- 1Plot summary
Plot summary[edit]
The core of the show lies in highlighting the importance of friendship along with other relationships, be it romance, or family relations.
The show is split into three seasons, the first one focusing on how love becomes important over friendship in Manik's life through Nandini changing his life. The second season is more of an epilogue of the first, on how each person lives start to change and evolve.
Nandini decides to move to Mumbai for the treatment of her younger brother, Rishabh and for her to study in a reputed science college. She believes her fireflies only light up when there is true love. She accidentally collides with Manik Malhotra, and unknown to Manik, he saves her jar filled with fireflies and they light up when they both touch the jar at the same time. It is then believed that there is true love between Manik and Nandini though they are both unaware of this and thus begins their story.
Season 1[edit]
Nandini Murthy (Niti Taylor) and her friend Navya Naveli (Veebha Anand) team up to save Shahid (Pulkit Bangia), who was bullied by FAB5, at S.P.A.C.E Academy from committing suicide. In order to protect the college's reputation, Nyonika Malhotra (Manik's mother and the Head of S.P.A.C.EKishwer Merchant) offers Nandini and Navya a full scholarship. This leads to Nandini and Navya becoming the targets of the academy's most famous band 'FAB5', a group of rich spoiled kids – Manik Malhotra, the leader (Parth Samthaan), Cabir (Ayaz Ahmed), Mukti (Charlie Chauhan), Dhruv (Utkarsh Gupta) and Alya (Krissann Barretto).
Nandini becomes the main target for Manik after she punches him in front of the entire college for his misbehaviour. Due to unfortunate circumstances, Nandini ends up being Manik's slave/spot where he continues on troubling her until his girlfriend Alya intervenes and asks him to leave Nandini alone as she feels he is becoming too involved with her. Alya's insecurity about Manik and Nandini causes her to hire goons to teach Nandini a lesson however Dhruv and Manik manage to save her. When Manik discovers that the goons were hired by Alya, he breaks up with her due to her mistrust.
Manik and Nandini's petty fights and constant bickering's bring them closer and they become attracted to each other. Manik realises that no one affects him the way Nandini does, which is why he is always drawn to her. Initially he fights the attraction but eventually gives in. Nandini begins to understand Manik a little more after he begins to open up to her and she realises that he is not the 'Monster Manik' she deemed him to be and becomes aware of her growing attraction towards him, previously misunderstanding the racing of her heart around Manik to be hatred for him.
The night before the college talent show, Musicana, Manik confesses to Nandini how he feels and they kiss. On the same night, Manik finds out that his best friend Dhruv also has feelings for Nandini, mistaking their friendship for something more. Manik decides to sacrifice his love for his best friend. As Dhruv had saved his life when they were younger, he always felt Dhruv was better than him thus a better suitor for Nandini. On the night of Musicana, Manik, with a heavy heart, lies to Nandini by humiliating her and telling her it was all just a game for him and he has wanted to take his revenge on her ever since she punched him. Manik effectively ends his relationship with Nandini.
Meanwhile, Nandini's best friend, Navya, falls for Harshad, who is Alya's brother and spends most of his time plotting against FAB5. After FAB5 win Musicana, Harshad plays a video in front of the entire school which shows an intimate moment between Cabir and his teacher Raghav which leads to everyone finding out about the pairs homosexuality. As Nandini realises that Harshad is not the person who she and Navya thought him to be, she teams up with FAB5 and cocks up a plan to make Navya realise Harshad's true colors. Dhruv tells Nandini he is in love with her however she rejects his proposal and tells him that she only sees him as a friend which angers Manik.
In midst of FAB5's plan to expose Harshad, Nandini begins to doubt Manik's reasons for breaking up with her as his behaviour starts contradicting his words. She confronts him and in a moment of weakness, he admits that he would have never have broken up with if it was not for Dhruv. This angers Nandini and she accuses Manik of being selfish for not considering her feelings and tells him that she wants nothing more to do with him whilst he apologises and begs for her forgiveness after realising what he did to her was wrong.
