What would you expect from a typical Indian family?
Hypocrisy, melodrama, cheesiness and overloads of emotions!That was exactly how Samaira saw her family. Living with her parents and elder brother was not easy, especially dwhen they shared rhyming names. It was always tough to make sacrifices for an undeserving brother, as she'd put, knowing that she loved him more than anyone else, deep inside.
With some foreign guests showing up at her house and her cousin's wedding, what could possibly go wrong apart from the fact that she'd have to become their unofficial guide and tour them around Mumbai?
Now, all of them are stuck amidst Mumbai and Mantras, and there's no way out but to enjoy the drama and festivities.

Married to you ✔
Arrange marriage, I hated to even hear about it. But my fate didn't favour me. Born into a conservative family, I had little say in the matter. I was made to meet men chosen for me, one after another. Each time, I found my own ways to be rejected and thankfully, they did reject me. But then he came. He was somehow different from the previous guys that I had met. Still, I tried the same tactic, hoping he too would walk away. Instead, he offered me a deal that was never meant to change anything. "We will marry each other and will be living under a same roof but we won't practically be husband and wife. Neither will I control you nor will you control me. Or let's just say we can be roommates." It was simple. Ridiculous but somehow strangely convincingly practical. Or so I thought. Because that one deal... changed my life forever. **** ~A love after marriage story~ It isn't as simple as you think. They will end up bickering over god knows what kind of stupid things. They will end up having cliche moments and at times you will go all aww on them. Just click the button 'Read' and be a part of their journey.Complete
