Directed by Siddharth Malhotra, the 2010 film stars Bollywood divas Kareena Kapoor and Kajol, along with popular actor Arjun Rampal in the lead roles. The story of We Are Family follows the life of Maya (Kajol), a successful fashion designer who has dedicated her life to raising her three kids, Aleya (Aanchal Munjal), Ankush (Nominath Ginsburg), and Anjali (Diya Sonecha). Her world comes crashing down when she finds out that her husband, Aman (Arjun Rampal) is having an affair with Shreya Arora (Kareena Kapoor), a young and attractive single mother.

As Maya tries to come to terms with the betrayal and the end of her marriage, she is challenged to a new reality where she must share her kids' time and affection with Shreya.
