After teenage Maya is caught in a sexually compromising position, her mom moves the family back to India so Maya can learn proper discipline. Years later, she returns to the US to find funding for her teen-focused app, and gets a job as a substitute high school teacher so she can research her target demo. But when the principal assigns her to teach sex ed, Maya--who's still a virgin--sets out on a quest with her best friend to make up for the high school experience she lost out on.

Proma Khosla indieWire The gags are fun, but like everything else they feel unfinished -- the seed of a full joke that will leave you wanting more. There are laughs aplenty, and Singh is completely at ease in a starring role, selling the material even in its weaker moments. Rated: C+ Mar 15, 2024 Full Review Angie Han The Hollywood Reporter The comedy never quite settles into a comfortable rhythm, and eventually backs itself into a corner so far away from any recognizable reality that it threatens to undermine the very message it wants to send. Mar 14, 2024 Full Review Peter Debruge Variety “Doin’ It” wants to preach sex positivity, but feels stuck in the immature, shock-comedy mode of “American Pie” and early Farrelly brothers movies. Mar 14, 2024 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Left me in the mood to see another film. Rated: C+ Apr 29, 2024 Full Review Stephen Saito Moveable Fest Less edgy than most of its ilk but pushing the envelope in an entirely different way, “Doin' It” is in on a bigger joke of how pushing honest conversations about sex away has had a damaging effect on the culture as a whole. Mar 19, 2024 Full Review Siddhant Adlakha JoySauce.com Mostly straightforward in its tale of delayed coming-of-age, but ends up centering surprisingly brazen politics, alongside refreshingly frank depictions of not just sex and sexuality, but the effects of shame as experienced by Asian communities.
