The Love Voyage

"Let fate play its part"

Two of India's biggest family empires. An arranged marriage that's basically a merger. For everyone else, it's the wedding of the century.

For Adhrit? It is just another task on his to-do list, another duty to check off. He is so buried in expectations that he has forgotten what he actually wants.

For Izna? It's a life sentence. She is a voice that won't be suppressed and an undying spirit, which chafes viciously against all this "tradition."

So on the night of this grand wedding, they do the only thing that makes sense to each of them- They run.

Classic, right?

Except the real joke has been played with them and by whom? The almighty, eternal truth of the cosmos, Fate.Well, yes the fate too has, it's own ruinous beguiling part to play, perhaps.

As per their expectations, they're not tasting the enigmatic freedom but are actually, stuck staring at each other from opposite seats in the same first-class train compartment. Because they've accidentally booked tickets on the same month-long luxury tour across India.

It's just them, the weird tension, and the whole country rolling by the window.

It's gonna be a long thirty days. He's all quiet restraint. She's all defiant fire.They will all place bets placed, play try not to kill each other while they might even, simultaneously, against all odds, find something to laugh about.

So, the real question might not be about family legacies or who ran first.Instead, can a month on a train make two strangers fall in love? Or are they just speeding toward a really expensive disaster?

30 days!! Are they enough for the love voyage to sail or to sink?