Nandini along with FAB5 succeed in their plan to oust Harshad and they trap him into confessing his wrongdoings on camera and is later arrested for attacking Cabir and Raghav on the night of Musicana. At a celebration for ousting Harshad, FAB5 and Nandini play a game which allows Manik to confirm that Dhruv has moved on from Nandini. The love triangle soon comes to an end as Alya and Dhruv start to get closer when Nandini tells Dhruv that she only sees him as a friend and always will. While Nandini is unwilling to forgive Manik because she feels he will always choose his friends over her, Manik goes to extreme lengths to prove himself to her.
When Soha Khurana (Jasmine Avasia) enters as the obsessed fan of Manik, Nandini becomes close to Manik again, as she couldn't stand the thought of anyone else being with him. They decide to be friends and get to know one another. Soon they become more than friends and on their first date, the fireflies light up, indicating to Nandini that Manik is indeed her true love. Due to a misunderstanding led by Soha's father, Nandini believes that Manik will be better off without her and will be able to focus on his dreams of becoming a singer. Soha's obsession with Manik reaches a dangerous level and she attempts to kill Nandini in a fire but she is saved by Manik. However, when Nandini finds out that Soha has died in the fire (a ploy set up by Nyonika and Soha's father), and that too perhaps because of Manik, she remains silent in court when she is asked if Manik had anything to do with Soha's death. A shocked Manik stops talking to her. Although it is proved that Manik is innocent, and despite Nandini's efforts to get back with him, he makes her suffer, as he felt Nandini didn't trust him enough and felt she betrayed him. However, realising that he can't let her go, he sets a hope vs hate challenge between them, and if Nandini manages to sing with him on the night of the Fusion Concert, there is a chance of them getting back together again.
Meanwhile, Mukti falls for Abhimanyu (Zain Imam), who is a cancer patient, as he teaches her to smile at all times and be happy. After his departure, she suffers greatly but her friends support her. On the other hand, Dhruv and Alya's relationship crumbles as a result of Dhruv's inferiority complex. This leads to Dhruv leaving FAB5. Manik clashes with Nandini's teacher, Pandit Trilok Chaurasya (Dishank Arora), for the Fusion Concert. Manik believes that the Pandit has the wrong intentions for Nandini while she brushes them off thinking Manik is jealous and overreacting.
On the day of the Fusion concert, Manik and Nandini sing together and all misunderstandings between Dhruv and FAB5 are cleared and Dhruv attempts to mend his broken friendship with the group. After the concert, Manik tells Nandini he loves her. Their happiness is short lived when the Pandit kidnaps Nandini. Although she is saved, she suffers from great shock and pushes everyone, including Manik, away from her. Nandini decides to take a break and goes to Mangalore with her brother but Manik goes after her. With the help of Nandini's grandmother, Ams, Manik succeeds in bringing Nandini out of her shock a day before her 18th birthday. On her birthday, Nandini tells Manik that she loves him and they become an official couple.
Meanwhile, Aryaman (Karan Jotwani) enters the scene (brother of Soha and friend of Harshad). His initial motive is to seek revenge for his sister's death believing it is all Manik's fault. While others only suspect him, Nandini finds out the truth and asks for a chance to prove Manik's innocence. On the other hand, Alya, begins to suffer from an eating disorder and depression as a result of her failed relationships and loneliness. On Friendship's Day, she announces that she wants to leave FAB5 and begin a fresh life which angers Dhruv who blames Manik claiming that he is their over shadower. While Alya and Dhruv claim that Manik has always been absent from their lives, Mukti and Cabir take the initiative of getting FAB5 back together.
During the Talent Hunt competition at S.P.A.C.E, FAB5 sing together and manage to mend their broken friendship. On the other hand, Aryaman's misunderstanding is cleared and he apologises to FAB5, Navya and Nandini. After FAB5 win the Talent Hunt, Manik and Nandini consummate their relationship. Aryaman decides to throw a dinner party and invites FAB5, Nandini and Navya. While Nandini waits at home for Manik and Cabir to pick her up and the rest of FAB5 wait for them to arrive at the party, Manik and Cabir face a car accident (plotted by Nyonika, Manik's mother, which was intended for Nandini).
