They called her Chhaya - a shadow.
Unwanted. Invisible. Just another village girl born where daughters are seen as burdens.
But Aarohi has a secret the world doesn't know.
A fire burns inside her - a dream to shine as an actress, to step out of the shadows and into the spotlight.
Then she meets Reyansh Malhotra.
The arrogant heir of Malhotra Enterprises. Rich, ruthless, untouchable. Engaged to the perfect society princess.
He has everything she doesn't.
She has everything he secretly craves.
When their worlds collide, sparks fly - but so do the battles. Because dreams are dangerous. Love is forbidden. And shadows aren't meant to stand in the light.
