Gauri Sharma, a fiercely independent and principled criminal lawyer, has built her career fighting for justice. But when she uncovers evidence implicating her trusted ally, a senior police official, in a shocking mafia murder, her life spirals into chaos. With powerful forces hunting her, Gauri has no choice but to run-straight into the past she vowed to leave behind.

Twelve years ago, Gauri walked away from Mahesh Shirke, a man she once loved but swore never to see again. Now, Mahesh is no longer the fiery young rebel she knew but the new crown prince of Mumbai's underworld. Ruthless, enigmatic, and commanding respect through fear, Mahesh is a man of few words and buried secrets-a past so dark that even his closest confidants dare not speak of it.

When Gauri shows up unannounced at his doorstep, seeking sanctuary, Mahesh is caught between his duty as a mafia kingpin and the unresolved emotions she awakens. Their reunion is anything but simple. Old wounds resurface, trust is fragile, and their connection threatens to ignite both passion and peril.

As Gauri becomes entangled in Mahesh's dangerous world, she must navigate treacherous alliances, unravel a conspiracy that stretches far beyond her imagination, and confront the shadows of her own heart. Mahesh, in turn, must decide what he is willing to risk -to protect the woman who once left him behind.

In a city where power and betrayal walk hand in hand, The Forbidden Alibi is a gripping tale of love, redemption, and survival, where two souls torn apart by fate must find their way back to each other to stand against the darkness threatening to consume them both.
