Pia Jaisingh is a privileged South Delhi teenager who struggles in a dysfunctional family. Her misogynistic father, Rajat Jaisingh, always wanted a boy instead of Pia and is now having an affair with a younger-girl named Anahita. Her mother is the long-suffering socialite, Neelu. Pia studies at the Falcon high school, where all the rich kids study. On bonfire night, Pia has a clash with her best friend Sahira. Sahira thinks that Pia is having affair with Ayan Nanda, after seeing his flirty messages in Pia's phone. To make Sahira believe that she is not having an affair with him, she tells her friends that she already has a boyfriend. One day, Pia finds Arjun Mehta, a middle-class, career-focused student from Greater Noida. She convinces Arjun to be her fake boyfriend by paying him ₹25,000 (US$260) per week. They start meeting each other and Pia starts sharing pictures of them on social media. Her best friends are now convinced that she is not having any affair with Ayan and they reconcile. Later at a dinner night with family, Rajat learns that Arjun is going to take part in an international debate competition, and he encourages Pia to also be a part of it. Arjun who was initially reluctant about Pia participating in the debate competition, also agrees. After that, they both start falling in love. On Diwali night, Pia gets to know about her father's affair and learns that Anahita is pregnant. Pia is devastated; she and her mother go to her maternal house. She also breaks her phone that night. Unfortunately, the debate competition is the day after and Pia forgets about that. Arjun has meanwhile been calling Pia and sending her messages. He goes with the rest of the team and thinks that Pia used him just for timepass and did not even want to join the debate club. Later, Pia and Neelu go to Rudra's palace (a family friend) to spend some time. During that time, a photo of Rudra and Pia is posted on social media saying that they are having an affair. Pia later gets a new phone from Rudra. She remembers about the debate competition and is shocked to see her photo with Rudra on social media. Moreover, Arjun is very angry after seeing the photo and has blocked her. When Pia tries to convince Arjun about what happened, he insults her in front of the whole school, telling everyone about their deal. Since Arjun wrote an aggressive application letter to get a scholarship at London universities, his writing is rejected and he is told to rewrite them by his teacher, Mrs Braganza. Later Arjun's father tells him how one needs to work on a relationship. Arjun slowly starts to cool down. Later on that night, Mrs Braganza comes to his house and tells him that he has got the scholarship after resubmitting the application. But Arjun is not the one who submitted it, it was Pia. Arjun also comes to know that her parents are going to get divorced. Arjun realises his mistake and tries to call Pia, but she does not answer. Later on bonfire night, he apologises to Pia and proposes to her, to which she agrees. Arjun eventually goes to London and Pia stays in India to study at a national law college, where Arjun earlier wanted to study.
