Overview
Vaibhavi Singh is a spirited teenager who returns to her hometown Jabalpur to pursue her mission. Her life has two goals - one is to become an IAS officer and secondly to clear her father's name Anirudh Singh Chauhan who was labelled a traitor. Her father, an IAS officer was an honest man serving in the Indian Ammunition Factory of Jabalpur. He gets arrested and fails to prove his innocence. Unable to take the insult and pressure, he commits suicide in jail. His wife and a much younger Vaibhavi are subjected to torture and shame by Jabalpur people. The mother and daughter are forced to leave the city. It is revealed that Anirudh was framed by his own best friends who were corrupted and were involved in illegal activities.

Vaibhavi, now 18 years old comes back to Jabalpur to prove her father's innocence by becoming an IAS officer. Having witnessed atrocities by people at an early age, Vaibhavi has developed anger, hate and disgust for the society and turns out to be an angry young woman. Vaibhavi decides to take admission into the same college Harivansh Rai College where her father graduated. She finds an empty frame in the wall of fame board which once belonged to her father. Vaibhavi vows to avenge people that wronged her father and clear his name by any means necessary. On the first day of her college, Vaibhavi locks horns with Natahsa a daughter of a well known surgeon in Jabalpur and Ada Siddiqui the daughter of the well known industrialist. Natasha is bold, spirited and an open minded girl and Ada displays an attitude of an arrogant girl but she is soft from inside. Both of their fathers are best friends and happens to be trusties of college. Vaibhavi, Natasha and Ada collide on various occasions which makes them bitter towards each other.

Enter three young men into the story. Shaurya Scindia who is the president/head boy of the college who fights for the rights of students and also a bright student. He is known to be the perfect guy and the whole college is fond of him. He helps out every student and Vaibhavi becomes his center of attraction. He befriends her to solve her problems at various occasions and ultimately falls for her. He displays his feelings and affection for her at many levels but Vaibhavi is never sure whether she likes him or not. She remains confused about her feelings towards Shaurya but acknowledges him as his good friend. Kabir Scindia the younger brother of Shaurya is the complete opposite of him. He is a spoilt brat who doesn't believe in love and relationships. He is a Casanova who hooks up with various women until Natasha comes in his life and changes the picture. She brings a change in his life. Also she learns that Kabir has a past that brought a bitter change in his personality but Natasha changes him for good. Kabir is also friends with Ada, Vaibhavi and Samar and shares a bitter sweet bond with his brother Shaurya.

Meanwhile, Samar Khan is the friend of Junaid who is the fiancée of Ada and is about to marry her soon. As luck would have it, Samar studies in the same college where Ada does. Junaid lives in Karachi, Pakistan and he has asked Samar to keep an eye on Ada and ultimately takes care of her. Samar and Ada starts to develop feelings for her as Samar is genuinely good-hearted while Junaid is often rude and crude towards Ada. All three love stories blossom but they do not reach a conclusion. Natasha, Ada and Vaibhavi all become friends however, Vaibhavi is unaware of the fact that the men who wronged her father are no one else but fathers of Natasha and Ada.

Shaurya discovers the truth about Vaibhavi and tries to help her but she rejects his help. He proposes to her which she again rejects. Hurt by this, Shaurya eventually accepts an offer of Internship from Nasik and leaves the city heartbroken. Vaibhavi feels for Shaurya but decides to concentrate on her mission. To make things worse, Veer Pratap Singh a son of a well named Minister enters her life and the two lock horns with each other. Ada ultimately tells her family she does not want to marry Junaid. She also leaves the city and goes abroad and joins a home science course.
