Plot
Muskaan is an orphan girl living on a farm run by her overly-protective elder brother, Vishal and their 'Chachu'. Muskaan's childhood friend, Ujaala, has been carrying a torch for the brooding Vishal since childhood, but he won't give her the time of day. Later on, Muskaan decides she wants to go to a university in Mumbai and has to persuade her brother to allow that. Once in the big city, Suraj, an underachieving student, who does not get along with his stepmother and is estranged from his father, falls in love with Muskaan. After a few attempts at messing with Muskaan and trying to get her attention, Suraj finally succeeds and Muskaan falls in love with him. One day, when Vishal comes to visit Muskaan, he is mistakenly considered her boyfriend by Suraj and his group of friends. They consequently try to fight Vishal but are instead beaten up. Suraj later learns from Muskaan that Vishal is her brother and he apologizes to Muskaan and Vishal for beating him up. But Vishal does not like Suraj because his terms and conditions of his future brother-in-law are very strenuous physically and he thinks Suraj is neither competent nor a man to be taken seriously.
