Betrayed on the bed that was meant to be theirs, Arnav Singh Raizada walks out of his own life and vanishes into the night. No goodbye. No corpse. Just silence. Three years later the fashion world trembles at a single set of initials: ASR. A man without a public face. A verdict without appeal. Cross him and you don't lose money; you lose the right to exist. Yet even monsters have a weakness. She appears like a quiet sin-soft voice, fearless eyes, the only living soul who dares to touch the burn scars on his heart. One look at her and the beast inside him forgets how to breathe. But the wife who laughed at his name is still legally his, still venomous, still starving for the empire he now owns. And when her jealousy fixes on the girl who holds ASR's last shred of humanity, hell is granted permission to open. His wife wanted royalty. She's about to discover what it costs when the king comes home wearing blood instead of mercy. He will peel her world apart, layer by slow layer, until she begs for the poverty she once mocked. And through every scream, every headline, and ruin, only one question will remain: When the fire finally dies, will there be anything left of Arnav Singh Raizada... or only the ashes that still burn for her? Welcome to the story of Arnav Singh Raizada and Khushi Kumari Gupta.

"Where have you been?" He asked her calmly but sternly Silence. She said nothing. "I'm asking you," he repeated, louder now-. She still didn't answer, but turned to leave, the sting of disappointment gripping her throat. But before she could take a step, he grabbed her wrist. "Where do you think you're going?" he snapped, voice taut with frustration. In one swift motion, he pulled her back and pinned her gently but firmly against the wall. The air crackled around them. "Why are you behaving like this?" he demanded, his eyes boring into hers. "Leave me!" she shot back, her voice sharp, cracking. "What's wrong with you?"His patience snapped. "why!" he shouted. "You've been avoiding me, shutting me out, walking around like a ghost! When I ask you-you push me away! Why, Sona? What did I do?" Her chest heaved. Tears welled in her eyes. His grip loosened slightly, but his gaze never faltered. "You want to know?" she hissed, eyes wild with pain. "You really want to know what's wrong with me?" "Yes!" he shouted back, breathless, helpless. She shoved him back. "I love you, Adharv sir !" Her voice echoed like thunder through the room. "That's what's wrong with me. That's what's killing me."she run away from there

Sometimes to live is the most courageous thing to do. Just live. Not fighting, not winning, just living. I have always taken that just as a quote but today I figured out the reality behind this simple sentence as I stand bereft of my love who sought someone else. ____________________________ Love is blind, they say, and in the case of Khushi Gupta, love had blinded her to find the courage to live through the heartbreak and the agony which her love had put her through. Follow Khushi Gupta in her journey to find her true love when the man she had trusted with her everything had turned his back to her and a stranger tethers her soul to the land of mortals; a stranger who shares the name of the one who had sinned against her- Arnav. Will his name stop her from naming her feelings or accepting his concern or will true love win amidst the darkness?

A romantic thriller that has everything volatile. On a dark night in the city of Cardiff, UK, Arnav is dealing with undiscovered demons of his own, when he accidentally bumps into a drenched in blood Khushi. Panic turns into shock when she reveals she has murdered somebody. A love-story that is passionate but wicked, The Sinner brings forth ulterior motives, unpredictability, and intense love in boundless shades.

Arranged marriage was an age-old story that Khushi, the youngest of the infamous Gupta family, who revolutionized and dominated the trading market for generations, knew well. For it was the only thing she heard growing up. But that neither prepared her nor comforted her as she got ready that morning. It was an important day, a day where she would trade her surname for a new one, her silence for a new chance, her respect for a new hope, her life for another. It was a day of contracts, both new and old. As she hid behind the traditional red shawl, knowing that the whole world would be watching her, waiting to pounce, she wondered why her mother never told her about any of the good marriages. The ones that worked out. The ones that had hope. The ones that had love. Probably because they don't exist, Khushi thought to herself. Only, destiny had believed otherwise. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a stand alone story that has no connection with the original show, Iss Pyar Ko Kya Naam Doon, except for the names of the lead characters.
