Sidharth Raizada (30)

The eldest and the most haunted. A man of few words and countless regrets. His mind is a fortress; his heart, a graveyard of promises never kept. Once deeply in love with Nimrit, he lost her to his own pride—and perhaps, to fate itself. Known for his ruthless business acumen, he hides his pain behind a mask of perfection. Yet, every night, when the house sleeps, he still sees her eyes in the dark.

Shaurya Raizada (28)

The middle son, a master of masks. Calm, calculating, and ambitious, Shaurya lives by logic, not emotion. Politics is his battlefield and words, his weapons. He marries Isha—not for love, but for an alliance. But Isha's unpredictable fire tests the limits of his control, drawing out a buried vulnerability he swore never to show. His love story will be a war of wills—and only one heart will survive unscarred.

---

Aavyansh Raizada (25)

The youngest, the rebel. Charming to the point of sin, reckless to the point of ruin. His laughter hides the ache of loss—the orphaned boy raised in luxury but never feeling at home. He falls for Aaradhya, the one woman who sees the man behind the façade. She teaches him stillness, while he teaches her how to breathe again. Together, they're poetry—beautiful, chaotic, and inevitable.

---

Isha (21)

A storm in human form. Impulsive, bold, and brutally honest. She hates routine, rules, and the cage of expectations. When she marries Shaurya to escape her academic prison, she finds herself in another—one made of politics and lies. But Isha doesn't break; she burns brighter. Beneath her chaos lies an aching need to be truly seen—and Shaurya, whether he likes it or not, begins to see her.

---

Aaradhya (22)

Soft-spoken, traditional, and deeply intuitive. Raised to believe in the sanctity of love and family, she carries an old soul in a young heart. Her silence speaks more than words. But behind her serenity lies fire—one that Aavyansh's recklessness will unknowingly awaken. Together, they will redefine what love means: not perfection, but acceptance.

---

Nimrit (26)

Elegant, independent, and wounded. Once in love with Sidharth, she walked away when his ambition shattered her trust. Years later, fate brings them face-to-face again, and the past they buried refuses to stay dead. Nimrit has learned to survive alone—but Sidharth reminds her what it feels like to live. Their story is one of redemption, pain, and the slow rebirth of something once thought lost forever.
