[Wattys Shortlist - 2025] Hiral Kashyap is a homemaker - conventional and burning, fragile yet unflinching, just another woman smiling through the burns and life. Riddhan Nanda is a dangerous man, a widower - the prime suspect in his wife's murder. A lawyer by profession, he has always straddled the blurred line between power and lies. Bitter by nature and trapped in the chains of patriarchy, he speaks louder than his beliefs. When destiny strikes, secrets unfold, hope shatters, and hearts wither. Twisted and unhinged, Riddhan desires her for a motive, and he won't stop until she gives in. Timid and scared, Hiral picks up the battle, for she is done being treated as dirt and a burden. Passion sparks while enmity intensifies, as they are forced to wrestle for control over their lives, future, past, and present. Join Hiral as she embarks on her journey to find peace and discovers that courage is beyond defeat and love is beyond heart. Flowers are beyond fragrance while life is nothing without a start.

Stoic and at peace, Divit Saxena weaves threads of patience, believing in the power of silence, when Avanti Bisht, a whirlwind of chaos, enters his life, injecting vibrant shades into his existence and changing his perspective for the better. As Avanti reveals her true self, Divit grapples with the complexities entangling his heart. Will they find solace in each other or crumble beneath the weight of their shattered expectations? Will Avanti and Divit rise above their shattered dreams and forge a new path together? Or will they succumb to the forces that threaten to tear them apart? __________________ She is the chaos of raindrops caressing the arid land. He is the tranquillity of the night's hushed silence. She holds beauty beneath the ugliest scars. He embodies the melancholy that grips a wilting rose. They meet. They survive.
