In a future India, Shalini juggles the responsibilities of being a new bride and dealing with a new woman at work, one who doesn't have the chip that protects her from men who make advances.
Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)
Pro: The chip makes for an interesting plot device.
Con: We see the gross unfairness of the chip when Shalini delivers a stunning shock to a boy who only looked at her and we learn that he would have been arrested for the contact if she hadn't cancelled it. So in a society that is so overbalanced in favor of women, it's impossible to believe that working women aren't allowed to have children. (Or, more accurately, must choose between having a family or having a career.)
