42 parts Ongoing A Shubman Gill Fanfiction
When BCCI plans to revamp its global image ahead of the much-hyped ODI series in Australia, they appoint Inara Chopra, a 25-year-old award-winning creative director known for her bold, emotion-driven campaigns. With a clean aesthetic, sharp vision, and zero tolerance for ego, Inara is the kind of woman who doesn't get dazzled easily-especially not by celebrities.
Enter Shubman Gill-India's young batting sensation, recently appointed ODI vice-captain, and the face of the new campaign. Confident on the field but surprisingly guarded off it, Shubman isn't used to someone challenging his every idea... until Inara walks into the BCCI headquarters with her storyboard and calm defiance.
What begins as a professional collaboration for a high-profile design and digital storytelling campaign soon turns into something far more layered-late-night brainstorming sessions, behind-the-scenes shoots in Sydney and Melbourne, and unexpected moments of quiet vulnerability between them.
As Inara crafts the narrative of "The Blue Rising"-a campaign meant to show the heart behind the men in blue-she finds herself seeing the human side of cricket that fans never do. And Shubman? He discovers that maybe the person capable of redesigning the team's story might also be the one rewriting his own.
But with the Australian tour bringing fame, pressure, and public scrutiny, both of them will have to decide what's worth protecting-their reputations or the connection quietly building between them.
