Riya, a laudable, brilliant student, is meant for great achievements; perhaps thats why people cant fathom why she fell for a chronic defaulter like Kabir Sharma. Kabir, a star basketball player, hardly bothered with studies or reprimands and concerned only with becoming the captain of the school basketball team, had never imagined that his heart would lose its residence for someone as modest and docile as Riya. Forsaking her career, family, and reputation just to help him tide past his limitations, Riya is compelled to push Kabir away for his betterment. The anguish ends her in depression, from which Vikram liberates her. Vikram is someone who her parents think is the perfect life partner for Riya. He is also that second someone who falls in love with her. They meet again, Riya, Vikramand Kabir.
