Virgin Woman Diaries gives in to some over-the-top Gujju stereotypes but steers clear from the sexist ones. Kiara’s mother and warden come and go as the shrill voice of a conservative society, but they don’t get much bhaav in terms of screen time. But Kiara and her friend Shalini, the main female protagonists, are nothing like the stereotypical teenagers most shows settle for. They’re informed, driven, mad and very very real. Sure, you won’t ever spot a book in their hands. But when it comes to virginity, they know exactly who to lose it to.

They’re not sleeping around just for the heck of adventure and experimentation. They’re curious but sensitive and loyal. Oh, and they love their alcohol too. Amit on the other hand, still drinks milk and isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed. He’s a mama’s boy, but by the end of it, comes into his own.
