Hand In Hand

When childhood friends Manik Malhotra and Nandini Murthy are brought back into each other's lives, it isn't by fate-but by family. Years ago, Manik left for London, chasing ambition and leaving behind a friendship that could have been something more. Now a father of two, freshly scarred by a marriage that crumbled, he isn't searching for love-only stability for his children.

Nandini wasn't expecting to say yes to a marriage built on concern and shared history. But when she sees the vulnerability in the eyes of two children-and the man she once called her best friend-she steps into the unknown.

Bound not by romance but responsibility, they begin as partners in parenting. But life, in its quiet rebellion, begins to stitch their worlds together-through burnt toast breakfasts, school recitals, whispered arguments, and moments that say more than words ever could.

This is the story of two people who never got the chance... until now.
A story about healing, choosing each other, and building something beautiful-hand in hand.
