In the dusty lanes of a small UP town, where gossip travels faster than rickshaws and shaadi season never ends, two sworn enemies are forced to work side-by-side-again.
Kavya Sharma, a witty librarian with a secret double life as a spicy romance author, wants nothing to do with loud music, flashy weddings, or Raghav Singh-the town's most dramatic and Instagram-obsessed wedding planner.
Unfortunately, fate (and her cousin's wedding) have other plans.
From dance-off disasters to playlist wars, Kavya and Raghav are constantly butting heads... until sparks of a very different kind start to fly. But when Raghav finds out Kavya is the mysterious "Gulabo Rani" whose writing he's been falling for online, the real drama begins.
Packed with laughter, chaos, chai, and charm, Shaadi Ke Side Effects is a feel-good rom-com about unexpected love, second chances, and finding magic in the most familiar places.
For fans of: Band Baaja Baaraat, To All the Boys I've Loved Before, and everything with too much marigold.

The Kalyanam Conundrum ✅ | fakedating x slowburn
One arranged meeting. One long-distance boyfriend. One very nosy grandmother. What could possibly go wrong? Kavya Iyer has her life mostly figured out. She's halfway through her PhD, in love with a sweet Midwestern boy, Noah, and finally getting a grip on adulting (sort of). All she wanted this summer was to enjoy mango season, binge some 90s rom-coms, and power through her dissertation in peace. Instead, she's ambushed by an "innocent" set-up that then blows out of proportion. It is complete with filter coffee, overenthusiastic family members, and the boy... who actually winks at her like he's the hero in a Karan Johar movie. Enter Arjun: frustratingly charming, dangerously clever, and way too comfortable with this entire charade. Kavya wants nothing to do with it. But when texts turn into conversations, and conversations turn into something harder to ignore... her already messy life starts spiraling in unexpected directions.Complete
A Marriage Neither chose
--- Title: A Marriage Neither Chose Genre: Drama | Slow-burn Romance | Forced Marriage | Emotional Turmoil | Friendship Turned Chaos Tanya and Eklavya have been inseparable since college-best friends, business partners, and the kind of duo everyone calls "soulmates." But for them, love was never part of the equation. They built a life side by side, never imagining marriage would come from another direction-forced, arranged, and completely unwanted. When Tanya is pressured into marrying Shivaay, Eklavya's cousin and closest confidant, she expects distance and discomfort. What she doesn't expect is how closely jealousy, suspicion, and emotional tension would follow. Shivaay, calm and composed on the surface, begins to notice the natural bond between his new wife and his cousin-a bond too easy, too deep, and too unexplainable. At the same time, Eklavya is pushed into marrying Diyanshi, Tanya's best friend-a quiet girl who tries to stay strong but can't ignore what she sees: her husband and her best friend are just too close. Now, four people are caught in a tangled web of unspoken emotions, misunderstood intentions, and forced promises. As feelings get complicated, jealousy brews, and trust begins to crack, all four are left questioning what's real, what's right, and what their hearts have been hiding all along. Will these marriages break before they begin, or will something unexpected bloom from the chaos? ---Complete
