What if Cinderella hadn't been reckless enough to drop her glass slippers on the steps of Prince Charming's palace? What if someone else had retrieved her glass slippers before the Prince?

Phew, only if we lived in fairytales! But, reality waves back at us.

Throughout our life span, we cause a ruckus on the Earth, and to avenge us, circumstances laid by fate beautifully play with our hearts. Fair, isn't it? Sometimes we get the right person at the wrong time or vice-versa. Then, obviously what follows next is a nasty heartbreak with pain, tears, and denials...

But, should it hinder us from grabbing the choice to choose the right person again?

Or, give up a precious second chance at love, foolishly drowning in the earlier heartbreak? Lalit Khandelwal and Simran Singh are simply not two peas in a single pod. Both are of dynamically opposite polarity yet he remains her father's first choice for her.

"Papa, he is not a doctor." She had tried to reason her denial, hiding her true intentions behind the refusal. The world need not know that Simran Singh was not immune to rejections and neither handled them well. 'How can they choose Richa over me at first?' This question still gripped her thoughts many times.

His grandfather found her cousin, Richa, more compatible with Lalit. They got engaged, and everything seemed perfect until things complicated and went downhill. Image issues for business partners from reputed families led to this new proposal: "Simran would marry Lalit."

Sounds smooth, isn't it? Yet, it's not.

Who said, time waits?

Destiny had already played its role as Simran found herself an appealing man, who wasn't Lalit. She never expected her dying father to propose a Marriage cum Business Contract as a pre-condition to claim her ancestral rights. She signed for her rights and to respect her father's wishes, but this time around, Lalit refused to be a pawn in her father's game.

Nonetheless, Simran's tenacity would never let her lose the game!

Hence, the wait was to tell if these vows bound by business would ever turn into vows of love or just remain Simran's weapon to acquire her rights.

On the other hand, Will Lalit be able to save himself from Simran's persistent and crooked efforts to hitch him into a loveless contract marriage?

Lalit is helpful, but Simran is insecure.

Lalit loves her, and Simran needs him to retain her ancestral rights.

Lalit protects her, and Simran has selfish reasons to allure him.

What happens when she conspires with his best friend to trick him?

Sounds like a typical cliché plot? But have you ever experienced-

Just when you think you got it all figured out, just when you finally begin to plan something, get excited about it, and feel like you know what direction you are heading to, the paths change, the signs change, and the wind blows the other way, the North is suddenly South and the East is West and you are lost. That's why, they say - Be carelessly careful!

Peep in to know the journey of Simran from being a troubled princess to becoming the queen of Lalit's heart.
