“He was a chapter. I’m the whole book. Publishing soon.”

Arushi and Ravi are shown as a mismatched yet endearing couple, navigating city life. Arushi’s friends joke about her tendency to overcommit to work, while Ravi tries to balance his passion for cooking with his 9-to-5 job.

The caption goes viral, and Arushi is stunned to learn he’s now a successful tech entrepreneur in 2024.
