What if Arnav had kissed Khushi that Diwali night- only to still break her heart by choosing Lavanya? What if Shyam got drunk one night and tried to cross a line? What if a now single Arnav intervenes, taking Khushi to his farmhouse for comfort? But what if their families find them one morning and they find a scene that speaks of scandal- a disheveled Khushi in Arnav's clothes, his arms wrapped around her as they sleep... With accusations flying and trauma lingering, Arnav vows to protect her in the only way he can...by marrying her in secret. And amidst the chaos, can love finally find its way between them?

It was a village where no outsiders could enter, especially with bad intentions, but HE survived, even though he was from the REFORM SCHOOL. Why was he in the reform school? Why did he go to the village? How did he survive?

He was a devoted son, always prioritizing his mother's feelings and seeking her approval in every decision he made. However, life had other plans, leading him to take the bold step of getting married without her consent. Now, faced with the challenges of navigating his new life and relationship with his mother, he must find a way to balance love and family.

What if there was no Payash romance track and Shyam's reality had not come out in front of Khushi and the Guptas?

This story starts after Shyam is thrown out of Shantivan and Anjali tries to abort her child, and everyone blames Khushi. Let's see what will happen when Khushi had enough of everything and everyone.

Raised in a small, traditional town, Khushi Kumari Gupta's world is turned upside down when she crosses paths with the enigmatic Arnav Singh Raizada. A simple twist of fate pulls them into a tangled web of rumors, forcing them into a relationship neither saw coming. Arnav, a man who thrives on control, is unprepared for the storm that is Khushi - a woman of faith, heart, and determination. As their worlds collide, Khushi is thrust into a life under the unforgiving glare of the public eye, bringing about a fierce protectiveness in Arnav that surprises even him. In a story that blends passion, conflict, and the power of love, Iqraar explores the sparks that fly when two very different worlds collide. This is a fanfiction based on Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon? set in an alternate universe. Story, concept and everything else except the characters' names belong to me. That said, I do like to include elements and references from the show here and there and in those cases complete credit to the makers. Please do not copy. It would really hurt to see this work elsewhere without my knowledge.

What if Shyam was never married to Anjali and his obsession with Khushi was twice fold? In a story where Anjali married an honest man and the Guptas are not who they seem to be, how will the events turn out differently from the show? Why is Payal vehemently against her own family? How do the Guptas actually know Shyam? A rewrite of Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon with a different villain, better communication but the same cherished nok-jhoks of our beloved couple

Hey Guys, Since I don't like posting notes at the end of my chapters and Wattpad confuses my readers by counting Notes posts as chapters, I have created this space to keep you all abreast of all the news on my end. We can interact here too. Also, you can freely tell me what you think of my absences, while keeping your comments on the story anger-free. I will post videos and song lists of my stories here too. Enjoy :) Thank you Love ya!!

A love story of simple Man and Girl.

My Arnavji who once claimed me as his world has even forgotten my existence in his life.... Once he had eyes only for me but now those same eyes don't spare even a glance towards me... There was a time when he went against his own family for my self respect but now even the outsiders insult me infront of him & he is not bothered at all... There was a time he couldn't keep his hands off of me but now he has no interest in me.... "I love you" from him is a thing of past... "I don't care, I don't believe you" from him is today's reality... My perfect fairytale life has once again turned upside down... Once it was his dii & now its his ex girlfriend & her son due to whom I'm again sidelined.... I'm again taken for granted.... I'm again alone amidst whole family as his ex girlfriend & her son have become an integral part of the family or say they have successfully replaced me in the family & his life too.... But for me he is still my world... I still love him to the moon & back & will continue loving him till my last breath... But enough is enough... No more putting my self respect at stake in the name of love... No more trying to prove my innocence when there is no trust in his eyes for me... No more running behind him for his one look, one touch.... No more yearning for him.... No more waiting for him... It's high time I take a stand for myself.... It's high time I fulfill my wishes.... Its high time I do what makes me happy without bothering for others.... Its high time I keep myself above all... It's high time I look for my own happiness.... So here's Khushi finding her happiness... KHUSHI KI KHUSHI.... Book cover credit goes to @Ninishta_B
