There’s Something about Sweetie

Sandhya Menon

Sweetie’s traditional Indian parents refuse an arranged date because they believe she is too heavy, but Sweetie has plans of her own. Elsewhere, a boy is recovering after his girlfriend ends their relationship. His parents are convinced that they can find him a more suitable match. The story brings family expectations, body-based judgment, and the aftermath of a breakup into a romance shaped by competing ideas about who should choose a partner.
