The love blossomed for this couple in the first call, at least for the guy. He was working at a bank and received a call from a girl. It was a wrong number, but the guy was eager to find who it was. He couldn't stop thinking about her and about 2 weeks later, he called her again.
They began their phone conversations daily, however, after a month, the girl didn't want him to call. When he sought for an explanation, she revealed that her face was burnt. He asked, ‘So what?’ and she was worried her face would scare him away.
The first time he saw her, he agreed he was scared. But, something about her smile made him realise she was the one for him. "I went to her house and saw her for the first time. I won’t act like a hero and say it didn’t affect me. It did. I was afraid at first, but then I saw her smile... I realised that there was no one else I could marry."

As an acid attack victim, she found love with him and they are blessed with a cute baby. She's working at Acid Survivors Saahas Foundation now.

"People warned me with ‘how will you manage?’, ‘How will you show off your new bride?’ I just wanted them to let love be, so I simply smiled, because none of it mattered–it was her and me."
