Disclaimer : It is Majorly a PreRish story. When Prerna Sharma fell in love, she hoped about roses and forgot the thorns. She saw the world through rose tinted glasses and forgot that it was an illusion. She dreamt of fairytales and forgot life's reality. Maybe, that's why her love became another name for sacrifice. She sacrificed herself, and married Rishabh Bajaj, in return of her love, Anurag's life.When Anurag Basu fell in love, he took his own sweet time to realise the same because he never believed in a concept as cliche as love. But Prerna's free spirit and non stop talks drew him to her soul and they fell in soul stirring love, the one their destiny didn't support. Maybe that's why his love became another name for the betrayal he received when Prerna married someone else.When Rishabh Bajaj married Prerna, he wasn't looking for love in his life, he was looking for love in his daughter's life, but somewhere down the road, he fell in love with his daughter's mother, and her goodness. He didn't know if he would have a happy end, if his wife would ever love him back, but he knew he had the courage to love her through the thick and thins even if she didn't reciprocate.When Snigdha Mallik had walked into Basu group of industries, she was seeking a job, and ended up finding love. She knew the man she loved, loved someone else. She saw Anurag pining for her everyday, but that didn't resolve her own feelings. They just continued to grow deeper. She didn't know if Anurag would ever see her love, or feel it, but she knew that she would hold his hand through whatever obstacle he needs her to.A love saga, trying to find a logic and respect for the characters of Indian Television Series, Kasautii Zindagi Kay!…
