SynopsisSet in contemporary south Delhi, Polite Society takes us through the escapades of its matchmaker heroine, Ania Khurana-beautiful, clever, well intentioned and more than a little bored. Even as she sets up her spinster aunt and best friend with the men who will forward their social cause, her sometimes unwittingly unkind quest to bring order to society takes her to the frontiers of the new world-when it comes up against those who want an in into the world of Delhi's super rich. Through art fairs, writing residencies abroad, interviews with celebrity politicians, mega parties and farmhouse dos, we come to see the reality behind an ornate facade.
