The film's central story concerns a father who is trying to organize an enormous, chaotic and expensive wedding for his daughter, Aditi, for whom he has arranged a marriage with a man she has known for only a few weeks. A wedding is one of the few times each generation that an extended Punjabi family comes together from all corners of the globe, bringing its emotional baggage along. The four-day arrangements and celebrations will see clumsy organization, family drama, dangers to the happy end of the wedding and lots of music.
