When Deb, an author and publisher, survives the bomb blasts at Chandni Chowk, he knows his life is nothing short of a miracle. But even as he recovers, his feet take him to where the blasts took place. From the burnt remains, he discovers a diary. It seems to belong to a dead man who was deeply in love with a girl. As he reads the heartbreaking narrative, he knows this story must never be left incomplete. Thus begins Deb’s journey with his girlfriend, Avantika, and his best friend, Shrey, to hand over the diary to the man’s beloved.

Avantika is an investment banker, an ambitious go-getter and the exact opposite of Deb - a corporate professional turned failed writer, turned scripter of saas-bahu serials. They've been together for 10 years, surviving everything from college to rave parties to annoying best friends, including Shrey, who has no respect for personal boundaries, and Vernita and Tanmay - the annoying yet enviable "it" couple who seem to have it all. Now Avantika wants to take the next step. But will Deb be able to catch up? Or will it rip them apart?

Deb is absolutely crazily in love with the stunning Avantika. He can’t believe she is his. Their relationship is going great except for the one time when Deb faltered by breaching her trust. After he apologized, Avantika grudgingly accepted him back. However, his insecurity about her seems to be pushing him into infidelity again. The trust he had worked so hard to build is lost once again. Will Avantika take him back this time, or will she move on? 

Waking up from a long coma, Daman learns that he was in a massive car crash with a girl who vanished soon after the accident, leaving him for dead. Strangely, all he remembers is a hazy face, her hypnotic eyes, and her name - Shreyasi. To come to terms with his memory lapse, he starts piecing together stories about himself and Shreyasi from his dreams, which he then turns into a hugely popular blog. When he’s offered a lucrative publishing deal to convert his blog pieces into a novel, he signs up immediately.

That the time they are spending together lasts and lasts.... In the world of imperfection, there is always someone just right for you. 

Raghu likes to show that there is nothing remarkable about his life - loving, middle-class parents, an elder brother he looks up to and plans to study in an IIT. And that’s how he wants things to seem - normal. Deep down, however, the guilt of letting his closest friend drown in the school’s swimming pool gnaws at him. And even as he punishes himself by hiding from the world and shying away from love and friendship, he feels drawn to the fascinating Brahmi - a girl quite like him, yet so different. No matter how hard Raghu tries, he begins to care....

All Debashish cares about is getting laid. His relationships are mostly short-lived and his break-ups messy until he falls in love with the beautiful and mysterious Avantika. When she returns his feelings, he is thrilled. However, his joy is short-lived as Avantika walks out of the relationship. A brokenhearted Debashish plunges into depression and his life takes a dizzying downward spiral. He finds himself without a job, friends, or a lover. Loneliness strikes him hard. That is when his friend Amit comes to his rescue and they start putting the pieces of his life back together.

And the more he ignores her, the more she's drawn to him till she bulldozes her way into an unlikely friendship. What attracts at first, begins to grate. She can't help but want to know what he's left behind, what he's hiding, and who broke his heart. She wants to love him back to life.
