(A TejRan Story of Love, Pain, and Healing)
When Tejaswi Prakash - fierce, confident, and unapologetically bold - hired the quiet and reserved Karan Kundra as her secretary, she never imagined how deeply he would change her world. Behind Karan's calm smile and timid nature hides a storm - a boy broken by years of abuse, fear, and silence.
Tejaswi, with her wit, warmth, and stubborn care, slowly becomes his light - the only person who makes him laugh, the only touch he doesn't flinch away from. But what starts as gentle friendship soon becomes something deeper, something neither of them saw coming.
Their lives take a fateful turn when a bizarre incident in a small village forces them into marriage - a bond neither planned but both slowly learn to cherish. As Tejaswi begins to see the cracks behind Karan's quiet façade - the panic in his eyes, the nightmares, the scars hidden beneath his sleeves - she realizes she's not just falling in love with him... she's falling for someone who's forgotten what love feels like.
And when darkness from his past threatens to consume him again, Tejaswi becomes his only anchor - holding him, soothing him, showing him that love doesn't hurt... it heals.
A story of two souls bound by fate, Bound by Fate is an emotional journey of love born in pain, trust built in silence, and healing that begins with a single touch.
Two successful businesswomen, Rani and Lamia, enter an arranged marriage designed to strengthen their families' and each others businesses. Despite their accomplishments, the marriage feels more like a contract than a partnership, leaving Lamia frustrated and resentful towards Rani. As they navigate their new life together, they also care for their eight-month-old baby, Faisal, which adds to the strain on their relationship.
This story shows how a woman can stay even when her heart is bleeding-because sometimes love is no longer the reason, but the innocent life you refuse to let grow up in pieces.
