He's never gotten over his first love. She's coming out of an abusive relationship with a life changing secret. Will their newly formed bond be strong enough to weather the coming storm? Indo is a headstrong romantic who never really overcame his separation from his childhood sweetheart, Mahi. When he gets involved with Jasleen, life takes an unexpected turn, one that he doesn't see coming.
