"The Heirs of Ruin and Romance"
Episode 1
My family had been forcing me to get married for God knows how many years.
But honestly?
Marriage was never part of my plan.
That morning, just when I was preparing for an important office meeting…
Aparna Mehra
"Shivansh beta, today we’re going to meet a girl for your rishta. Come home early from the office."(smiling)
Shivansh Mehra
"Mom, I have an important meeting. I can’t just—"
Aparna Mehra
"I don’t want to hear any excuses. We’re going, and that’s final."(firmly)
Shivansh Mehra
"But Mom, I don’t want to get married!"(irritated)
Aparna Mehra
"All boys your age are already married. Don’t I have the right to see my daughter-in-law’s face?"(emotional face)
I took a deep breath, knowing there was no way out of this.
Shivansh Mehra
"Fine. I’ll come. But on one condition—if I don’t like the girl, you guys won’t force me into anything."
Aparna Mehra
"Alright. That’s fair."(happy)
I had no intention of liking anyone. But saying no again and again was becoming a headache. So I agreed. Just to shut everyone up.
Later at home while getting ready
The whole family was buzzing with excitement.
Aditya Mehra
"You’re looking good, beta. Don’t overthink. Just go with the flow."(adjusting his glasses)
Shivansh Mehra
"That's the problem, Papa. The flow always ends in a wedding."(dryly)
Kritika Mehra
"I keep telling Karan too to see a girl and settle down. He just keeps running away like Shivansh."
Shivansh Mehra
"Don’t worry, Chachi. Let one of us get sacrificed first, then it’ll be Karan’s turn."(smirking)
Karan Mehra
"Thanks for the warning, Bhai. I’ll make sure to run faster now."(rolling his eyes)
Kiara Mehra
"Poor girl! Whoever marries you two is signing up for double trouble."(laughing)
Kritika Mehra
"You three fight like kids. Let’s get going before the girl’s family thinks we’ve backed out."(laughing)
Kiara Mehra
Where is Papa ma?
Karan Mehra
Leave it Kia i don't wanna spoil my mood let's go bhabhi must be waiting for us (smirking)
The car ride was filled with teasing and laughter.
After thirty minutes we were standing near a beautiful Banglow
We entered through the grand arched gate of the house. It wasn’t huge like our mansion, but definitely luxurious—modern architecture blended with classic detailing, sprawling lawns, clean stone pavements, and blooming bougainvillea climbing the sides. The kind of elegance that whispers money instead of screaming it
House keeper
"Please come in, sir. Have seat Let me call ma'am ."
He led us into a spacious living room filled with warm tones—cream walls, antique-style furniture, minimal yet expensive decor. There was a quiet kind of charm here. Cozy but rich. Somehow familiar…
Aparna Mehra
Smiling politely “It’s beautiful, na Shivansh?”
Shivansh Mehra
“Haan maa, very tastefully done.”(soft chuckle)
Just then, a woman stepped in—elegantly dressed in a crisp saree, her presence calm and confident. Must be the girl’s mother.
Samaira Bhalla
“Namaste… Welcome! I'm so glad you all came. Please, make yourselves comfortable.”
Aditya Mehra
“Namaste Samaira ji. We are pleased to meet you
Kritika Mehra
“We’ve heard a lot about you. You run your own business, right?”
Samaira Bhalla
“Yes… a small one, but keeps me on my toes.”(smiling)
The house helpers soon arrived with trays of steaming coffee, dry fruit platters, and delicate snacks. The kind of hospitality that made you feel at home yet clearly reminded you—you’re in a rich household.
Samaira Bhalla
“Beta, Ishira… come meet everyone!”
I looked towards the hallway as soft footsteps approached. And then I froze.
Shivansh Mehra
“You… Ishira?!”
There she was. Dressed in a deep royal blue suit with floral prints, looking effortlessly graceful. Her hair flowing, eyes lined perfectly, and that same spark that used to drive me crazy back then.
Shivansh Mehra
“No… I mean… my rishta came for you?!”(shocked, Confused)
Ishira Bhalla
“Yeah… I guessed the moment I saw you. And honestly? Even I didn’t know you were coming to see me.”(laughing softly)
Karan Mehra
“Bhaiya and to be bhabhi seem like… old friends, hmm?”(whispering to Kiara)
Kiara Mehra
“Definitely. I think I should start diting so I can enjoy wedding food without any guilt (whispering to Karan)
