Seasons & Episode
As our gang steps into class 11th, not everyone is happy with their board exam results. Jaz has fallen to Aadhya in terms of a rank in school while Prateek has flunked one of the easiest subjects ever. While the other two in the Todu Teen sense something’s up with Aadhya, she doesn’t speak up. Whatever transpired between her and Samvidhaan in Dehradun is unknown to the others.
Samvidhaan’s return to LCC is nowhere close to a hero’s welcome and he realizes that he’ll have to win everyone over to cement his place as the likeable sidekick at LCC. Meanwhile, there are misunderstandings between Todu Teen over multiple rumours, one of Prateek flunking EVS, and the other of Aadhya leaving Samarth because of Samvidhaan.
It’s friendship day, ironically for our gang which has just broken up. Samvidhaan knows that before wooing back Aadhya, he has to win his best friend back which doesn’t seem to be an easy task. Meanwhile, as a new fad, there is a set of different colour friendship bands that seem to be floating around the school. The catch being every colour has a different meaning.
In the quest of winning Aadhya back, Sam and Prateek have a hilarious idea to get the Todu Teen together. However, the idea backfires but it does help Sam in unknowing ways. Meanwhile, Rajat gets a reality check from his friends on the ‘jealousy’ thing with Jaz.
With the Todu teen back in the previous episode, it’s time for the two of them to help Sam find his way back to Aadhya. Meanwhile, Sahil finds it hard to concentrate on his upcoming pre-board exams.
After the Kachehari, Sam and Aadhya are together again, but the atmosphere of farewell and goodbyes makes them uncertain about the future and they’ll have to take a solid step to cement their relationship.
