"Arranged Marriage" centers on Aryan Khan in the aftermath of a public scandal. Faced with intense media scrutiny and pressure to stabilize his image, his parents, Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan, propose an arranged marriage as the ultimate measure to anchor him and protect the family legacy.
Aryan, tired of fighting, agrees but demands the right to choose his own bride. His surprising choice is Y/N, an upper-middle-class woman with absolutely no ties to the Bollywood industry. Aryan has observed her quietly for years in cafés and clubs-a grounded, intelligent commerce student running her own NGO-and recognizes her as the anchor he needs.
The story culminates with the powerful Khan family initiating highly discreet, formal requests to Y/N's unsuspecting parents, setting the stage for a life neither Aryan nor Y/N had anticipated. The narrative explores themes of image management, tradition, and finding genuine connection amidst overwhelming public pressure.
