- In 1999, Karenjit starts entering local beauty contests. She wins one local competition and gets a business card from a casting agent Ted Sharp at JS Entertainment Pvt Ltd. This was her intro to the world of porn.
Back to the 2016 Mumbai interview. Anupam asks Karenjit if her family was supportive of her move into porn.
Back in 1999 in LA. Karenjit is about to graduate and her mom is unhappy that she entered a modeling contest. Karenjit says that she has no interest in becoming a model and expresses her desire to become a pediatric nurse. Balwant calls her out on wanting to wear short skirts even in her professional life.
Karenjit is used to escaping from her bedroom window to attend later night parties. One night she decides to be honest with her parents and tells them that she will be back safely by late night. Karenjit says that Manveen has already seen her at a party last week and so the news will surely reach Balwant and Jaspal via Pammi shortly. So, Karenjit decided to be honest. Her mom is mortified, but her dad allows it. But her friends make fun of the fact that Karenjit has limited new clothes to wear. She was wearing the same dress that she wore to win the beauty pageant. Karenjit gets drunk with her friends. She is 16 and loses her virginity at a party to a random guy under pressure from her friends, who think she is a prude. Karenjit takes the guy in his car to an isolated spot on an under-construction bridge. They have sex in the back seat of his car. Karenjit enjoys the sex. The guy drops Karenjit back home in his mustang.
That same night she returns home late to find that her mother secretly drinks. She finds her in the garage, drinking alone and obviously hiding it from the others in the house. Balwant wants to smack Karenjit for coming home with a guy but ends up falling down flat on the floor. That night Jaspal tells Karenjit and Sundeep that Balwant is an alcoholic. Jaspal says that they hid it from the kids as they didn't want them to know that their mother is a closet drinker.
A few days later she visits the JS agency. She is offered a role to shoot an advert for a lingerie brand called "bare necessities". The money is $ 500. Karenjit refuses. But then, on the way back home, she sees her mom selling family jewelry at a pawn shop to get cash to buy liquor. Karenjit is angry at the hypocrisy of "Indian values" those judges everyone else but has no consequences for one's own actions
Her mom reveals that Jaspal has been fired from his job 2 weeks ago. Money is tight in the family. The parents have been hiding everything from the kids. Balwant gets $400 for her jewelry. Karenjit is worried and talks to Jaspal. Jaspal assures her not to worry and tells her that he will find another job. Karenjit gives him all the money she got from relatives on all the holidays. Jaspal is in tears.
