Four extremely independent women Anjana (Kirti Kulhari) a successful lawyer at a reputed firm,Umang (Bani J) a fitness trainer,Siddhi(Manvi Gagroo) belonging to a super super rich family whose mother is overly concerned to get her married,Damini (Sayani Gupta) a fearless journalist and founder of a startup.

Anjana is a single mother,divorcee and her life is set with a perfect career,sweet daughter.She is not thinking of moving on until she finds out her ex husband is seeing a girl and Anjana kind of thinks,why not me!!??What the hell I was doing all these years and now I must move on and look out for a guy!!Fair enough.And she lands up in affair with a boy much younger than her and ultimately breaks up as she thinks he is getting way too serious and planning a future with her which she is scared of because of first failed marriage.Then she falls for a married guy Shashank Bose(Sameer Kochar) with some T&C.

Umang is a small town punjabi girl,a fitness trainer who is bisexual and wants to get out from her place as , obviously,no one will digest her sexuality and it will be good for her career as well.She has random relationships where she is not serious with anyone ,but ,finally finds her true love in  Samara Kapoor (Lisa Ray)who is a famous actress and gradually they decide to take this relationship further and plan to get married.

Siddhi ,as mentioned,is a girl raised in complete SoBo environment.She does not have any particular goal in life as her mother(Simone Singh) is always behind her with new plans to lose weight, different matches,searching groom,she is not allowed to think for her own,freely.She has a childhood friend who likes her but she is not able to come to any decision about him.

Damini is a passionate journalist ,a start up founder.She too has random relationships like friends with benefits kind!She always fantasises her gynaecologist Amir Warsi ( Milind Soman❤️❤️❤️)and has a really good friend,little bit more than a friend,Jeh(Prateik Babbar) and she is super confused between these two men all the time!!

Focusing on the best part,All the actors are superb,in fact,their effortless acting carries us till the last episode!All have done fabulous job!Title song is wonderful with jabardast music.Lyrics are very relative and highlights the plot in brief (Koi kuch kahe parwa na mujhe,karne ko kuch bhi karu.).Also the songs which run in the background throughout the different episodes are beautifully written,sung and perfectly match to the respective situations.

All those issues which are considered a taboo in society are covered well.Anjana carrying her crying baby to the bar where she breastfeeds her and how people react to it strangely!Siddhi coming out of the bodyshaming thing.Umang being accepted as a bisexual and deciding to get married to her girlfriend.Though,her family is shown not accepting her sexuality, hints us towards that part of society which is not yet open to accept you as you are!Anjana facing misogynistic behaviour of her boss who doesn't promote her,though she is deserving for the post, citing lame reasons like how she behaves weirdly in those days of months,how she's not able to handle her job as she is single mother!!Damini is pregnant and she wants to keep the baby and parents support her completely!These four friends are always beside each other through thick n thin.They openly discuss sex,periods, boyfriends,orgasm, everything!!

Now the weak part and some unrealistic issues!When siddhi's parents come to know about her stint with semi porn site,she is sent to 2 months Europe trip to get out of all the mess!! From there she calls Umang and cries a lot ,seems to be disturbed ,broken!Out of worry and concern,Umang and other girls fly to Istanbul the very next day with absolutely zero knowledge of Siddhis whereabouts ,on the basis of an Instagram post from where they find her location, apparently!Amir Warsi impregnates Damini,but she loves Jeh and wants to co parent the child with Amir!!It gets bit hard to digest this like how she will manage it!!These girls' problems are similar to the state of a privileged child who when given all the best toys of this world , still will not be happy,as he/she will get confused which is the best toy,what kind of toy exactly  I would like to play with or if I want all of them and ultimately ends up choosing no toy and crying badly complaining I don't have anything to play!!

The entire story revolves around the high profile characters who have already crossed level 1 of life game where roti,kapda,makan issues are solved.Their problems are of level 2 and 3 where common (wo)man is yet to reach because we are occupied in aaj bai nahi aayi,dudh fat gaya kya karu,bache ko tiffin me kya du etc etc!!This is where I got fascinated with this series.Thought,this is the perfect life,yeh sahi hai,aisI life mangta hai !!! somewhere we fantasise such kind of life wherein we are independent, answerable to nobody,taking my own decisions,living freely on whole and sole my terms which I never got to experience ever!! I spoke with friends of my age who had the same thought!Life ho to aisi!!And some of my friends who are almost 10 15 yrs younger to me didn't like it!They were like bakwas hai,illogical hai,its way too far from reality!!May be,Because,they have seen such kind of life closely and they are aware of it's goods and bads,were firm on their views!

But end of the day all the four girls are confused and do not reach to any conclusion!!I am not saying,getting to conclusion means getting married and committed to one person for your entire life!But whatever you are doing,be clear and stick to it! I am glad,they are shown admitting it in the last scene.We have almost everything but We don't know what we want!!?
