In the bustling city of Mumbai, Raha, a determined young woman aspiring to start her own business, finds herself thrown together with Aryaveer, India's youngest CEO, due to some issues and business projects.
As they navigate their shared space, and...

It's been 6years since I saw her, since I last heard her, felt her, enjoyed her laugh. It's scary how one desicion or choice can change so much and leave so much impact on your life, how one person can mean so much to you.
Mean so much that you decide to end things with them even when you're so completely in love. It's something I haven't spoken to many about, it's the origin of Aryaveer Sharma, and the Sharma Enterprises.
Flashback Starts~
2018
"Arya! Aryaa?! Where are you I've been calling you from when why didn't you respond?" She asked
"Well for starters I didn't hear you well the first time.... and then if I would have responded I wouldn't get to see this annoyed and worried face of yours searching for me" I replied
She looked at me widening her eyes, but then breaks it with a smile. The smile that solves all my problems.
"Acha kya hua batao" (Fine tell me what happened)
"Ab toh main nhi bataungi!" She folded her arms and smiled (Now I'm not gonna tell you!)
"Ohh toh tu pakka nhi bataygi?" I asked again (Ohh so you're really not gonna tell me?)
"Hmm." She turns her face away looking into the file next to her.
I walk towards her and hold her chin up and turn it to faceme and say, " toh tu sach mein nhi batane Wali? Acha-" (So you really weren't gonna tell me? Okay-)
We're caught by surprise as her phone rings
"Hello daddy...." "Yes papa." "Ha." Her smile turn upside down as she answers one last time before cutting the call.
"Something about me again?" I ask already having a guess about what uncle had to tell.
"He rejected the business proposal you sent, he said the board agreed to reject together." She explained with an upset expression
"It's alright... I already knew he wasn't going to accept this, I gave it in only because you wanted me to. Anything I do isn't going to make him happy." I smiled hiding the worry.
"What were you going to tell me?" I try to change the subject
"I believe in you I know you will work towards what you wish for." She comes closer cupping my face between her small palms. Giving me a peck on my forehead.
"And what I was going to tell, well remember the college application I gave for my Masters..." she explained further
"Yess..." I answered with a spark of excitement
"So."
"So?" I asked
"Yea I got accepted. They want me to join in August."She answered
"Wait what? That's amazing! You got in that so good!" I hug her excited
"This August." She whispers still hugging
"Well sooner the better!" I reply excited hugging her tighter lifting her up and burying my face in her neck, hiding my sad smile.
Flashback ends~
2024
"Sir"
I hear someone knock as I wake back up from the flashback.
"Come in"
"Sir the Rajvanshi Hospital, tie up meeting about the trauma sector is fixed for 12noon tomorrow." Sneha tells with her face down on the tablet.
"Hm."
"There's also a date planned by Mrs. Sharma for you that's tonight at 7 and she ordered us to cancel any meeting clashing........should we do that?" She whispers but audible enough.
"What? Mrs.Sharma did what?" I ask not completely surprised.
"There's no need to cancel any meeting right now. Let me speak with her." I reply
"You actually are free tonight sir There's just one meeting at 5:30pm, the Kapoor Interiors but that should end by 7"
She stood there watching the tablet and slowly moving her eyes up.
I widen my eyes "You can leave!" I instructed her
Before I forget I dial my phone and call her. "Hello, beta?" She answers "Ha Dadi I can hear you. How have you been." I ask
"I'm young and enjoying like always! Did you cancel your meetings for tonight?" She asks
"Yes about that. I'm not going anywhere, Aap Har baar ese mere meetings cancel karne ka order nhi de sakti." (You can't always give orders to my team canceling my meetings)
"Tu kya Tera baap bhi jayega! (Not only you, but your father will also go! Idk how to translate this but it's very commonly used in india) She's my best friend's niece she is a very nice girl and she's working towards her dream project and going to start her own business soon." Dadi explains
"Dadi aap please esa mat karo (grandma you please don't do this) you know how my life has been about finding love the right one didn't stay and now when the time is right there is no right person" I explain
"Please Mr.Aryaveer you haven't even tried searching for a right person after Shreya. I don't want to die without seeing you get married haa!" She yells across the call
"You're too cliche to be a young and cool dadi. That's bad." I say and smile
"Whatever that means you're going tonight. I don't want to hear any excuses" She hangs up
Dadi thinks I'm burying myself with work and deadlines only so I don't have to try and find someone for myself. She's not completely wrong, but I'm doing all this because I have to prove my worth to someone. Finding a partner is something I just don't have time for not until I find my own worth.
I signal Sneha to come back in and then my phone rings again.
I check, it's an unknown number so I let it ring. It's the 4th time I guess I was busy with other calls so it went by...
"Sneha book a table for 2 at Our Restaurant by 7pm" I say typing on my phone.
"So he's going?" She whispers
"Say what? I didn't catch you Sneha!" I get louder.
"I mean so Mrs. Sharma convinced you to go? Do I need to push you Kapoor meeting earlier?" She asks
"No there's no need. I hope you don't talk about your boss behind his back again. You can leave"
