ashes of new vows

Two years ago, Arnav Singhania-the underworld's most calculated kingpin-erased his wife, Anushka, from his life with surgical precision. Convinced by his mother's venomous lies that Anushka's "betrayal" led to his brother Atharva's death, Arnav didn't seek a confrontation. He simply looked through her as if she were glass and walked away. He didn't care about her pleas, her innocence, or her pregnancy. In the wake of his cold abandonment, Anushka suffered a devastating miscarriage alone in a public ward, losing the only piece of the Singhania bloodline she had left. To Arnav, she is a non-entity, a ghost he successfully exorcised.

But the "tragedy" was a masterclass in deep-cover deception.

Atharva is alive. Having faked his death for a high-stakes intelligence mission, he has spent the last two years living a double life. To the world, he is a ghost; to the neighbors, he is merely a simple, unassuming corporate employee living a quiet life with his "wife," Anushka. Driven by a protective, obsessive love that predates her marriage to his brother, Atharva was the one who pulled her from the wreckage Arnav left behind. He held her through the grief of the lost child and rebuilt her world, hiding his lethal skills behind the facade of a nine-to-five desk job.

Now, Arnav has returned to the city to consolidate his empire. He has no intention of looking for Anushka-he truly doesn't give a damn if she exists. However, their worlds are on a collision course. While Arnav moves through high-society galas and blood-soaked deals, he remains oblivious that the "dead" brother he mourns is actually the man coming home every evening to the woman Arnav discarded.

The tension mounts as Atharva plays a dangerous game: maintaining his identity as a mundane employee while silently sabotaging Arnav's operations from the shadows to keep him away from Anushka.
