Chavi has never known freedom. Raised in a strict, male-dominated home where her opinions - and her mother's - hold no value, her only wish is to break free and continue studying after 10th grade. But her dreams are met with walls of tradition and a father who refuses to listen.

Sankit, on the other hand, lives under the shadow of a haunting curse - a prophecy whispered by his own mother: that he is destined to die young.

When a stormy night forces these two strangers to seek shelter together, their lives entangle in unexpected ways. She is fragile yet fierce. He is broken but bold. And neither of them is prepared for what lies ahead.

But what if their meeting wasn't an accident?
What if, in trying to escape their pasts, they find a future - in each other?

A story of rebellion, curses, and a love that defies fate.
