In the heart of a bustling medical college, Tiara, a bright and ambitious first-year student, meets Robin, a charming senior whose confidence captivates her from the moment they lock eyes. What starts as an innocent introduction on a professor's birthday soon spirals into a deep, passionate romance. Tiara and Robin embark on a two-year journey filled with late-night study sessions, secret getaways, and shared dreams for the future. They experience the bliss of young love, cooking together in the hostel, exploring new places, and building a bond that seems unbreakable.


But beneath the surface of their perfect love story lies a looming shadow-Robin's family, bound by tradition, has other plans for him. As the pressure of an arranged marriage weighs heavily on him, their once-unshakable relationship begins to crack. Despite their undeniable connection, Robin is forced to make a choice that tears them apart.


When Robin's family arranges his marriage to another woman, Tiara is left heartbroken, unable to understand how everything fell apart after years of love. Their final goodbye is filled with tears and regret, as Tiara faces the devastating reality that love, no matter how strong, isn't always enough to conquer tradition.


With her heart shattered, Tiara must find the strength to rebuild her life without Robin. She throws herself into her medical career, determined to succeed and find meaning beyond the love she lost. As Robin navigates a loveless marriage, he is haunted by memories of Tiara and the life they could have had.


Filled with emotional twists, heartache, and moments of passionate romance, At First Sight: A Love That Couldn't Last is a poignant tale of love, loss, and the difficult choices we must sometimes make between the heart and family duty.

153 parts Ongoing
Sarah, the youngest daughter in a humble, middle-class family, has always been the embodiment of her parents' dreams. With two elder sisters already established in their lives, the weight of expectation rests heavily on her shoulders. After experiencing a devastating failure, Sarah is determined to redeem herself and secure the bright future her family envisions for her. Ryan, on the other hand, is the only child of his ambitious parents, both doctors who have carved a future for him without his consent. While he obediently walks the path they've laid out, Ryan harbors a secret passion for online gaming, a talent he knows his parents would never approve of. Back in school, Sarah and Ryan were fierce academic rivals, constantly pushing each other to excel, driven by the desire to outdo the other. Their competition defined them, yet after high school, their lives took very different directions. They parted ways, only to unexpectedly cross paths again seven years later. Now, as adults, they meet with masks of success-both pretending to be thriving, hiding their failures and inner struggles. But behind their forced smiles and false bravado lies the same old rivalry, along with questions they've been too scared to face: what if they lose eachother again? Beneath the competition, there has always been an unspoken connection, something they're both too afraid to admit. In the heart of this Indian tale, set against the vibrant backdrop of family traditions, unfulfilled dreams, and personal redemption, Sarah and Ryan must face the truth about themselves-and each other. Will their rivalry push them apart once more, or will it become the bridge that brings them closer than ever before? ... Inspired by the true journey of a real-life romance.

"you're no one to me", his words echoed in my ears but what was it all when he kissed me; merely an illusion? It felt so real and lively. "...and just so you know, you're not allowed to leave this job until or before 6 months", he flung the contract papers in the air. I had signed the papers, the terms and conditions clearly meant that I was supposed to work for his company and had no right to leave it until his consent. "Leave my cabin for now", he ordered as he turned behind. ********** Amanda Waters is your typical College student who happens to face a lot of financial difficulties and as a result, is made to earn a living. She's blunt, She's sensitive but she is also accompanied by two of her best friends in this story: Gina Sullivan and Francis Rutherfold. The enterprise which she works in is different, very different. In fact, the 'CEO' is not just another Happy go lucky male lead of the company. Aaron Reynolds- Rude, Arrogant, Harsh, and Stubborn. He's what they call an eccedentesiast. They say that a person who defines negative adjectives has a lot more inside them, the darkness in that person may overrule all the Positiveness. Well, with Aaron, it's hard to say. But...What if Amanda already had a face-off with 'The CEO' before working in his firm? What if she had already drawn a thick line of hate? What if egos of the same level collide? What then? True Love? More like an illusion! An illusion that poses a life threat. An illusion with the ability to make you believe in non-existent things such as; fairies, demons, fate, and even destiny! Ironic is it not? What we as humans happen to rely on.
