Crossroads: A Tale of Love and Duty

Some connections transcend time distance and even the most carefully constructed lives. Aryan and Vertika’s love story began in the halls of St. Xavier’s College—a tender romance between two scholarship students who shared dreams study sessions and stolen moments under the banyan tree. But fate intervened separating them before their love could fully bloom. Years later both have built successful lives with loving spouses and children. Aryan thrives as a banker with his devoted wife Ayena while Vertika teaches literature married to businessman Vikram. Their worlds seem complete until a single phone call shatters the carefully maintained boundaries of their separate existences.

Their secret reconnection threatens to destroy everything they’ve built yet neither can resist the magnetic force that has bound them across the years. Crossroads is a deeply moving exploration of love’s enduring power the weight of moral choices and the courage required to choose duty over desire. It asks the profound question: Can we truly move forward without proper closure from our past?
