Synopsis 
Aditi, who has grown up in the shadow of her brother who was often sidelined earlier due to social norms and restrictions for a typical Indian girl. Meanwhile, Aditi initially wanted to be a fashion designer but her father wanted her to study medicine and become doctor. Aditi makes a challenge to his elder brother Aakash which eventually is going to decide the future pathway of his life as Aditi bets if she wins against him in the gully cricket tournament, Akash has to obey his father's wish of attending regular corporate job interviews thereby putting his cricket dream away. Initially, Akash got the green light from his father who encouraged him to take up the sport from childhood but later opposed it as he gave up the hope that his son wouldn't be better if he chooses to stick with gully cricket and forced Akash to attend job interviews. Akash clearly had one goal in his life which was to play for Indian cricket team one day.

Hence the challenge is set to be a make or break moment for Akash and he accepts to play against his sister in the gully cricket tournament, with perspective-altering results. Aditi somehow manages to assemble a team of rookies and new fresh faces to battle in the gully cricket league known as Underarm Premier League (UPL) against her brother. Aditi even pulls one of his brother's former teammates to form her team and she names her team as Kacchey Limbu. Initially Kacchey Limbu team looked clueless and looked thin on paper but eventually became a competent team which gave a run for its money to other teams in the league.
