------ Can Be Read As General Fiction ------
One night. One event. Lives of two people altered completely.
When Aditya Kumar Tripathi, Chief Executive Reporter at Bhaskar times stepped into Pagdandiya and met Imlie, he did not know how his life would take a drastic change, altering his life completely!
When Imlie met Aditya, she did not know how this man whom she called Shehri Langoor would transform her simple life and usher it completely to chaos!
Aditya and Imlie - two souls truly different in many ways. Their paths cross each others and both are left entangled in a forced marriage which none of them wanted, each for their own reasons. With this sudden twist in their tale, their camaraderie too changes drastically with Aditya donning a rude, ignorant and angry avtar and blaming Imlie for all that happened. As for Imlie, she quietly takes it all, not knowing how to deal with what she has been suddenly pushed into!
This relation of compulsion alters not just their lives but their characteristics as well and brings with it many other associated factors.
Lakeerein is my take on how they deal with what's put their way and how they ultimately come together, accepting the decision fate had taken for them!
A tale of sorrow, pain, hurt, betrayal, love, care, anger and togetherness. A tale of differing morals and a different aspect of what's right and what's wrong - Lakeerein is my attempt to unravel this story the way I imagine it.
