When childhood friend Flà ¡via walks back into her life, Nishat falls for her instantly. Then a school competition invites students to create their own businesses, and both Flà ¡via and Nishat decide to showcase their talent as henna artists. As the competition heats up, Nishat has a decision to make: stay in the closet for her family, or put aside her differences with Flà ¡via and give their relationship a chance
