Aarisha Salunkhe never imagined her life would change with a single "Yes."
At 25, she's a brilliant software engineer-and a devoted single mom to her 3-year-old son, Aarvik. Her world is simple, predictable, and built around love for her little boy.
When fate ties her to Atharth Raizada, the Crown Prince of Rajasthan, in a love-cum-arranged marriage, everything shifts.
He is royal, reserved, and carrying the weight of a kingdom.
She is modern, independent, and fiercely protective of her son.
And both of them are quiet, thoughtful souls-introverts who open up only when they feel truly safe.
Two very different worlds-bound together by tradition, family, and a knot neither of them expected.
Can love blossom between duty and destiny, when spoken words are few but emotions run deep?
Or will secrets, insecurities, and the shadow of Aarvik's place in their lives test the strength of this fragile bond?
In the palace halls and in the quiet moments at home, three hearts will learn what it truly means to be tied together...
✨ Because sometimes, the softest voices tell the strongest stories.

"Love doesn't always come approved by your parents - sometimes, it comes with twin babies and an Italian last name."
"Her Foreign Lover"
Rhea Mehta, a 24-year-old Accounts teacher from Ahmedabad, is just trying to avoid rishta season in her orthodox Gujarati household. With her parents on a mission to marry her off to the next gold-chain-wearing MBA boy, love is the last thing on her mind.
That is, until the loud, chaotic, and very much off-limits DeLuca family moves in next door.
Arjun DeLuca - 35, half-Italian, half-Indian, single dad of adorably unhinged one-year-old twin boys - is everything her parents would never approve of: older, divorced, tattooed, and worst of all, not "pure Gujarati." When Rhea agrees to tutor his teenage brother for 11th-grade accounts, she doesn't expect to be drawn into their messy, hilarious world. Or to fall for the grumpy, espresso-obsessed man next door who somehow makes her feel more seen than anyone ever has.
But in a society where love comes second to tradition, and neighbors come with judgmental aunties attached, can Rhea choose her heart without losing her family?
