Ratna (Tillotama Shome) works as a live-in maid at the home of Ashwin (Vivek Gomber), an aspiring writer from New York, who has to give up his dreams to care for his family in Mumbai after his brother passes away. An unlikely friendship develops between the two as Ratna lends him emotional support to get over his failed marriage and career dreams. He too encourages and supports Ratna in her dream to become a fashion designer. 

The film is a sensitive exploration of the barriers created by class, society, and restricted mentalities, which do not let the free-thinking Ashwin and Ratna, who is deeply conscious of her place in life, act upon their growing love for each other. 

It is only when Ratna and Ashwin are separated by circumstances that they realise the true depth of their love for each other, a depth that enables them to break the shackles of society and find each other forever. 

Sir streams on Netflix from 9 th January 2021
