Concept
The story revolves around the life of a girl named Varsha and her journey towards the big world. Despite being raised in a small town (Shajahanpur), Varsha's confidence in achieving her aim is very high. She wants to be a professional stage actor and, being ahead of her time, her thoughts are too evolved to be appreciated by her family. She wants to accomplish her goal. Urged by her teacher one day, she goes to Lucknow, learns stage acting and gets admitted into the National School of Drama, which becomes the launchpad for her career.
Not only does she become successful, she becomes a superstar. But in her attempt to become the queen of glamour, she realises how shallow the glamor world is.
