In the vibrant heart of modern Mumbai, “Shaina” follows the life of a spirited young woman navigating the complexities of love, ambition, and identity. Shaina Khan, a twenty-something fashion designer with dreams as bold as her designs, struggles to make a name for herself in an industry dominated by tradition and hierarchical norms.
