A Tale of Young Love as A Fresh Romantic Journey Unfolds

Nadaaniyan is a young adult romantic drama that captures the magic, madness, and innocence of first love. At its heart are Piya, a bold and spirited girl from South Delhi, and Arjun, a determined middle-class boy from Noida. As their two completely different worlds collide, they embark on a journey filled with mischief, heart, and the sweet messiness of first love.”
With an engaging storyline that blends emotions, humor, and romance, Nadaaniyan promises to deliver a heartfelt narrative that resonates with young audiences.
