Plot

Season 1

The show starts with sisters Nupur and Gunjan Bhushan coming from rural Morena to Mumbai to join Excel College. They are cousins of "Queen Bee" Dia and Uday. Dia and Uday are horrified by hearing their Morena cousins are going to join their college. They do everything in their power to make the sisters go back but all fails.

This eventually introduces Samrat (college basketball star) and his best friend Benji. Samrat later becomes best friends with Mayank after a while of them not getting along. Mayank is a silent but strong-willed student who prefers to focus on his studies, whereas Samrat is the playboy of the college and the college heartthrob for all girls, including Diya. Mayank and Nupur start to fall in love after a series of misadventures. Gunjan and Samrat become best friends and eventually Gunjan falls in love with Samrat but is unable to express her love because he only thinks of Gunjan to be his best friend.

A new character enters Excel college to be part of the college play, Sheena. Sheena is a talented student actor and the centre of attention for boys. She has a liking for Samrat and soon Samrat also starts liking her. They begin dating. Gunjan doesn't interfere and wishes all the best for them despite her love for Samrat. Another character enters named Ranvijay. He is a daredevil, arrogant, bad boy who wants everything his way. He starts to have an interest in Diya. He later on captures Diya in his trap and she falls in love with him, to Samrat's disliking. While Diya and Ranvijay are busy in their relationship, Sheena finds out that Gunjan loves Samrat and does all she can in order to keep them apart by telling Samrat to give up his friendship with Gunjan. Samrat is shocked and tells Gunjan, who to his surprise, is more than ready to give up their friendship as she thinks Love is bigger than friendship, and Samrat later agrees to do so. Sheena later on shows her true face when she tries to blame Gunjan for pushing her in the pool at the pool party. Samrat doesn't believe her and they break up. After their break up, Samrat is framed by Ranvijay for drinking and driving because Ranvijay wanted revenge, and is sent to jail. Ranvijay then breaks Diya's heart and it is revealed that he was only playing with Diya's feelings in order to get revenge for when she humiliated him. Mayank then bails Samrat out of jail by proving Ranvijay guilty in court, who is then sent to jail. In his time spent in jail Samrat realizes that he is in love with Gunjan and wants to win her love but, Gunjan, thinking she told Samrat of her feelings and he didn't feel the same, decides to go home with Nupur for their cousin's wedding. Nupur is meanwhile upset that Mayank doesn't want to make their relationship public and convinces Gunjan they should leave for Morena as soon as possible.

After the sisters leave, the gang feels very lonely and pursues them. Samrat reveals to Diya, Benji and Uday that he deeply loves Gunjan and they help him by leaving Mumbai with one goal, to tell Gunjan about his love, and Mayank, to win his Nupur back as he was furious at Nupur thinking she told Uday, Benji and Diya about their relationship but they actually found out themselves. Mayank enters pretending to be Nupur's childhood friend, who her family wants her to marry while Samrat comes with Benji as Dia and Uday's friends. Gunjan and Nupur's father and aunt develop a negative opinion about Mayank in finding out he is an imposter. Gunjan and Nupur's aunt don't like Samrat for his disruption during a family prayer but their father very much likes him and is impressed by his responsibility and independence. But when promising to commit to Nupur, Mayank comes to know that his mother has lost her job and has to return home without seeing anyone so Nupur assumes he broke up with her. Samrat finally expresses his love to Gunjan on the night of Dusshera, and all return to Mumbai.

In Mumbai, the gang sorts out the differences between Nupur and Mayank with the help of Samrat's plan. After assuring Nupur of his love and commitment, Mayank goes with his mother to Bangalore, where she gets a new job. Nupur's family decide to get her married by sending the match to college. The match turns out to be Adhiraj, Nupur's childhood friend. Adhiraj in search of Nupur is mistaken when he finds another girl named Nupur. The gang takes advantage of this and makes the new Nupur into Nupur Bhushan who Adhiraj starts to fall in love with. All backfires when it is revealed that the new Nupur is Samrat's younger sister Suhani Shergill. Samrat had lived all his life alone as his parents divorced when he was a child and Suhani used to live in London with their mother, because of this Samrat assumed his mom chose his sister over him and grew up hating both of them. Mayank returns to surprise his friends and learns of what the gang has been up to and convinces them to tell Adhiraj the truth about Nupur and tell Samrat about Suhani. With a big basketball game going on that Adhiraj and Samrat are taking part in, the gang decide to tell them the truth after the game. Samrat and Adhiraj clash for control of the basketball team and at the end of the game put their differences aside for the team. At the after party Samrat gets hurt and learns the truth about Suhani which leads to Adhiraj also learning the truth. Nupur is then forced into marrying Adhiraj, who consents to the marriage in anger of Suhani's betrayal. Mayank reveals to Adhiraj that the gang played this prank on him because Nupur loves Mayank and he also convinces Adhiraj that Suhani really is in love with him. Adhiraj decides to call off the wedding, but before he can tell his father he is knocked out by Uday so Mayank reluctantly replaces Adhiraj before the wedding ceremony. Though Mayank is caught by Nupur's father and the wedding was to go on as planned, Adhiraj's father finds out about Nupur and Mayank, so he calls of the wedding. After the humiliation, Nupur's father agrees to Mayank and Nupur's marriage. They get married, but Nupur's father disowns her afterward as he has been betrayed and humiliated. With nowhere to go, the couple turn to the gang for help settling their new life.

He later tells Gunjan he approves of Samrat but Gunjan assures him that there is nothing between her and Samrat, because she doesn't want to be a burden to Samrat as she cannot walk any more.
