Architect Raghav, 31, still grapples with the void left by his wife's death three years ago, a tragedy that coincided with the birth of their son, Yug. His world revolves around his young child and the lingering echoes of his past love. Meanwhile, Gayatri, 36, embodies the picture of a devoted wife and mother to her two children, 10-year-old Shruti and 8-year-old Mihir. Unbeknownst to her, the foundation of her seemingly happy marriage is crumbling under her husband's long-standing infidelity.
Their paths, marked by individual grief and unforeseen betrayal, are destined to intersect. This is a poignant story about finding unexpected hope and rebuilding trust amidst personal turmoil. It explores the delicate journey of two souls navigating the complexities of loss, single parenthood, and the courage it takes to open one's heart to a new beginning.
As Raghav and Gayatri's lives intertwine, they might just become the anchors the other desperately needs, learning to heal and perhaps, find love again in the face of their shared vulnerabilities.

The Silent Wounds ( Completed )
Some souls are born under gentle skies, bathed in love and warmth. Meera was not one of them. Her world had always been cold and unwelcoming. Sent away to live under her grandmother's care, she grew up amidst cruelty. She was harassed, abused - the bruises invisible to the world, the loneliness louder than her cries. Life did not ease its grip as she grew older. Her marriage became just another prison. Her husband's words cut like knives, his hands heavy with rage. The day she learned the truth behind her marriage, her fragile hopes shattered completely. After years of being treated like a doormat, Meera finally chose freedom over chains. Divorce was not a new beginning - it was merely the end of one battle and the start of another: the fight to piece herself back together. Meera's journey became one of finding slivers of light in the deepest darkness... of discovering that sometimes, the love we yearn for most comes from the worlds we create within ourselves. She didn't know if her own "happily ever after" truly existed but she longed for the day when the man she adored in fiction might somehow step into her reality and hold her as tenderly as he held the love in his story. Will Meera ever find her happily ever after?Complete

Phir Se Pyaar ✓
"Some distances are not measured in miles, but in heartbeats lost and found." Six months have passed since Swara walked away from Sanskar-and from everything they once called love. While the world assumed Sanskar bore the heavier burden, no one saw the quiet storm raging inside Swara's heart. Alone in her silence, forgotten in her pain, she carried the weight of expectations and identity until she could carry no more. Now, as fate brings her back to the Maheshwari Mansion, she is no longer the same Swara. Stronger, wiser, and quietly scarred, her return sparks a wildfire of unresolved emotions. Meanwhile, Sanskar-torn between love and betrayal-believes she must pay the price for her abandonment. But is love about punishment, or healing? In this intense tale of heartbreak, transformation, and redemption, Swara and Sanskar must confront the ghosts of their past to decide if love is worth a second chance... or if some wounds cut too deep to mend. A journey of soul-searching, shattered trust, and rekindled hope begins where true love is tested and reborn. Start Date: May 2017 End Date: September 2018 Edited Date: May 2025Complete
