When Cupid Bats First

They were the golden boys of Indian cricket-Shubman Gill and KL Rahul-unstoppable on the field, inseparable off it. One had love wrapped around his finger; the other didn't even bother trying.

Shubman is head over heels for Sara Tendulkar, the ever-graceful daughter of cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar. Their picture-perfect relationship is all things charming and chaotic. But when Shubman notices his best friend KL Rahul brooding in his singlehood, he and Sara decide to play matchmakers.

Enter Sanjna Malangi, a fiercely independent veterinarian from Bangalore who's new to Mumbai and completely uninterested in cricket. She doesn't care that KL Rahul is a national heartthrob-she just knows he walked into her clinic with a sick dog and a clueless face.

As accidental meetings turn into reluctant dates, and reluctance turns into real feelings, love begins to bloom where neither expected it.

From dressing rooms to dog parks, from stadium lights to quiet sunsets, "When Cupid Bats First" is a witty, romantic, and heartwarming tale of two couples navigating friendship, fame, and the unexpected turns of the heart.

Because sometimes, love is a game-and sometimes, it's the prize.
