Vivi (Eva Bourne) is a woman who works at a data-driven matchmaking app. When she discovers their success rates are low, she hires Indian matchmaker Raina (Rekha Sharma,“Battlestar Galactica”) to help improve their numbers. But, there’s a catch. Raina wants to help Vivi find love, and Vivi can use what she learns to help her company. As their matchmaking journey begins, Vivi meets Raina’s son, Bhumesh (Rushi Kota). This leads her to question whether finding love is something one must take control of or allow to happen on its own.
