He knows just how to push her buttons, and it's driving her up the wall.

This is not your typical boy-meets-girl story. Okay, they do meet, but there are some complications. Trish is 28. She's unemployed, overweight, single and snarky. She knows all that. Sahil is 35. He has superpowers. Well, kind of. He seems to think so, anyway. He's also hot (in a geeky kind of way, but still). And he plays the guitar, helps the underprivileged and talks about his feelings. Aren't guys like that supposed to exist only in fantasies? But here's the problem. Trish doesn't want anyone in her life.

Schadenfreude: A feeling of enjoyment that comes from seeing or hearing about the troubles of other people. That sounds worse than it is. It can actually be quite therapeutic.

Yashodhara, a quick-tempered gal from the big city, is hitched to Vijay, a laid-back desi boy from a small town in one word: trouble! The young couple must learn to adjust to married life and to each other, whether it is Yashodhara's temper tantrums or Vijay's foot-in-mouth syndrome, with a little help from their idiosyncratic staff Zarreena and Vinod, their nutty friend Vivi, and, of course, their respective families.
