A perfect disaster - or a perfect match? Find out in this heartfelt rom-com novella....

"Just three dates. That's all I'm asking. One boy shares your sense of humor. Another has similar interests and ideals. The third boy has a helpful heart like yours."

When Aditi Gupta comes home late from work as a pediatric resident one night and her grandfather offers this pitch, she reluctantly agrees. She's far too busy with med school to be dating, and besides, she dreams of a love for the ages, like her parents, not an arranged marriage. And yet she finds herself agreeing to three dates because she loves her grandfather. All she has to do is make herself utterly ineligible and problem solved!

And sure enough her first date with the disgustingly handsome and intriguing Krishna Lal goes exactly as planned: not well! But then the second date comes around and Aditi finds that there is more at stake than just three bad dates. Suddenly, her heart is on the line, and maybe her grandfather's, too.

Loved the prologue to an amazing story, however the pronunciations of some typical Indian words could have been better. I know that shouldn't matter but it kinda pulled me out of the immersion 😅

Great Oneshot with weird Indian pronunciations

The story and situation is so cute, perfect for a Rom Com movie worthy of a Robert de neiro cast. The narration was however with total lack of emotion , especially the female voice which felt like she was over stressing on her pronunciation skills rather than acting or story telling . The only good performances were of side roles of Gulabo aunty and nani dadu etc .

Very cute story but no emotions in narration
