The Replacement Ruckus

Aarohi Tiwari never expected her long-time secret crush to become her husband. She was supposed to quietly admire Hriday Chaturvedi from a distance-handsome hotel heir, her father's old friend's son, the boy who once comforted her in the garden when her bunny was hurt and the man she spent years pretending not to look at.

But fate has a dramatic sense of humour.

On the night of his wedding, Hriday's bride runs away and Aarohi's father suggests the unthinkable.

One impulsive decision, one stunned mandap, and one accidental baraat later, Aarohi becomes the replaced bride. Now married to the man she's loved since eighteen, Aarohi must navigate new rooms, shared beds, surprise tenderness and a husband who seems far too calm about everything except when songs turn romantic or she smiles too brightly.

A replaced bride. A secret crush. A fated slow burn. Welcome to a romance where destiny shows up with dhols, drama and dulhaniya-level chaos.
