Jhanvi; Age - 25

Sensitive, Introvert, Resilient, Compassionate.

Jhanvi is a survivor who hides her pain behind a quiet exterior. She was raised in a conservative household, where expectations were high. Initially, she comes across as fragile, but she shows her inner strength and determination to reclaim her identity. She carries a deep emotional wound from her past. She used to be a happy, full-of-life kind of girl, but not everything lasts forever.

Jhanvi is striking in her appearance, with long, sleek hair that frames her face beautifully. Her sharp features give her an air of sophistication and elegance. She tends to dress mostly in traditions but in a way that blends style and on the safe, conservative side, reflecting her cautious nature. There's something delicate about the way she holds herself, often giving off a vibe of quiet vulnerability that she tries to mask behind. Though she’s always polished on the outside, her inner world is more complex than anyone can see. Her fear of vulnerability makes her guarded.

"I used to laugh without thinking. Now, I think too much to even smile."

Sia; Age - 25

Courageous, Smart, Creative, Independent

Sia embraces challenges, make independent choices. Sia is both a dreamer and a realist, torn between the two worlds. Sia has an effortlessly graceful aura. Her long, dark hair flows with a natural wave, often tied back in a messy bun when she’s deep in thought, but her eyes — her eyes are her most striking feature. Almond-shaped and dark, they often mirror her emotions — the confusion, the hope, and the determination. She dresses casually, yet her clothes have a certain style that makes her look effortlessly put together — always looking comfortable but undeniably confident.

"Sia didn't find her strength in the light — she found it in surviving the dark."

Harsh Agarwal; Age - 28

Confident, well-spoken, slightly arrogant, charming.

Harsh has a natural charm that draws people to him. His strong, chiseled features make him undeniably handsome, with a slightly rugged appeal that only adds to his attractiveness. His dark, wavy hair is often perfectly styled, and he has a confident, easygoing air about him that makes him stand out in any crowd. His smile is infectious, and his eyes, filled with mischief and intelligence, always seem to sparkle when he's in a good mood. He dresses well, usually in smart casuals, always looking effortlessly polished but never overdone. Harsh is the type of guy who can make a simple t-shirt and jeans look like a fashion statement.

Harsh is the type of guy who exudes confidence in everything he does. People notice him not just because of his looks but because of his personality. While his confidence can sometimes tip into arrogance, it’s not off-putting. In fact, it’s part of what makes him magnetic. He’s a "sunshine boy" always bringing positive energy into a room. Harsh is the kind of person who can lift your spirits without even trying, and his optimism and charisma make him an enjoyable person to be around. However, his charm and easy-going nature sometimes make people underestimate him, thinking he’s just a carefree, charming guy with no depth. He is deeply loyal to those he cares about and has a soft spot for the people closest to him.

"Admit it. Life's better with me in it."

Viraj Chauhan; Age - 30

Controlling, possessive, manipulative, outwardly charming, mysterious.

Viraj has a striking, enigmatic presence. Tall and athletic, with sharp features and intense dark eyes. His style is impeccably polished: suits, leather jackets, expensive watches — he dresses with a quiet, calculated confidence that matches his personality. His smile is rare but disarming, making it easy for people to trust him even when they shouldn't. At first glance, Viraj seems charismatic, composed, and mysteriously alluring. He knows exactly what to say and how to say it to pull people in. His charm is deliberate, masking a much darker, more controlling nature beneath the surface. Viraj is deeply possessive of the people he cares about — or rather, the people he wants to control. He believes he knows best and often manipulates situations to maintain dominance. He hates losing control and will do whatever it takes to keep the people he loves (or obsesses over) close, even if it means crossing moral lines. Viraj’s relationships are intense, passionate, and unhealthy. He gives attention, affection, and romance — but all with invisible chains. He’s a product of his upbringing — his need to control everything around him stems from insecurity and an overwhelming need for power.

"Some men give roses. I give promises — the kind you can’t escape from."

Amaya Kashap; Age - 25

Supportive, caring, loyal, nurturing, bold, fearless.

Amaya has an effortless beauty — warm, inviting eyes, an expressive smile that immediately makes you feel seen, and a confident posture that speaks louder than words. She dresses casually but with a touch of boldness: leather jackets, statement jewelry, vibrant colors — she wears her heart and her fire on her sleeve. Amaya is the best kind of strong. She’s nurturing and motherly toward the people she loves, but when needed, she turns fierce — the kind of woman who stands between her loved ones and the storm without blinking.
She’s loyal to the bone, the one who will defend you behind your back and hold you up when you fall.

Fear? She feels it — but it never stops her. Amaya isn’t reckless — she’s just brave enough to move forward even when she’s scared. She believes in people fiercely. Sometimes more than they believe in themselves. She's the friend who’ll stay up all night listening to you cry, then show up the next morning ready to fight your battles with you.

"She’s fire wrapped in kindness."

Naitik Sinha; Age - 30

Calm, rational, empathetic, trustworthy. A successful businessman, composed, and emotionally intelligent.

Naitik carries himself with quiet elegance. Always sharply dressed — not flashy, but effortlessly put together. A subtle watch, neatly styled hair, calm eyes that observe more than they reveal. Naitik is the definition of still waters run deep. He’s emotionally intelligent, thoughtful, and speaks only when he has something meaningful to say. He’s not cold — just controlled. You won’t see him panic, raise his voice, or act impulsively.
He listens — really listens — and when he gives advice, it’s like a lighthouse guiding through fog.
He’s also quietly empathetic, sensing what others need even when they don’t say it aloud. Trustworthy to the core, Naitik is the kind of man people instinctively confide in.
In business, he’s calm under pressure, and in relationships, he's steady — not possessive, not dramatic. Just there, in the most comforting way.

"Peace isn’t something I look for. It’s something I bring."
