They say you fall in love with the most unexpected person at the most unexpected time. So you can be Ron and fall for Hermoine when she yells at you, or be Eleven and fall for Mike when he explains what a Snow Ball means.
But what if, Jack from Titanic falls in love with Twilight's Bella, or Kartik from Shubh Mangal Zyaada Savdhaan falls in love with Kota Factory's Jeetu Bhaiya?
It's Valentine month, the month of romance, so let's go creative with our imaginations and write an India Forums' What If...? series, that may not compete with Marvel's What If...? series, but can help Steve find someone who is not a superhero from the MCU.
Without making this more dramatic (and less dreamy) let us come to the point.
We are in February, the month of love, and the year is 2021, the year of new beginnings (fingers crossed). And this is the "Play the Cupid" contest!
So, this contest gives you a chance to become Akshay Kumar from Ajnabee and switch partners (you can't kill someone though!)
Participants have to write a One-Shot about two characters from different movies/books/shows falling in love and hoping for new beginnings. But there is a catch, you will be paired with another dreamy-eyed writer, and the two of you will write the story as a team, in bits and pieces. Just that, you will not know who your partner is (a blind date gone wrong, if you may) For more details, scroll down!
