Plot summary
Dean Yogendra Vashisht has fallen ill and asks to see the students of his last batch at St. Teresa's College. A few of them come to his bedside with regrets about their final year. Ten years earlier, Rohan Nanda is the trustee's son, the richest and most popular boy on campus, and his father wants him in the family business rather than in music. Rohan's girlfriend, Shanaya Singhania, the campus's most popular girl, is upset by his flirting with Tanya Israni. Abhimanyu Singh, an orphan from a middle-class home who lives with his grandmother, arrives as the new heartthrob and idolizes Rohan's father. He and Rohan quarrel at first, and the annual Student of the Year contest begins.
