It's tradition to try to take the groom's shoes at many South Asian weddings—but as the youngest, Lulu will have to prove she can be as smart and capable as her cousins if she wants to win this game!

It's wedding day, and Lulu is finally old enough to have a plan of her own for winning the prize during joota chupai! In Lulu’s family, kids on the bride’s side of the family play a game: Take the groom’s shoes and hold on to them until he gives them a prize.

The only problem? Her older cousins have their own plan for the heist—and it doesn’t include her!

Lulu tries again and again to get in on the fun, but she always seems to be one step behind. Can she hold on to her confidence and determination long enough to keep at it, even when it means thinking outside the box?
