Staying True mirrors the struggle in the life of Paragi, an enthusiastic woman who has dreams of becoming an IAS officer. However, she must find a way to do this while her husband and his family constantly try to put her down.

Staying True Zee World full story
The story begins with the introduction of a bubbly girl Paragi (played by Akshita) who is gearing up for her sister’s sangeet. But it is a big day for Paragi as amid the celebrations, she is looking forward to fulfilling her dream of applying for the UPSC exams. However, things aren’t as easy as they appear to be in the beginning.
While Paragi appears to be hardworking and determined to fulfill her and her late father’s wish of becoming an IAS officer, her badi maa Chanda (played by Richa) isn’t happy with her aspirations.
In fact, Chanda and her children dislike Paragi and frequently see her being exploited for household duties. Notwithstanding, it was Paragi’s bade father who was his greatest help and maintained that she should satisfy her fantasy about turning into an IAS official. And just as Paragi is about to submit her UPSC form to begin the process of achieving her goal, a new twist comes her way.
Will society crush her aspirations or will she be able to fulfill her dream?
The first episode successfully establishes a connection with the audience and begins on a powerfully emotional note. Richa will make you fall in love with her negative character of a mean aunt, and Akshita has won hearts by playing the bubbly girl with high aspirations. She has left her mark even in the first episode.
Since the story seems relatable, it will be interesting to see if the creators are able to keep the plot going in the next episodes or if it just turns into a typical family drama.
The conservative Indian society and male dominance, in general, are highlighted in Staying True.
The series features Akshita Mudgal, Hitesh Bharadwaj, Richa Bhattacharya, and others.
