He is order. She is chaos. Arnav Singh Raizada's life is measured in profit margins and deadlines until Khushi Kumari Gupta threatens to dismantle his silent world one jingle at a time. She shouldn't belong in his sleek, perfectly ordered universe. And yet, he can't stop noticing her. This is a fanfiction based on Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon? set in an alternate universe.

Set in the late 18th century Rajasthan. Mysterious archeological treasures create trouble in the Gupta household in Rajgarh.

Khushi, a normal girl with a humble background moves in the elite circles of her college. All thanks to her best friend, Lavanya Kashyap, the most popular and rich girl in college. But will their friendship survive when Khushi crushes hard on La's magnetic and handsome boyfriend Arnav Singh Raizada?

Mumbai never waited for anyone. It roared, breathed, and swallowed people whole-dreamers, fighters, the broken and the brave. And on a humid July morning, as the city woke up to honking cars and hurried lives, Khushi Kumari Gupta stepped into it with a past heavier than her suitcase and a heart trained to survive quietly. Mumbai University's stone gates loomed in front of her-ancient, intimidating, and full of promises she wasn't sure she deserved. Two years, she reminded herself. Just two years of being normal. No bodyguards. No spotlight. No Arnav Singh Raizada. She adjusted the strap of her bag and exhaled slowly. "Masters in Psychology," she murmured, more to steady herself than to state a fact. Psychology-because she had spent her entire life understanding pain without anyone teaching her how.

In Patiala, where gossip rules and dreams of Amrikka abound, Khushi fights to build her dreams. Then Arnav Singh Raizada arrives-brooding, magnetic, impossible to ignore. Some passions aren't gentle-they burn, they consume... they become junoon.

Based on IPKKND Season 1. This story does not involve evil Shyam and his schemes, Arnav's cruelty (admit it, he was cruel). Khushi and her family are looking to build their lives afresh in Mumbai when destiny plots to bring them together again. They need to get over their distrust in each other and admit that they are "Destined For Each Other" Peek in for a look. The copyrights for the characters belong to the original creators.

Khushi Gupta had one goal for as far as she remembered - make her family proud. Youngest of two to working parents whose schedules often left her in the care of her elder brother; her standards were pretty set before she could walk. A compelling degree, respectable job and financial security - she worked hard to achieve those and some more, made sacrifices to get where she is now. Her only regret is that she shut her door when love knocked, pushed the one person that forced her to prioritize herself away to make her parents happy. But when life offers her a second chance to have it all, will she accept it or let her misplaced logic snatch it all away? Miguel Arnav Salazar hated moving across the world for a year, leaving a struggling father and toddler sister. Even more so, he hated the fact he was being forced to stay with the family who disowned his mother for choosing his father. What he didn't expect was to meet a feisty girl so different from others. Teasing her made his stay bearable, but the year soon turned into the best, the one he will never forget. Yet, the time has come for him to go back home - only, his love was mocked at when he shouted it out for the world to see. The price he paid? The very girl who taught him how to love, hope and forgive. It took him more than a decade to have it all again. Will he be selfish for once and fight for what he desires even if it meant fighting the very woman he loves? Or will he be as selfless in letting the woman he's been waiting for his whole life get away for reasons he neither understands nor appreciates? There is a little drama and heart break. But their biggest obstacle is their stubbornness. This is their story, of romance, of holding on and letting go - their journey to self discovery, love and ultimate happiness. __________ The names of some of the characters belong to "IPKKND", but the story, characters, events and relationships are author's.

Having grown up in an orthodox Indian family that takes pleasure in controlling the lives of every woman in their family, Arnav has sworn never to be like them.

He is willing to do all he can to have her. He is ready to break all the boundaries, go to any extent to be with her. Trapped between his love for her and the boundaries he's created for himself, what would he do to stick up to his Morals?

Ishq par zor nahin hain yeh woh aatish ghalib Jo lagaye na lage aur bujhaye na bane (One has no power over love, it is that flame which neither can be set alight nor extinguished once lit) What if Khushi was already an officer the night she met Arnav?
