What the Stars Knew 

Are our destinies written in the stars?

Meet two starcrossed lovers. Naveen and Arya.
One is a techie turned famed Vedic astrologer. The other is building her life back up from ashes.

Arya: Could someone shatter your heart into a million pieces with a single word?
Once, someone did that to me. I'd vowed to forget Naveen, became somebody else's forever only to realize that forevers don't exist.
I didn't realize the power of our shared memories until he returned.
And now, I can't stop myself from rushing into his arms.
I can't stop myself from falling for him all over again.
But Naveen is not the boy I once knew.
He now speaks of what the stars know, and unforeseen destinies.
All I care about is whether we have a future together.

Naveen: I won't survive if I lose Arya again.
The memory of us has hounded me for years.
I regret the moment I left her years ago.
I believed I could forget her.
But time has proven otherwise.
Her dark eyes still bewitch me, luring me into their depths.
But the stars tell me, she is not mine to cherish.
For the first time, I want to challenge them.
I want her to be mine forever.

What do the stars know?
What is written in the destiny of Naveen and Arya?

FALLING FOR CINDERELLA


When what you seek is seeking you...



Karan: It all started at a masquerade ball. I took one look at the girl dressed as Cinderella and fell head over heels in love. 

I was not someone who believed in love. 

Yet, within a few hours, she made me crave things I never knew I wanted. 

I began to equate her presence with happiness. 

Like a warm breeze on that winter night, she thawed my frozen heart. 

At midnight, she ran away without telling me who she really was. Just like Cinderella.

I was never the same again. 

I couldn't forget her, but she came visiting only in my dreams.

No matter what, I was determined to find her.


Chandni: Karan was not someone I could even dream about. 

I was a poor orphan, a nobody.

He was a billionaire, the hottest bachelor in India, coveted by rich women everywhere. 

A dance: that was all he asked.

But while we danced, I gave him my heart, knowing that the magic would end once he realized my true identity.

I was nothing but a cheat.

Yet, the magic didn't end that night.

A bizarre twist of fate put me in his path again. I had to hide my secret, even though I wished to confess everything to him. 

Was watching him from afar the only thing that was written in my destiny?
