This is the story of Pihu. An ordinary girl with her extra ordinary love story with Rajveer who is the Yuvraj of the famous Koshal family of Kashi. The daughter of a priest who dreamt of the yuvraj from her childhood. Her every dreams were only filled with the dream of her Rajababu. She adored him and loved him when she was just 10. The main irony is she always flew away whenever she saw him in her way. Will Rajveer ever notice this girl? will Pihu's love story will ever get fulfilled? but she never wanted to fulfil her dream! She knew that he is the moon and she can never touch him. she can only see him and can adore him from far. That's why she kept no expectations. She knew only to love her Rajababu selflessly without asking anything in return.

Mallika wakes up weak and naked, dizzy mind filling doubts in her consciousness. Realising that her body has been subjected to actions that required her consent and yet the consent was never taken, she breaks down, wondering how this will affect her adoptive family's reputation. Until she finds a note inside a diary

" Do not be mistaken little flower, you are mine and mine alone. Any man who looks at you longer than three seconds will be dealt in a manner I find fitting. This is my kingdom and I run it the way I see it competent." Rana Arjun Singh Rajvanshi, the king of Rajasthan announced as he occupied his big, intimidating throne and I stood as far away from his as I possibly could and I shivered under his mocking gaze. " The last time I checked, I was a living human being and not a thing to be possessed Ranaji. You may be the king and own this kingdom and the will of people here but you most certainly don't own me. I will not submit and neither will I do what you want me to. This is my life and I should be the one who makes decisions for myself." I don't know where this undiscovered confidence was coming within me in front of him but I was giving my best to not let it slip away. All I heard was a laughter which oscillated in the otherwise empty throne room as he stood up on his feet and started to walk to where I was standing. His gaze, which was mocking me earlier had now turned stoic which rooted me to the spot I was standing at. I couldn't as much as attempt to run away. " You are only helping me, little one. I am not the one to back out from a challenge and when the incentive is as ravishing as you, how can I lose?" He asked as he stopped merely inches away from me and with the back of his hand, traced the single strand of hair which was framing my face right till my chin, his fingers still lingering. There was a solid 0.001% chance that I could have avoided this trouble named Rana Arjun Singh Rajvanshi but who was I kidding? I was a walking trouble magnet and what was 0.001% if not an over-expecting hope of something not happening? Rana Arjun Singh Rajvanshi takes Siya Dhar's world by storm when she steals his heart without even have the knowledge of doing so!

Story of a superstar who is madly in love with his costar. Story of a slum girl who is fighting everyday just for a living. What if they got stuck with each other for some purpose? What if they started to live under the same roof while hating each other. Hate is something which kept them together, what will happen if the feelings changed slowly, leading to something beautiful and ethereal.
