Episode 1
Ridhi
Many people from middle-class families, especially in traditional or pressure-filled environments, grow up being told to "be practical" instead of chasing dreams.
I come from a middle-class family where dreams and passions have no place—only survival matters. No matter how hard I try, it's never enough for my family.
Ridhi
At first, my father wanted a boy, since my uncle already had three daughters, and they hoped a son would carry on the family name. But instead, a girl was born—me, But my father never complained—he accepted me wholeheartedly as his daughter.

In the same hospital ward, where my mother lay unconscious after giving birth to me, there was a woman beside her who had just delivered a baby boy. She was in unbearable pain, unable to move even an inch.
