Plot

The story revolves around a sensitive young man, Karan Sharma, who frequently skips college. Despite his poor academic performance, he displays many other talents. He is an excellent musician and plays in a band. His father constantly expresses disappointment in him, which often leads to Karan having outbursts of frustration and anger. One day, on a deserted street, he catches sight of Pooja Saxena for the first time and falls in love with her. Following this brief encounter, he searches everywhere for her but fails to find her. He gradually begins to lose hope in his quest, stops playing music, and decides to move to another city with his uncle. While on his way there, his car breaks down, and he is forced to hitch a ride. To his amazement, he finds Pooja in the driver's seat. As they introduce themselves, a truck collides with the car, sending it into a ravine. Karan and Pooja find themselves hanging from a cliff, and although Karan manages to pull Pooja back up the steep cliff, he loses his grip and falls into the ravine.

When Pooja regains consciousness, she blames herself for Karan's death and offers to help search for his body. Meanwhile, Karan has survived the fall but is seriously injured and unconscious. He is found by a man who takes him to hospital, and soon afterwards Karan is reunited with his family. As he recovers, he reflects on how he should have confessed his love to Pooja during the brief time they spent together. He also begins to focus on his education rather than his music. In time, Pooja arrives at his doorstep to apologise and offers him her friendship. They become close friends, and Pooja later tells Karan that she must leave for the United States to pursue further studies. Devastated, he finally confesses his love for her. Pooja feels the same way and cannot deny her feelings for Karan, promising that she will return to him once she completes her education. Karan agrees to wait patiently for her.
