Is it possible for a cage to offer freedom?
A deeply conservative father, a mother resigned to the status quo, and the ghost of a twisted abuse have beat Kriti Tripathi into a numb kind of acceptance. The kind of acceptance that allows her to block out the uncomfortable realities that come with forming meaningful bonds with the people around her.
When her mother shoves her into an arranged marriage to a stranger, Kriti is forced to confront secrets that have painted her past black and surrendered her future to the demands of her possessor.
But Kriti's quietly mysterious husband has been whispering things as she struggles to adjust to her new life. Things that make her think she might not be as trapped as she feels, and Kriti begins to suspect that this marriage might mean more than she expected.
Kriti isn't the only one who has been keeping secrets. Even her perfectly responsible, too mature husband has something to hide.
Secrets have a way of revealing themselves, though. When the demons of her past show up on her doorstep, the secrets they've been keeping threaten to destroy Kriti and her marriage; unless Kriti can reform herself into her own brand of savior.

My Charming Husband
As I took a seat beside her, I realised that she was awfully quiet. "Is everything fine", I asked her. Naina licked her lips and looked at me. For a few seconds none of us said anything and then finally she said- "Aakash, my family has a second-hand car. I have been earning for quite sometime now but my savings aren't enough for even a bike. We live in a small apartment, which you have seen already, throughout my life I have shared everything...my books, clothes, shoes, cosmetics, even my laptop with my elder sister." I did not understand why Naina was saying all this with a sad expression. To me, everything that concerns her always feels happy and worth being proud of. She continued- "What I am saying Aakash, is that I am nowhere worthy, capable, or even habituated of a life where my husband owns a house with an elevator or where he wishes to buy me a helicopter. We are so different, Aakash. This scares me a lot". Not even for a moment have I ever felt that Naina would be insecure of my living standards. But, I understood where she was coming from. "Naina", I replied, "All this extravagant decorations, this lavish home, my expensive lifestyle,none of this means anything to me. It is a facade I have to maintain for the world. YOU ARE MY HOME". *** Here's the story of Naina Khanna and Aakash Arora. Two people who are from completely different backgrounds, however destiny brings them together and their souls connect.
