Chhatriwali follows the story of Sanya (Rakul Preet Singh), a chemistry teacher in a small Indian town who faces the challenges of societal taboos surrounding contraception and safe sex. Frustrated by the lack of awareness among her students and the community, Sanya becomes an unlikely advocate for male contraceptives, particularly condoms. When she meets the charming but carefree Rohan (Sumeet Vyas), their initial romantic connection deepens, but she quickly realizes the importance of discussing sexual health. Sanya’s efforts to educate the community spark resistance from traditionalists and create tension within her relationships, particularly with her family and friends. With humor and heartfelt moments, the film highlights Sanya's journey as she navigates personal and societal challenges. Through engaging conversations and clever scenarios, she aims to break the stigma around male contraception. The story intertwines romance and social commentary, culminating in a transformative impact on the town's attitudes toward safe sex. As the community slowly begins to embrace change, Sanya's efforts demonstrate the importance of open dialogue and education in shaping a healthier future for all.
