And so, they take to heart the advice offered by Jess’ best friend Tony (Ameet Chana): “What your parents don’t know won’t hurt them.” Their parents can’t understand, being from another time and place. They’ve grown up crossing cultural borders on a daily basis, and see such negotiations - and deceits - as nothing special. The sisters agree not to tell on one another it’s not a crisis they spend much time discussing, but a routine practice, a way to get along in a world where expectations and desires invariably conflict. And, she has her own secret: she and her beau have been enjoying habitual, if rushed, trysts in his car. Pinky, however, is also not adhering exactly to parental expectations and drawing from her immediate environment. This is the plan already in place for Jess’ older sister Pinky (Archie Panjabi), who is engaged to marry within weeks. They have other plans for her, that she’ll complete school, learn to prepare a full Punjabi dinner, and marry a proper Indian suitor. She takes every opportunity she can to play, usually in the park near her home in a London suburb, away from her parents’ watchful gaze. “Nobody can bend it like Beckham,” she beams, referring to his extraordinary ability to warp space in order to get the ball to the goal.

Her bedroom is a veritable shrine to the Manchester United star.
