Synopsis

Jadubai Jorat tells the audience that beauty is not what appears on the exterior but it is what is within. The story is about Jui Kanvinde Samant (Nirmiti Sawant), a simple, middle-class woman from Maharashtra, who has sacrificed all her interests to take care of her family as a homemaker while also working in a bank. As a result, she has neglected her personal appearances as well and has developed much obesity. One day, however, she meets her childhood friend, Mallika Raje Pradhan (Kishori Shahane), an upper-class independent woman, who challenges her to lose a few pounds of weight and become fit just like her. The question is whether Jui will accept Mallika's challenge and make the impossible possible as her love for food wins over her determination to lose weight every time which forms the central part of the story.
