    Summary

    He closed his eyes in a futile attempt to hold his tears back and folded his hands in prayer. Dil halka ho jayega his mother had advised: so, he offered up the words that unfurled and rose from the sanctum-sanctorum of his heart.
    Help me find someone who will make me question the world’s right to turn without them. Help me find someone who sees the secrets of Life, Death and everything in between in me, just like you saw the Mahavidyas in Sati.

    Summary

    This takes place before the events of the movie. The story goes through everything from their first meeting, to their first kiss, to their first fight and so much more. I still can’t believe we barely got glimpses of the boys falling in love in the movie. There will be some angst, but mostly a lot of fluff.

    Summary

    “What does it say?”
    Aman hugged Kartik closer. “It’s one of Tagore’s”
    If he closed his eyes, Aman was still able to hear a faint echo of the simple, joyous melody of the song from when he had heard it last years ago.
    Aalo aamaar, aalo ogo…
    “Light, my light, the world-filling light, the eye-kissing light, the light that has taken root in my heart!
    Ah, the light dances, my darling, at the centre of my life; the light plays, my darling, with the chords of my heart;
    Mirth spreads from leaf to leaf, my darling, and gladness without measure. Heaven has drowned its banks and the world is flooded with joy”
