Short stories on various ideas...

focuses on the Abhimanyu Raheja track I doubt we'll get proper Rikara but this my take on it. The demon's of her past, often knocked her door but she being the dauntless always managed to keep them at bay. No she wasn't a victim she was a survivor, she had survived battles of course she had battle scars. But she wore them with pride they were her pride. Which told her that she was a victor. A victor of life. But now with her freshly added wounds it seemed impossible to fight, impossible to hold on to the people she loved. Only thing that had intoxicated her heart was fear, fear of losing her sanity, fear of fading into oblivion. But there in that abyss of misery and agony she heard a voice calling out- "please stay with me. Everything's gonna be alright , trust me ."

it's my frustration on the Vanwass track..( Rikara centric) Home is where the heart is goes the age old saying. But what happens when you bait everything you've while searching for a home with the never ending supply of love you've within you, but fail miserably in finding a home. A heart where you belong And you contemplate is it worth the try? Is it worth all the effort? Hiraeth.. ain't it... A seemingly low pain , an emptiness in one's heart. Is the hope of a home where you belong just an illusion or not? 😊 for more check the prologue.

This revolves around Ri's Sharad scenario. cause' I wasn't pretty happy with the execution.. Love ain't the word beautiful. Doesn't it send jitters down you? It comes in all forms . Not necessarily the boy meets the girl. Love persists in all forms. Father-in-law's, brother- sister yada yada. But every love given to you had a reason behind though not latent. Everyone is bound to love you because of a bond but there's one love which has no bond. That between a man and woman . It just a pure bond not that the others aren't, but the fact that this love had no obligations like others. No reason for love , it just a mere feeling that grows on and on. But the journey of love ain't easy as the world knows. But love remains. Love ain't all about claiming, it includes a lot of other things. And at times you have stand for the person whom you love , against the other people you love for reasons know to you. For more read the story 😊

Hey guys! My name is Meghal and I love writing stories on RiKara from Ishqbaaaz!!! I was always a Shivika fan (and still am to an extent) when I started watching Ishqbaaaz. Never had I ever thought that Omkara was hero material or that his love story would be worth watching. So, when DBO came out, I royally ignored it and remained in Shivika land. But, then during the Shivika separation following the Veer track, I began to find the episodes really boring and depressing. So, on an impulse I searched up Dil Boley Oberoi on Hotstar and watched the first episode, curious to see what had exactly transpired between Om and Gauri and what was their love story. And I was hit with the full force of the RiKara magic unprepared! What attracted me the most was that their love was based on friendship. Omkara became that sexy hot guy with a long flowing mane of hair, radically different from the way I saw him in Ishqbaaaz and Gauri was the cutest chirayya I had ever seen as Chulbul. DBO will still remain my favorite phase of the Rikara relationship because it is there that I got to see and explore their relationship. In Ishqbaaaz, there have had their ups and downs in terms of screen presence and story, but no matter what, Dil Boley RiKara!TongueHeart I am sure many would agree with me when I say that a lot of aspects of Om and Gauri's relationship has never been explored like their past, their misunderstandings, their compatibility, Om's repentance, their life as a married couple. Like any fan, I would have loved to see these scenes on TV, but since that isn't possible (hope it happens in the Redux though) I have settled for the next best thing : One Shot stories on my babiesHeart So, here is a list of my OS collection! Some OS are continuations of the storyline on the show and some are fresh concepts with altered characters, so take your pick! I have tried something new with each one of them and I hope you will enjoy reading them just as much as I loved writing them!
