AISHA ZAHRA
She's the name everyone knows the voice that fills stadiums the face that defines success. Awards, fame, applause she has it all. But once the lights fade and the crowd disappears, Aisha isn't the star anymore. She's just a woman who wants a quiet home, her two little kids around her, and a place where she doesn't have to perform a place where she can simply be. Her kids are her only peace the only people who make her feel truly safe and loved.
KAVI DESAI
Far away in the mountains of Kullu, Kavi has found the kind of calm most people spend their lives chasing. He once lived in Mumbai's chaos doing something he partially liked chasing deadlines and noise but now he wakes up to laughter the sound of forty children who call him "Papa." The orphanage he runs is his world, and between their smiles, his music, and his art, he's learned what happiness actually means. The mountains gave him what he wanted ...peace, and in that silence, he found home
And then one random day a single Instagram post changes everything
Two strangers two worlds and yet, somehow one quiet connection neither of them can explain.
This is not just a love story
It's about finding yourself when life gets confusing and weird
It's about the beauty of motherhood the comfort of friendship, and that rare quiet magic of meeting someone who feels like home even before you realize you were searching

QUARTER LIFE CRISIS
Cupid never had a chance in their messy, parental-restricted love story Karishma Jha, a twenty-one-year-old recent graduate with the world at her feet if only she chose to face it. Plagued with the worries of the future and yet healing from the scars of her past, she was yet to pay any heed to the present. She was the queen of the world of What-ifs What if I never get a job? What if I never do anything worthwhile? What if I am not here tomorrow? What if someone new moves next door? Still struggling to live one day at a time, she is hit with yet another surprise: a new neighbor, Rishabh Mehta. His arrival gives her the opportunity to take a step out of her cocooned world, to do something daring for once in her sheltered life. What if a girl with perpetually cold feet chooses to befriend a boy who lives like there is no tomorrow? When Rishabh Mehta moved to his aunt's place in Bangalore, the last thing he expected was to deal with the girl next door. Shrew, grump, ornery, he knew the many nicknames of her, except her real name. She proved true to her description when, one night, she cuts off the wire of his music system in the middle of a raging party. That was his first impression of hers. He also never expected her unrelenting efforts to befriend him. When he finally gives in, the possibility of tomorrow increases with every shared laughter and stolen glance. Will their love survive self-imposed obstacles, helicopter parents, and the two-foot gap between their balconies? Or, will it remain a fond memory to smile upon when a day gets a bit more difficult than the rest?

𝐊𝐢𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐭 : 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐅𝐚𝐭𝐞 🔥
✨ 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: She was always the quiet one - the girl who smiled even when her world was falling apart. People called her strong, but no one saw the nights she broke down just to rebuild herself by morning. Life taught her to stay silent, but her heart whispered louder: "You deserve peace too." One day, she stopped apologizing for existing. She stopped shrinking to make others comfortable. She began to choose herself - slowly, softly, but completely. 🌙 Now, she isn't waiting for fate to be kind... she's writing her own story. Because sometimes, Kismat isn't what you're given - it's what you decide to become. 💫

Love, Like Home
Completed Flatmates to Friends. Friends to Lovers. A slowburn love story between a tech nerd Avni and an actor Rohit who is more than 5 years younger than her. Set in ten years of time span. Cute romance. No love triangles. Found family tropes. Nice and kind charecters. South Mumbai Vibes. Avni Pathak is a tech entrepreneur who rebuilt her life and her identity from the ashes. Fiercely private and deeply introverted, she clings to her peace and quiet like a lifeline. Her awkward, deadpan charm has a way of endearing and occasionally exasperating everyone around her. She's all heart and quiet resilience, wrapped in the unassuming shell of a soft-spoken coder who just wants to be left alone (unless you're her laptop or her one plant). Rohit Avasthi is an aspiring actor with big dreams and an even bigger heart. Loud, expressive, and full of mischief, he brings joy and spontaneity wherever he goes. He's chaos in motion, wrapped in a genetically-blessed face, and somehow manages to be both a walking distraction and the safest person in the room. Avni and Rohit are flatmates, figuring out life, love, ambition, and what it means to be truly happy. Avni is the quiet anchor, steady and grounded, holding him when he soars too high too fast. Rohit is the sunshine, bright and unrelenting, warming her gently when she begins to stumble. Together, they balance each other-soft chaos meeting quiet strength-as they become friends.Complete
