27 parts Ongoing Dr. Rudra Rajan Yaduvanshi has spent a decade in self-imposed exile, trading his family's suffocating business throne for the sterile precision of a surgeon's scalpel. He returns to Mumbai as a brilliant, emotionally guarded Professor of Surgery, but his conservative, power-hungry matriarch, Savitri Yaduvanshi, has a new prescription for his life: marriage to a political pawn who despises his life's work.
When Rudra witnesses his intended bride dismiss a patient's life as merely "inefficient capital," he knows he must rebel. His escape is impulsive, desperate, and strictly transactional: a marriage of convenience to save himself from a fate worse than exile.
Isha Raghuveer Patil is a sharp, fiercely dedicated first-year surgical resident, battling the odds-and her own manipulative stepmother-to pursue her dream. She needs a way out of a restrictive marriage alliance that would chain her to the kitchen, and Rudra, her intimidating ten-years-older professor, offers the perfect solution: a marriage contract that guarantees her career freedom.
They marry under a cloud of urgency and unspoken promises. At home, they are secret spouses navigating the dangerous expectations of the powerful Yaduvanshi dynasty.
At the hospital, they are Professor and Resident-a scandalous, career-ending secret that hangs on every shared glance and whispered conversation in the sterile quiet of the operating room.
But when their professional control shatters under the pressure, Rudra realizes his young, fiery wife isn't just a solution; she's the vital, human connection he cut out of his life long ago. Isha's quiet resilience and boundless compassion are slowly but surely performing the most complex surgery of all: reviving the hollow heart of the surgeon who forgot how to feel.
"He needed a shield. She needed a scalpel. They both found a reason to live."
