The grand hall of the royal hotel was a vision of vibrant colors, adorned with marigold flowers, shimmering lights, and traditional Indian motifs. The scent of jasmine filled the air, and the soft sound of flutes and tablas echoed through the space, creating an atmosphere of love and joy. It was a day unlike any other—three weddings, three couples, bound by love and destiny.
Kartik and Sanaya, Aarav and Saanjh, and Vivaan and Meera were all about to embark on a journey together. Friends, family, and well-wishers filled the seats, the excitement palpable. The three grooms stood side by side, dressed in their sherwanis, looking resplendent. Each had a unique look of happiness etched on his face, yet their stories, though intertwined, held their own journeys.
Kartik adjusted his embroidered safa and looked over at Aarav and Vivaan. “You guys ready for this?” he asked, his voice tinged with nervous energy.
Aarav chuckled, his hazel eyes gleaming with mischief. “I’ve negotiated mergers with tougher stakes than this, but yeah… I’m ready.”
Vivaan, always the quieter one, smiled at his brothers, his grey-hazel eyes soft with emotion. “It’s not a business deal, Aarav. This is the start of forever.”
“Forever sounds good,” Kartik said, taking a deep breath. “Especially with Sanaya.”
“And Saanjh,” Aarav added, a warmth filling his voice as he thought about his bride.
Meera’s face flashed in Vivaan’s mind, her laughter, her courage, and how she had stood by him through everything. “Forever with Meera... that's all I've ever wanted.”

On the other side of the hall, the brides were a vision of grace. Sanaya, Saanjh, and Meera were each adorned in traditional bridal lehengas, their jewelry glittering as the light reflected off them. The anticipation of the moment swirled in the air.
“I still can’t believe we’re getting married on the same day!” Sanaya exclaimed, her smile radiant as she looked at Saanjh and Meera.
Saanjh laughed softly. “I know, it feels surreal, but somehow, it makes sense. We’ve all been through so much together. And now, we get to share this moment.”
Meera, ever the practical one, adjusted her dupatta and said with a grin, “Well, at least this way, we’re making sure these boys can’t back out!”
The three women laughed, their excitement bubbling over.
As the priests called for the grooms, the brides made their grand entrance. The guests rose to their feet, eyes filled with admiration as they walked down the aisle, flanked by family members. The air was electric with love, and each step they took brought them closer to a new beginning.

The sacred fire flickered in the center of the mandap as Kartik, Aarav, and Vivaan stood with their brides, ready to begin the ceremonies. The priest chanted the mantras, the ancient Sanskrit verses weaving blessings and promises into the very air they breathed.
Kartik took Sanaya’s hand, his voice steady but filled with emotion. “Sanaya, I promise to love you through all of life’s ups and downs, to be your strength and your partner in every step we take.”
Sanaya, her eyes sparkling with unshed tears, whispered, “I promise the same, Kartik. I will stand by you, no matter what.”
Aarav turned to Saanjh, his heart full. “Saanjh, I spent too many years without you, but I promise you this—I will never let you go again. You are my heart, my home.”
Saanjh smiled softly, her voice breaking with emotion. “Aarav, I’ve always known we were meant to be. No matter how far we went, we always found our way back to each other. I promise to love you with all that I am.”
Vivaan, the last to speak, gazed at Meera, who had stood by him through so many trials. “Meera, you are the light in my life. I don’t need to be a doctor to know that my heart beats for you. I promise to be your partner, your protector, and your friend for the rest of my life.”
Meera smiled, her heart full. “Vivaan, I’ve always known that we were written in the stars. I promise to love you through every storm, and to share every joy with you.”
The moment was thick with emotion, as the couples made their sacred vows. With every round around the fire, the promises became more real, binding them in ways that words alone could never fully capture.

After the ceremonies, the hall exploded in celebration. Music filled the air, and laughter echoed from every corner. The couples were surrounded by family and friends, dancing, smiling, and embracing the joy of the moment.
Kabir Mittal, who had tried so hard to tear these couples apart, fumed in a distant corner, his plan thwarted by the love that surrounded Aarav, Kartik, and Vivaan. His scowl deepened as he watched the three grooms laughing with their brides, victorious in love and life.
But none of them cared about Kabir anymore. In that moment, only the love they shared mattered.

Later in the night, after the celebrations had died down, Aarav, Kartik, and Vivaan found themselves standing together, their brides nearby, talking and laughing with each other.
“We did it,” Kartik said, clapping Aarav on the back. “All of us.”
Aarav smiled, glancing at Saanjh, who was laughing at something Sanaya had said. “Yeah, we did.”
Vivaan, always the thoughtful one, looked at his brothers. “It feels surreal, doesn’t it? To be here, after everything we’ve been through.”
Aarav nodded, his eyes softening. “But that’s the thing, Vivaan. It’s because of everything we’ve been through that this moment feels so right. We fought for this—for them.”
Kartik raised his glass, grinning. “To us. To brotherhood. And to the women who make our lives worth living.”
Vivaan and Aarav raised their glasses in return, their hearts full as they toasted to the future, surrounded by love, family, and the promises they had made.
In that moment, nothing else mattered. The battles they had fought, the heartbreaks they had endured, all of it had led to this—three hearts, three vows, and a future they would build together.
The stars shone brightly above them, as if they too were celebrating the union of souls, bound together in love and destiny.
