Gulab's Longing is a poetic tale set in the quiet vastness of the Cholistan Desert, where silence speaks louder than words and longing becomes a sacred companion. Gulab, a young girl burdened by an unnamed sadness, searches for meaning in the dry winds, the moon's silence, and the stillness of a shrine. Her world shifts when she meets Shams—a mysterious traveler whose presence stirs something dormant within her. But when he vanishes without a word, Gulab is left with only his memory and the echo of his wisdom.

As she returns to the shrine and begins to rebuild her life, Gulab discovers that longing is not a void, but a source of strength. Through quiet transformation, reconnection with her family, and the resilience of her spirit, she learns to live with the ache—and finds beauty in its persistence.

A lyrical meditation on solitude, emotional growth, and the sacredness of yearning, this is a story of desert winds, moonlit prayers, and the kind of love that leaves you changed, even in its absence.
