Bhakti : The Sarpanch's Devotion

Eighteen-year-old Bhakti-
a fragile, innocent girl burdened with responsibilities far beyond her age.
A sick mother.
A drunkard father.
Endless suffering, carried silently as she struggles to survive each day.

One stormy night
turns her life upside down.

By morning, she steps out of an old, broken hut-
wrapped in the coat of the village Sarpanch, Rudra Pratap Singh.

She believes no one saw her.
But within hours, she finds herself standing before the very man
whose coat now clings to her trembling body.

Rudra Pratap Singh.
Twenty-seven.
The powerful Sarpanch who never imagined he would spend a night
in a forgotten hut outside the village.
A broken car forced him to stay.
But his helplessness dragged an innocent girl into chaos.

A man whose heart had never beaten for any woman
makes a sudden, calculated decision-
to marry Bhakti.

One is innocent.
The other, shrewd (for World).

For one, marriage is the beginning of life.
For the other, it is merely a responsibility.

But the real question remains-
will Bhakti ever become
Rudra Pratap Singh's devotion?

Or will this bond be crushed
between power, silence, and sacrifice?
