I need a soul to rely on A shoulder to cry on A friend through the highs and the lows I'm not gonna make it alone~~~ . A girl who has been deprived of love all his 24 years of life is going to take a step toward a boy who is already broken. ISHANA CHAUHAN Ishana's soft heart has always been broken by her closed ones, first her chacha chachi then the man she was married to. She faced violence always, it was less with chacha chachi but crossed all the boundaries of inhumanity when her husband tormented her. She is suffering from ANDROPHOBIA (fear of men) now. After taking divorce from him, she is trying to live her life despite of all the demons she fight but a ray of hope incident in her cloudy life when her mama decide to marry her to RUDRAKSH SINGH SURYAWANSHI. Kunwar sa of Jodhpur, billionaire, cold, handsome and broken. He has his own demons to fight with. He was married to his college sweetheart, Gauri for two years, life was happy, he was the most expressive person with a pure heart. His smile can lit up any sad person. They both were expecting now, that too twins. But destiny played its part and Gauri died along with both twins during labour. This broke a soft soul to extent that he turned emotion less. His aura which was ones soft and welcoming was now cold and commanding. He never wanted to marry but his father's plea made him tie knot with Ishana. . . Will Ishana able to trust him ever with herself?? Will Rudraksh able to love again?? Will they both ever say to each other..... "Let me hold you CLOSER"

Hriday Sehgal × Aayat Chouhan "Ab var,vadhu ki maang mein sindoor bharenge"The Panditji said and Hriday took some sindoor with a silver coin and filled Aayat's maang with it. She closed her eyes as tears kept following down her eyes,she didn't even dared to look at him.His gaze were fixed on her though.Her face was covered with the veil again and he looked at the hawan kund. "Ab var mangalsutra pehanyenge"The Panditji said and Aayat felt the cold gold and black beaded chain around her neck which tied her with him for forever. "Vivah sampanna hua,aaj se aap dono pati patni huye"The Panditji announced and everyone cheered for the newlyweds. Tears kept pouring down her eyes while he kept staring at the fire which was lit in the hawan kund. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Hame laga aapke maa-papa aapko bata denge"He said in his defence. "Unhe sirf apni izzat bachani thi uss waqt"She said sadly. "Dekhiye hum jaante h yeh shadi bilkul bhi ideal conditions mein nhi hui h,aap chahti h toh iss rishte se bahar nikal sakti h,hum rokenge nhi"He said and she stared at him with wide eyes. "Agar divorce hi dena tha toh shadi hi kyu ki humse"She said angrily. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Aapki plate kaha h?"He asked and she stared at him in confusion for a moment. "Aap nhi khayengi hamare saath?"He asked and she didn't knew what to say to that? What if her in law's got offended?? "Hum baaki sabke saath kha lenge"She said and left. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ So fate has once again played it's game and tied these two souls forever to each other. Now the question is how did they met or one can say,why did they met?? She had a break down at the day of her marriage, He on the other hand is a broken soul. She prepared to marry the guy her parents choose for her,as her companion. He doesn't want a companion. She had expectations from her life. He has long back stopped expecting. Let's see if these two can sail through the sea of life?

She was terrified of touch-flinching at even the gentlest brush, retreating from warmth as if it could burn her. To her, touch had always meant pain, a reminder of wounds too deep to heal. She built walls, convinced that no one could ever reach her without breaking her apart. But then came him. His touch wasn't forceful; it wasn't something to fear. It was patient, steady-like a quiet promise that she was safe. And before she knew it, the arms she once feared became the home she never knew she needed.

Lotus: Her Blooming Love "Love isn't about claiming, it's about surrender. And healing begins where true love waits silently. Gauri Vishwakarma was born with fire in her aim and devotion in her heart. A joyful, talkative girl whose world revolved around archery, friendships, and the whispered prayers she shared with her eternal companion-Shri Krishna. She thought she understood love. At least, that's what her possessive boyfriend made her believe. But everything begins to change the moment she steps into Jamshedpur, chasing her dreams at the Tata Archery Academy. When her brother's best friend, Shiv Verma, a quiet, dark-skinned coach with eyes full of unspoken emotions, walks back into her life-everything that once seemed sure starts to unravel. What Gauri doesn't know is that Shiv has loved her since they were teenagers-since the first time he saw her lighting a diya in the Radha Krishna temple, talking to Kanha like He was really listening. She never noticed. But he never forgot. Now, fate brings them under the same roof, in the same training ground, with her heart confused and his love silent. Will her broken beliefs about love shatter under pressure, or bloom into something pure? Will she see the difference between control and care? And will Kanha guide her to a love that heals? A tender, slow-burn desi love story that celebrates faith, healing, and the kind of love that waits. Forever.

He has more to himself than he lets on, his brutal reality hidden under his façade, all of it after surviving a traumatic experience that is darker than his black custom suits and haunts him every day. He doesn't expect anything more from life, having seen enough, but life has plans for him, one that involves a specific woman who may or may not change him completely. The 26-year-old beauty, Aahana Kapoor, is the daughter of a billionaire but not your snobby, rich bitch, rather sweet, fierce, and loyal. In her heart, she knew she was destined to marry Atharva from the very first time she saw his picture before their arranged marriage. So, what will happen when she realizes Atharva has no desire for women and avoids them like a plague under any and every circumstance? Will she be able to penetrate her way into his heart and slip under his skin? [UNEDITED]
