Love Story: When Life Gives You A Second Chance

By Shatavisha Chakravorty

Many of us are of the belief that we need to be perfect in order to please our loved ones. Some of us even go to the extent of thinking that unless and until we are perfect, no one will love us.

But that is far from being true. The fact is that when someone loves you genuinely, he or she will love ad accept you with all your flaws and shortcomings.

This is exactly what happened in the case of Anandi. This poor girl always felt that her past would hinder her future and that she could never enjoy a life that was filled with love and had marital bliss in it.

However, the play of destiny is always unique. That is something we, as human beings, have no say over. So, read on to know more about the story of Anandi and how her life ultimately had a 'happily ever after' ending.

However, that was far from being true. In a couple of months, Anandi realized that she was being abused in the relationship. The night when Raghav was home drunk and started hitting her for no apparent fault of hers, that was when she realized enough was enough and that she should call off her marriage.

The very next day she filed for a divorce and in about a month's time, the couple was legally separated.

As easy as the process of seeking divorce was, the process of accepting the same was equally difficult. Anandi fared very bad at that. Seeing her struggle so much was a pain for her kith and kin. It was at this stage that her parents encouraged her to go for therapy sessions.

It was during her therapy sessions that she met this new psychologist Dr. Aman Koushik. Fresh out of college, this Patiala-born boy provided her the much-needed solace and in a couple of months, Anandi recovered and went on to lead a normal life.

At the same time, they were scared about what would happen to her once they were no more. All of this put them in a dilemma and that made them take months to arrive at a worthy conclusion. Ultimately, they agreed to the proposal.
