to find their own place under the sun.
Kirti Wagaskar who is Ritesh girlfriend is no ordinary middle class girl; she plans to marry RICH. She hates her elder sister Parimal’s life who is a housewife to her grouchy traditional husband, Ganpatrao. Serving Coffee at Costa’s, she spends an entire month’s salary on a Gucci bag and dreams of landing Yash Modi, a billionaire by birth.
Binita’s father had left her some shares and she traces her father’s old stock broking house to figure out the maze of the stock market reality. Here she meets Firoz Sethna an ethical but cranky and eccentric stock broker who teaches her the ropes of correct investing.
In the meantime, the group of kitty party ladies, feel, that Binita is up to something dubious, they haven’t got the gossip on her... And why did she leave her husband. However later they come to know that she is trying to sell stocks.

With all kitty ladies invested emotionally and financially in the company, Ritesh marrying Kirti is best for everyone and Nitya, despite her feelings for Ritesh, watches the wedding morning arrive in silence. Binita sees her daughter’s dilemma and finally tells her the real reason for her coming to New Mumbai. Her husband had left her for a younger woman, and she didn’t want her daughter to deal with the pressure or gossip nor did she want to be dependent on him.
