Protagonists:
Kanyaka a.k.a Khanak (Age 23):
She is in her Final year at Law school. She is an average today's girl. very much like me and you. She lives with her parents, Chachoo chachi, cousins Anvesha and Kavi and an aged paternal aunt who has remained unmarried. Her family comes from money but they are no tata birlas. Just a well to do family.
Shantam a.k.a Shaan (Age 27):
He works for a private company. He has done his Bachelors from India but went abroad for his Masters degree. He lives in a small but separate apartment and not with his parents. He has an elder sister who is married and lives in Houston, Texas U.S.A. His family like Khanak's also belongs to the upper middle class and they lead a comfortable life.
Lets do a little role casting now😃
We decided to cast YM for Kanyaka's role.Duh😆
And then we held deliberations on Shatam's.
I wanted KSG ( though I am not a KSG/Armaan fan, I owe him a lot because he made my MOTW so mastiful 😆 and because some members want to see him and YM together on screen in the future, including me. hehe)
Yummy hates KSG with the fire of a thousand suns and wanted GK (Of course😆) *zenny rolls her eyes*
And then of'course since KT is synonymous with Shaan for everyone here, he was the obvious third choice😃
So we have decided to cast all three of them as 'Shantam'. Jisko jisse bhi YM kay saat imagine karna hai kar lo. free choice hai. you see we are two very generous souls 😆
But seriously guys, the thing we want to convey is that the ShaNak in our story are completely different from the one on the show. He's ordinary and she's ordinary. No beautiful smiles, no gazillion second long eye-locks, no tripping and catching and no girls drooling all over. We wanted to clear this up because we don't want our readers to be disappointed by the lack of similarities they may find between this ShaNak and the the show's ShaNak and most importantly Yasharan, in appearance or otherwise😊 you guys must have noticed that the couple only share their nicknames with the real shanak. Their real names are different; Kanyaka and Shatam.
The first part will be up tonight! hope you guys like it as much as we enjoyed writing it!
Till then,
Yummy and Zenny.
