Her father, an ex-brigadier, is shown to be her only pillar of support.
She goes through sex change operation and becomes one physically as well. Vaani Kapoor’s character is born a man but always felt like a woman from the inside. The film questioned the set norms of masculinity and something like that is attempted here as well. He has to suffer a lot because of his choice but never deviates from his passion. There’s a Marathi film called Natarang (2010), where Atul Kulkarni plays a wrestler who falls in love with the tamasha art form and becomes a nachya – a character who acts in an effeminate manner – for the love of art. It takes a long time for him to figure out that love transcends bodies, transcends gender, norms and it doesn’t need outside validation… Then, it gets revealed that she’s a trans woman, and suddenly everything isn’t the same. Their bond starts growing beyond lust and attraction. She gets along well with her ex-Brigadier father but doesn’t see eye-to-eye with the mother. He has the typical loud Punjabi family, comprising two dominating sisters, a father who is in love with a Muslim woman and a grandfather who is the sanest of them all. She has no problems with his government school background. Sparks fly when bodybuilder Manvinder "Manu" Munjal (Ayushmann Khurrana) and Zumba teacher Maanvi Brar (Vaani Kapoor), meet at his gym.
