When Raindrops Met Jasmine
A slow-burn Indian love story blooming under the Konkan rains When Ayan Malhotra, a brooding photographer from Delhi, escapes to a quiet coastal village in Konkan, all he wants is silence-far from the heartbreak he left behind.

With jasmine in her hair and secrets in her eyes, she becomes the calm in his storm and the storm in his calm. They are opposites in every way. She hides; he observes.
