Amar is the youngest of three siblings and the only son in a traditional Indian Muslim family living in America. He struggles to meet his parents' expectations, contrasting sharply with his high-achieving older sister Hadia. He possesses a sensitive and creative nature, often seeking unconditional acceptance outside his immediate family. His return for the wedding marks his first contact with his relatives in three years.

She is the eldest sibling in the family, academically excellent and strong-willed. As a medical student who chooses her own husband, Hadia pushes the boundaries of her parents' traditional expectations. She shares a deep bond with Amar, though she occasionally harbors jealousy over the attention he receives.
