Some love stories are loud.

Theirs began in silence — in deep breaths, in camera clicks, in the quiet knowing that something special was unfolding.

In December 2023, Rishabha Garg, a finance professional from Gwalior, living in Muscat, matched with Shraddha Verma, a celebrity yoga instructor from Nanpara, now based in Chennai, on Aisle. Two souls with very different rhythms — hers flowing with breath, movement, and mindfulness; his grounded in logic, structure, and still frames.

But what united them was more than a dating app — it was a shared curiosity, a calm connection, and the subtle gravity that pulls soulmates toward each other.

He was passionate about photography, seeing the world through light and shadow.

She was devoted to yoga, helping others move toward balance and truth.

Both of them, in their own ways, were seekers.

For weeks, they remained friends — just voices and thoughts, exchanged across cities and time zones.

Then came 2024… and a bold decision: to meet for the very first time during the Maha Kumbh, one of the holiest gatherings on Earth.

And so, on February 14th, 2025 — Valentine’s Day — destiny brought them face to face for the first time, not in a fancy cafe, but at Batohi Dhaba.

A humble stop on a sacred journey. Over chai, smiles, and simple food, something unspoken passed between them: this was the beginning of something rare.

What followed was a spiritual journey that mirrored their emotional one.

In Prayagraj, they stood at the Triveni Sangam, where three sacred rivers merge. Surrounded by thousands, they dipped into the holy waters — two hearts slowly becoming one current. In that sacred confluence, their connection deepened, without a word.

Next came Kashi, the eternal city. The Ganga Aarti wasn’t happening during their visit, but the city gave them a deeper silence. They walked through ancient alleyways, visited hidden temples, and sat by the river. Rishabha captured moments through his lens; Shraddha felt them through breath. Without ceremony or show, Kashi wrapped them in its stillness — as if the city itself was giving them space to just be.

And finally, Ayodhya — the city of devotion. In the calm and color of the sacred land, their friendship transformed. Maybe it was in the shared prayers, or the way they began walking in step without noticing. Maybe it was simply time. But somewhere between those temple bells and flickering diyas, love found them.

Not a sudden kind of love — a deep, grounding one. The kind that feels like home.

Shraddha, with her inner light and graceful energy, brought breath into Rishabha’s world.

Rishabha, with his calm lens and steady presence, brought focus and peace into hers.

Now, from Chennai to Muscat, their hearts stay tethered — through voice notes, travel dreams, shared silences, and love that was first whispered on riverbanks and temple steps.

This isn’t just a love story.

It’s their Maha Kumbh — a once-in-a-lifetime meeting, blessed by spirit, stitched with fate, and captured forever in memory.

And it all began…

with a match, a dhaba, a river,

and a moment on Valentine’s Day

when the stars quietly aligned.
