Our story

Two cities, one classroom.

Anand and Soumya grew up hundreds of kilometres apart, and somehow ended up in the same MBA classroom — trading notes, arguing over case studies, and losing track of time in the library together. Two years in, it wasn’t just an assignment they’d finished — it was a life they’d decided to build. A love marriage, blessed by both families.
