Shivansh Randhawa, a formidable force, a successful CEO whose commanding presence masks a tumultuous past marked by childhood trauma and betrayal. His arrogance and cold demeanor stem from deeply rooted scars and he harbors a cynical belief that women are driven by greed, making him dismissive and rude, especially towards those he perceives as insincere. Prarthana Malhotra, a gentle, naive girl with an unyielding spirit. An orphan who survives on her humble job as a chef in a small restaurant, her quiet strength is shadowed by the pain she carries, pain she endures in silence, hiding her wounds behind a shy, innocent exterior. Their life takes an unexpected turn when they find themselves entangled in a forced arranged marriage, a marriage arranged by him-Shivansh Randhawa. Why he married her forcefully? As their worlds collide, initial misunderstandings and deep-seated prejudices threaten to keep them apart. Yet, beneath the layers of hurt and skepticism, a fragile bond begins to form-one built on innocence, patience and the unspoken hope of healing. Through turbulent trials and moments of vulnerability, both Shivansh and Prarthana embark on a transformative journey-learning to confront their pasts, breaking down barriers and discovering that love, with all its imperfections, can be the most powerful force of redemption. Will they succeed in healing each other?

It's Not Love | ✓
[ Already Completed In Scrollstck ] Both of them were fragments of a once-whole existence, shattered by life, love, and the weight of their scars. Yet, amidst the wreckage of their hearts, a tiny spark of hope appeared- a child. Eklavya Nene, a single father navigating the stormy seas of parenthood, found himself struggling to be everything his son needed, especially the tender, nurturing presence of a mother. His divorce had left him fractured, and the idea of letting another woman into his life was daunting. But for the sake of his son, Amogh, he had to find a way. Unnati Kothari carried the weight of a troubled past, one that had led her to view men as nothing more than monsters. However, a deep-seated desire to become a mother persisted within her. When she met little Amogh through a mutual friend, her world shifted; the boy's laughter and innocence touched something in her, awakening dreams she thought she had buried forever. Brought together by the gentle nudges of friends and family, Eklavya and Unnati agreed to a marriage of convenience, each committing to the role of a parent for a child who needed more than either could provide alone. Yet, love- true, uncharted, and profound- remained an elusive mystery to them both. Could two souls so deeply marred by their pasts find the courage to trust and to heal?
