THE SON I COULDN'T LOVE
Genre: Real-Life Drama / Marriage Heartbreak / Grief / Fatherhood / Family Secrets / Emotional Suspense
Intimate, devastating, emotionally raw, guilt-ridden, suspenseful, ultimately bittersweet
HEARTBREAK-a husband loses the woman he loves while their baby survives, and his grief slowly turns the innocent child into a living reminder of everything he lost.
His wife died bringing their son into the world. For three years, he blamed the child-until he discovered what she had hidden from him before she died.
Thirty-three-year-old Aarav Malhotra believes he has everything he ever wanted: a loving marriage, a comfortable home in Greater Kailash, and a baby on the way with his wife, Naina.
Their son is supposed to complete their family.
Instead, the night he is born destroys it.
During labour, Naina suffers catastrophic bleeding. Doctors deliver their son, Kabir, alive, but despite desperate attempts to save her, Naina dies.
Aarav walks into the hospital expecting to become a father.
He walks out a widower carrying the child whose birth coincided with the death of the woman he loved most.
Everyone tells him Kabir is a miracle.
Aarav cannot see a miracle.
He sees the reason Naina is gone.
As Kabir grows, the resemblance to his mother becomes unbearable. Her eyes. Her smile. Even the way he sleeps.
Aarav provides for his son, but emotionally abandons him.
Grief needs somewhere to go, and sometimes the person we blame most is the person least responsible for what happened.
Can Aarav learn to love the son he associates with his wife's death before his grief permanently damages the child Naina gave everything to protect?
