The story of the series revolves around a group of college students. They belong to different types of family backgrounds. When they become good friends, they come to know about each other's issues and realize that no one's life is as perfect. Some of them belong to very conservative families and some are spoiled due to their rich families. It highlights the issues of mutual understanding between parents and teenagers.
