We all have a celebrity crush and have a desire to meet them at least once in our life time. But what will happen if we fall in love with them?

Fall in love so much so that we dedicate ourselves to them. So much so that even after securing such a high rank in a prestigious exam to secure seat in one of the best colleges in our country, we chose to opt for a college abroad.

This was the story of Arya.

Arya had her dreams and after a certain incident in her life she chose not to trust anyone and had lost hope in her life, completely changing her nature. But this cruel something we call destiny makes her fall in love with a British celebrity. 

She wasn't a stalker but the small sight of his can makes her forget her sufferings.

Where all of this was happening in Arya's life, Blaze was unaware of his secret lover. He is a well known celebrity in Hollywood and had won many awards for his majestic acting skills. His acting can make a ruthless person cry.

Moreover, someone in the corner of the world, was getting high on blood. Blood of his victims. His psychic nature lands him on the British soil.

Later on he did something which changed Arya's and Blaze's life completely.

Just as we think we now know the ending, the sequel takes an unexpected turn.

'The ferocity of love isn't experienced unless you feel it.' Life is a connection of everybody around us, just like how a ball is stuck in a loop of circle. Either we accept it or not, but that is what happens when Dr Sejal, an exceptionally talented doctor meets Aryan Shetty - who himself is a surgeon and the CEO of Research Centre of Science and Medicine (RCSM). The glories of past, subsided in unknown testimonies of present turns an unrequited threat to their future when they try learning to live life and understand it from different perspectives. The main objective of Dr Sejal is to prove her father of how much successful she could become - she had a simple plan to do it, until somehow she finds herself stuck in the middle of falling in love with chauvinist Aryan, and experiencing the beauty of true friends. This makes her life a secluded mess of relationships. For Sejal there doesn't exist a word termed as hate, because hate is also love if you think deeply about it. We hate somebody not because we want to end their life, we do it because our love for somebody else is more stronger compared to the other. Hate in simple terms is nothing but comparisons of love. With love in the air, marriage on the list, friendship goals shipping their own ways and lots of never ending expectations of drama, both Sejal and Aryan learn to cope with life. Hoping to understand how to enjoy it instead of being sullen or depressed about it. Can someone love the same person and even hate them? Sejal was successful in finding its answer, although Aryan is a considerate genius but his EQ level couldn't make him a better lover. Will his love for someone else from his past destroy his relationship dynamics with everyone who love him now? Cover credit - @Dudess-Faith
