What happens when Naina Agarwal, the 'different' girl from 90s finds out that her alliance is being fixed with a stranger while her career hasn't even started.

Her childhood had been nothing less than a chaos, with him always around to bully her. Much to her helplessness, she was that little, naive child with two pigtails hanging on either side of her head, and round, nerdy glasses always threatening to slip of her scant, young nose. But far away from him, as she grew up into a sweet, attractive woman of twenty-four, she had her own dreams to care for, leaving everything else of a little importance in her life, while it was not the same for him. Even he had his own castles high in the air, and though not very apparent, he also had craved a friend who would stick around him, no matter what. As they meet again, they travel the path from being enemies, then friends, then best-friends, then maybe, something way more than just that. While they seem inseparable, fate has its own challenges.
