~𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝟏 𝐨𝐟 𝐀𝐛𝐡𝐢𝐍𝐢𝐭 𝐃𝐮𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲~ As far back as he remembers, Abhishek's been in love with his best friend. He has borne Shubman's undying love for Sara, then him flitting from girl to girl always with a smile on his face. What would he complain about?-he prefers men (or one man); his best friend prefers women. But the day he realizes Shubman's soulmate is Ishan...that day finally, a ten year long unrequited love shatters his heart completely. ~~~~~~~~~~~ At the same time, overwhelmed by the glamorous life of IPL, Nitish finds steadiness and warmth in someone who has played for their team for years. Because Abhishek Sharma is like sunshine...he tries to make everyone happy, always, wherever he is, and whatever he is feeling. ~~~~~~~~~~~ "I know a broken heart when I see one. But I can heal yours." ~~~~~~~~~~~ "Thanks, but no...you can't." ~~~~~~~~~~~ Or, Abhishek refuses to entertain the idea of getting over the love of his life, though he needs to so badly and Nitish knows he's the worst person for that job and can't help attempting it anyway.

When loss rattles Diya Gautam to her core, she pushes away two people she loves the most. Abhishek, who loved her so fervently that everyone thought they would end up married. At least that's what Ishan Kishan had thought. He thought he had done a pretty decent job, playing cupid for his sister. Ishan would happily trade his soul if it meant seeing Diya happy. And so three years later when Diya starts coming for the matches again, she makes both of them secretly shed tears. Witness the journey of Diya slowly be okay with finding joy, love and laughter, again.

The creator made them for each other, only to accidentally slip their souls into the wrong slot, a slot labelled, "dearest friend", sealing their fate for the next thousand years. Witness a journey through the course of history before the two were known to us as Shubman Gill and Ishan Kishan and the year the after effects of the mistake faded away.

Ishan thinks love isn't meant for people like him. Shubman never learned how to stop offering it. [the one where ishan's a prostitute in purani delhi and shubman just happens to be eating gol gappe at the right time]

Abhishek Sharma is a 25-year-old second grade teacher who's learned to live carefully and quietly. Pat Cummins is a 32-year-old cardiologist too busy fixing hearts to worry about his own. That is until a visit to his nephew's Career Day changes everything. Their first meeting is ordinary: a classroom introduction, a handshake, a polite smile. Any somehow, they just can't seem to forget each other.

~𝔟𝔬𝔬𝔨 𝔱𝔥𝔯𝔢𝔢 𝔬𝔣 𝔧𝔲𝔫𝔬𝔬𝔫 𝔰𝔢𝔯𝔦𝔢𝔰~ 🪻𝐌𝐔𝐍𝐓𝐀𝐙𝐈𝐑: Some hearts wait, even when they don't know why. She ran. Not to escape, but to find herself. Yumna left behind a world that didn't hear her silence and didn't understand her fears. A wedding meant to bind her felt more like a cage, so she chose freedom over expectations. He smiled. Not just to charm, but to heal. Ishan Kishan, the golden boy of Indian cricket, radiated warmth like the sun. His world was loud and chaotic, but he found peace in the quiet things, in the unspoken moments. Two souls, worlds apart, find themselves on an unexpected journey. But will the boy who's always chasing the next thrill have the patience to wait for a girl learning to find her voice? Can her silence teach him patience? Can his laughter show her trust?

~𝔟𝔬𝔬𝔨 𝔱𝔴𝔬 𝔬𝔣 𝔧𝔲𝔫𝔬𝔬𝔫 𝔰𝔢𝔯𝔦𝔢𝔰~ 🥀 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄 𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐃𝐈𝐂𝐓: He fell for her once; will she fall too? He saw her once at a wedding, and that was it- Shubman Gill, the rising cricket star, was hooked. Anjali Rathore, a smart and fierce lawyer, left an impression he couldn't shake, even without knowing her well. Years later, fate plays its wild card. Shubman finds himself tangled in a case, and guess who's assigned as his lawyer? Yep, Anjali. Now, amidst accusations and courtroom drama, sparks fly again, but with everything on the line, will they have a shot at something real? Or will destiny keep them just out of reach?
