Dimple is not a traditional Indian girl. She is focussed on achieving the career of her dreams. Her future does not involve an arranged marriage much to the disappointment of her parents. So when her parents agree that she may attend Insomnia Con at San Francisco State University before she starts her Freshman year at Stanford, Dimple feels maybe her parents are finally starting to get her. That’s until some strange but good-looking Indian young man calls her his future bride at Starbuck’s near campus. Pouring her drink on him and fleeing the Starbucks, let him know she wasn’t interested. Rishi Patel is confused. The picture he has in his pocket matches the girl he just spotted at the Starbucks. That was definitely Dimple Shah, daughter of his parents’ friends. The young lady his parents have arranged for him to marry. They were to meet at Insomnia Con before Rishi heads off to MIT. Dimple’s parents, however, have not informed her of this arrangement. It is their hope that the two will make a connection at Insomnia Con, and Dimple will change her mind about marriage. But Dimple is not a traditional Indian girl.
