The American Dream

Sonam is super excited! Her husband Raj, an IT professional, has† been posted in† the US of A on a project for his company. Together with their 2-year-old son, Rahul, they relocate to the States. Sonam has starry eyed dreams and ambitions about her new life in the US --- an A-list designer wardrobe, a huge mansion with a pool, Instagramming her life in the coolest and most spectacular parts of America and most of all† becoming a hotshot banker downtown, number crunching effortlessly on the phone, cracking complex financial deals while looking Gucci cool!


But, it isnít happening. And in her heart, Sonam yearns for India. However, Raj loves his work and their new life in the US. Return to India? No way! Meanwhile little Rahul just wants his parents to be together, happy like they used to be ...


Then, through an unexpected turn of events, suddenly all of Sonamís dreams are poised to come true. Investor meetings,† downtown office, a designer wardrobe - all of it can be hers - if she wants it. Now, Sonam is faced with some pretty tough decisions - and no, not which flavor of latte or mocha to order from Starbucks ...


The American Dream offers a hilarious, sometimes poignant look at the emotional roller coaster when one immigrates from their motherland to settle abroad.
