This story follows Y/N Cruise, the young, determined head of Tom Cruise Productions, and Aryan Khan, the intellectual heir revolutionizing Red Chillies Entertainment. To finalize a massive, history-making merger between Hollywood and Bollywood, their powerful fathers force them into an arranged marriage.
Furious at being treated as pawns in a corporate game, Y/N and Aryan form a secret, pragmatic alliance: they will maintain a strictly professional partnership behind closed doors. Their agreement is governed by the "Functional Partnership Mandate," which explicitly bans emotional vulnerability and mandates separate lives, even as they perform the role of a passionately committed couple for the global media.
As they navigate the high-stakes world of international film production, shared residences, and endless red carpets, their calculated public performance begins to chip away at their professional boundaries, testing their iron-clad contract and leading to an inevitable, dangerous question: What happens when the fake marriage starts feeling real?
