Concept
***********************************************
The story is not new, but hopefully, with a new touch. Its the same old story, of a guy, an extrovert, and a girl, an introvert. The guy is in love with her, or maybe, its infatuaion, or attraction, or a challenge, anything. Attraction or infatuation, becoz the girl is pretty, though she doesnt show it, challenge, becoz the girl does not fall in love with him, and love, becoz to a true person, the girl is the most beautiful human inside as well as outside. What happens when the guy tries hard to please her, does she fall for him, or does he falls and actually fails in love?

Character Sketch:
Meet Armaan Mallik, 21, the dashing young superstar of 'Divine College'. Cool, hot, sexy, suave, well, words finished but his description never ended. Great physique, extremely handsome, well, girls all around drooled over him. His million dollar smile flashing those big dimples, was a killer. A big flirt, an all rounder in college, topper academically as well, he didnt remember the number of girls he had gone around with. Actually he'd lost the count the day he had realised tht he was every girl's dream, and trust me, it wasnt recently. An over possessive brother, number one in pranks, but a good guy at heart. He hasnt ever actually hurt a girl, and has a secret, which he tries to hide from everyone, after all college reputation is at stake, but someone discovers it. He doesnt believe in relationships, nah, not parent problem. In fact his parents are the best, one cud wish for, the most loving and caring ones, but still, he hates relationships, and there's just no reason for it.
Now lets meet Riddhima Gupta, 20, the sweet, the creative, the silent girl. Brought up by her Chachu N Chachi, coz her parents had died long ago. Extremely beautiful, she hides her true self. She also doesnt believe in relationships, but she has a reason. Her childhood had been a painful one, her parents had fights constantly, with her mother being beaten finally. This had broken her trust from all relations. Finally, her parents had died in an accident, n her Chachu and Chachi took her with them. She was brought up by them with lots of love, but it cudnt fill the emptiness that had been created in her heart. She loves them a lot too, but that doesnt change anything. She wants to fulfil her mom's dream for her, which is to own a very renowned magazine of her own, becoz her mom had recognised the budding cretivity in her, and allows nothing to come in her way, not even love, if she ever falls in love that is. She too is an all rounder, but doesnt show her excellence in anything except studies, due to her very very reserved nature. She doesnt makes friends easily, and no one knows the true Riddhima, no one, she just doesnt shares her feelings with anyone, but, except, her sweet diary.
Divine College, her new college, is different experience for her (she has changed her college), she discovers the biggest secret of the most popular guy in the college, but does this guy changes her life too?
What happens in college as Armaan meets Riddhima, life changes, but does it change for both of them? Keep reading to know more.

That was the intro and the character sketch, i know it was a little long, but that was it. I cannot promise to start early, but i'll try asap.
Aimee di, i wanted to say tht i had started with a fresh concept in my mind, but somehow, posting Riddhima's family's sketch, i felt it resembled the family of Riddhima in 'Mere Apne'. I know it may seem like tht to some point, but trust me, the further story shall not be so. I wanted to apologise if anyone was hurt by this.
Friends, plz tell if i shud continue,
pooja
