Ananya is a playful South Delhi girl in her late twenties and has the best life a girl of her age could ask for. She had a lavish life, amazing friends, doting parents, a flourishing career, and a perfect boyfriend. She was someone who planned even the fun things in life. Things changed when she met Agastya. When she met him she never knew what all would change and so would she! No one can plan it all. Ananya realized this when she sought a path that was only going to be painful. Love can change people, directions, and the purpose of life. For Ananya it was just going to get worse. Every step she took towards an unplanned life brought her closer to reality which burst her bubble of a perfect life. Agastya was the perfect boy a girl would want. Was he really that? Agastya had a thrill for life and new adventures. He was feisty and had a hunger for more. Nothing was ever enough for him. Dhruv was Ananya’s perfect boyfriend. He was crazily in love with her. He made her smile, but did he make her happy The night when Ananya and Agastya first meet each other they feel a connection. It wasn’t planned for either of them. They could just not stay away from each other. The attraction was magnetic, and they just happened. The intimacy, excitement, wit and humor made up the void Ananya had and was never aware of. The story explores what Ananya wanted and was what she wanted right for her. She does realize no one is right about what they want for themselves. Not in love. She also understood sometimes sacrifices bring pain and no one can plan to avoid pain in life. She often wondered should love to be stable or exciting. Should love be monotonous or eclectic? She feels lost, alone, changed, and sad after her exciting love story takes twists and turns. She realized you cannot get all in love.
