The premise

Here’s the bit.

Beena phones Meena with news that a man has asked her out. Meena first doubts that the suitor exists, then picks apart the encounter and insists that her friend should have rejected him. Beena's account of their meeting and first kiss only prompts more warnings, prejudices and wildly personal advice. Meena turns their usual pose of indifference toward men into a test of loyalty between friends. Her principles become much less convincing when Beena mentions a romantic opportunity for her too, sending Meena racing out of the house.

Highly quotable.

Yes, sorry, I just fainted for a second.

If you want to betray the sisterhood, that is up to you.
