In the year 2025, 17-year-old Shreya-brilliant, strong-willed, and born with a mysterious pull toward the ancient-finds herself abruptly transported through time into the heart of the Mahabharat era. Drawn by forces beyond human comprehension, she awakens in the presence of none other than Krishna himself. 

Calm yet cosmic, he tells her the truth: she is not here by accident, but by destiny.

Now in the golden kingdom of Hastinapur, just as the Pandavas and Kauravas return from gurukul as young men, Shreya must walk a path between fate and free will. 

Gifted with knowledge of the future but burdened by the rules of dharma, she becomes a silent observer and secret catalyst in a world where every emotion could change the course of war.

Caught between divine politics, secret alliances, and a love that was written in stars before she was born-Shreya must uncover who she truly is.
Is she a girl from the future?
Or a soul from the past, finally coming home?

As kingdoms rise and dharma trembles, only one truth remains:
Time may move forward, but destiny always circles back.

What happens when a firecracker from Kalyug crash-lands in the Dwapar Yuga with zero filter, a love for drama, and a heart that beats (too loudly) for Suryaputra Karna? Meet Madhurika, a modern girl with ancient sass, who accidentally time-travels into the Mahabharat... and turns everything upside down. From revealing future secrets mid-bhaang to matchmaking Dushala and Ashwatthama, to finding a bride for Bhishma (yes, THAT Bhishma), she's here to rewrite destiny - with glam, guts, and gallons of chaos. ✨ No Draupadi division. ✨ Karna is dramatic. Madhurika is more. ✨ Bhishma has a moustache. Just a moustache. ✨ Swayamvars, honey moons, bhang hangovers & "why are we all blushing?" moments. ✨ Featuring: Modern girls invading ancient Hastinapur and Dwarka one bhang glass at a time. And just when you think you've caught your breath, Madhurika's friends arrive with more matchmaking mayhem for the Pandavas, Kauravas, and anyone breathing in Aryavart. Because who needs Vyasa when you've got a drama queen from the 21st century?
