Introduction

Ishan Kishan knows how to perform heartbreak - it's easy when you've been dating the star of the theatre club, Shreyas Iyer, and slowly realizing he's better at acting than loving.

When the annual college play casts Ishan opposite Shubman Gill, his cold, too-perfect rival with a reputation for never cracking, things get complicated.
Especially because Shubman isn't just a scene partner - he's been hiding something for years.

As rehearsals heat up, stage directions turn personal, and one kiss goes way off script, Ishan is forced to confront the biggest question of all:

What if the realest love story isn't the one written in the script... but the one he never saw coming?
