Legit everything you would ever want in a Rom-com. This is 100% for the South Asian girlies but, thank you for letting this fellow immigrant kid ( and firstborn daughter 🥴) peek into your experience. 

The story of figuring out how to be loved in the way you deserve and communicating that is a universal story. Kareena and Prem were relatable and funny characters. Mrs. Sharma managed to make realistic and loving characters with a believable conflict. This was a story about so many kinds of love within a community and how culture makes expressing it difficult. 
 
Between the steamy scenes, swoon-worthy declarations of “not love”, and laugh-out-loud moments I can’t recommend this refreshing story enough.

Edit: I don’t think I explained how cute this was. It has eating competitions, our love interest saving the mc from her cinnamon allergy, kitchen fights, with a sprinkle of jealousy throughout. Like I said, perfect rom-com.
