Set amidst the elite circles of Mumbai and Delhi, Paro: Dreams of Passion follows the enigmatic protagonist as she navigates a labyrinth of desire, ambition and betrayal. Through the sharp and observant eyes of Priya, a keen diarist and confidence, we witness Paro’s magnetic allure and the casts of characters drawn into her orbit, each one ensnared by her charm and complexity.
