Do Miracles Really Happen? Sixteen-year-old Trisha is hugely embarrassed by her hip mom who rides around on a monster motorbike called Smelly Beast. But along with her exuberant little sister, Shivi, they make for a quirky threesome, as Trisha adjusts to a new school, explores her talent for singing and falls head over heels for Akshay. Trisha's happy-go-lucky world suddenly comes crashing down when a fatal illness befalls her mother. She struggles to make the transition from a care free teenager to a responsible adult, hoping that some miracle will magically set things right. Poignant and deeply sensitive, Miracles is a heart-warming coming-of age story of a feisty young girl's struggle against her fate.
