"Beneath the Iron Heart and Silver Tears" is a gripping romantic thriller that intertwines love, trauma, betrayal, and the shadows of a criminal empire. Siddharth Rathore, 27, is the arrogant, emotionally distant son of a powerful criminal lawyer and mafia kingpin. Known for his uncontrollable anger and ruthless decisions, he is a man feared more than loved. He hates his father, Aarav Rathore, for reasons buried deep in a twisted past, and while his mother remains his only emotional anchor, Siddharth has grown up despising most of the world—especially women. Aaradhya Malhotra, 25, is a soft-spoken yet determined actress. A tragic past haunts her: she lost her father to a mysterious murder during a rainy day in a cricket stadium and her mother was kidnapped and killed. Her trauma left her with a paralyzing fear of rain and a heart full of silent grief. Yet, she rose against all odds to become a respected name in the industry. Their worlds collide when Siddharth, captivated by Aaradhya’s silent strength, crosses paths with her. She is not charmed by his wealth or power—her indifference challenges him more than anything. As Aaradhya unknowingly steps into a world of bloodied secrets, Siddharth finds himself drawn into her kindness, her pain, and her broken smile. What begins as an emotionally charged relationship becomes a journey of healing—until Siddharth’s father is found murdered, and the blame falls on him. In a devastating twist, the real killer lurks closer than expected, with plans that shake both their foundations. Together, Siddharth and Aaradhya embark on a mission to uncover the truth behind Aarav's murder, Aaradhya’s childhood trauma, and the secrets that bind their destinies. Through storms—both literal and emotional—they begin to heal. But the mafia never lets go that easily, and their love is soon put to the ultimate test. Packed with emotional depth, sharp character arcs, mystery, and romance, this story is an ideal adaptation for TV or web drama—blending the intensity of dark thrillers with the tenderness of emotionally rich love stories.

The Leper King's Healer

After a tragic accident that sent her back 845 years in time to the year 1177, in the Middle Ages, during the reign of Baldwin IV of Jerusalem, Kate Mitchell, a wealthy business tycoon in the pharmaceutical industry, a gifted ex-military, a pharmacologist and botanist, and a brilliant archer from 2022, wakes up as Lady Philippa, a pretty, innocent, frail, and proper young lady of House Antioch, with whom she shares nothing in common. She realised she had died on that day, and her soul travels back in time and takes over the body of Philippa, a helpless lady who would face tragedy, betrayal, and scandal before dying young and heartbroken. She chose to live as Philippa because she had a second chance at life and only one goal in mind: to live and survive at any cost. To succeed, she must thrive and learn to live in the Medieval era, where nothing is common for her, and, above all, she must avoid an arranged marriage, which will doom Phillipa to death after a terrible heartbreak. Lady Philippa, unfortunately, is about to be engaged to an unknown man, and she must devise a plan to prevent this from happening. Kate's background as an ex-military officer, pharmacologist, and botanist, as well as her limited knowledge of history, will be invaluable in surviving the historical mediaeval times when modern technology was out of reach. However, she requires the assistance of the reigning king, Baldwin IV, who is suffering from leprosy at the time. She'll have to take control of the situation. It is up to Kate's bravery and intelligence to find a way to persuade Baldwin IV to help her, and she has few options other than joining his royal court. Will the king accept her, or will she perish as the body's original owner? Will she be able to change her destiny? Alternatively, will she be able to find the love and family she seeks?
