Plot
Bokul Kotha is the story of Bokul, who has been raised as a son. She grows up to be a tomboy, well versed in handling roles that are reserved for the boys. Bokul has short hair and feels comfortable wearing pants and shirts, unlike girls her age who obsess with their beauty. Bokul doesn’t want to waste her time on make –up and clothes. She is more interested to become her father’s support system. But a cruel twist in the tale comes in when her father passes away after which she is forced to take the reign of the family in her hands. Though Bokul is not interested in marriage, her mother and grandmother are always worried about what would happen in future when she would be married off. On the other hand, is Rishi, whose family does everything only after consulting the family guru, an astrologer. Rishi was to be married only if his natal chart matched the girl’s. Being a choosy person, Rishi has already rejected 40 women. As luck would have it, finally his natal charts match with Bokul’s charts. After much drama and confusion, the mismatched couple is married off. But Bokul is neither cut out as an ideal housewife nor is keen to learn the ways of the world as a married woman should.
