One house. Two strangers. Zero chill.
"You can keep your American cheeseburgers. I like my men medium rare and emotionally unavailable." - Khushi Singh
"She hates me. But I swear on her masala chai, I'm obsessed." - Zac Efron
Khushi is a proud desi girl with big dreams, bigger opinions, and zero tolerance for nonsense - especially from the white guy who just showed up at her doorstep claiming her house.
Zac Efron - yes, that Zac - is an actor on the run from scandal, sleep, and sanity. The only thing keeping him sane is the house he thought he rented... which now happens to be occupied by a very loud, very Indian girl named Khushi.
Thanks to a scamming broker and terrible timing, they're stuck living together for six months.
Six. Long. Months.
She wants peace.
He wants privacy.
But what they get instead?
Late-night arguments, emotional blackmail, cultural confusion, and maybe... a little bit of heart-thumping chaos they didn't see coming.
⸻
From chai to cheesecake, fire to flirting - can two total opposites survive living together... without accidentally falling for each other?
Welcome to the messiest, funniest, steamiest roommates-to-lovers tale on Wattpad.
