Brief Summary
Between mothers and daughters lies a very special world. Follow the relationships of two very different generations of women with everything to learn from each other...
For decades, they've gathered together, dressed in saris and sweater sets, to share recipes, arguments, and laughter. They are the Hindi-Bindi Club, a nickname given by their American daughters to the mothers who left India to start life anew. Those daughters, now grown, are facing struggles of their own.
