Call It Coincidence

‘Naina, Naina, Naina, I hear Vatsal’s voice calling out to me,

you’re falling in love with me, aren’t you?’

Meet Naina: a twenty-five-year-old with big dreams and a sceptical heart, searching for love that lasts and a job that doesn’t make her dread mornings.

Enter Vatsal: a charming, unpredictable twenty-eight-year-old lawyer-to-be, interning in Delhi before jetting off to London for his master’s degree.

Their worlds collide unexpectedly, leading to a whirlwind first date. Naina feels an instant connection, like fate brought them together. In days, they go from strangers to friends, best friends and then something more. Everyone thinks it’s just a matter of a few days until they make it official, call it love. How could they not, when it feels this right?

But then comes the Diwali party—the best and worst day of Naina’s life. A devastating event shatters their bond, and they don’t speak. For three whole years.

As fate would have it, Naina and Vatsal meet again. This time, Naina is cautious; Vatsal overfamiliar. Everything feels just as intense as it once did—but can Naina handle the pain that took her years to overcome, if at all? And can Vatsal fight his fears and stay to watch Naina overcome it?
