Ignored by girls and harassed by seniors after being admitted to a prestigious college in Mumbai, a bright young student strives to prove himself to the skeptics who consider him less than exceptional. Nihaal hails from Chandigarh. He's got the gift of gab, and he's a whiz with electronics. Unfortunately no one at college, including popular beauty Meesha, seems to recognize Nihaal's good traits. Meesha is spoiled, but Nihaal can't help falling in love with her. When Nihaal finally starts to win some friends, Meesha starts to resent him. Then something incredible happens: Nihaal dreams that Meesha is in trouble, and he races to her rescue. When his dream becomes a reality, Nihaal realizes that he has the power to see the future. But there are those who would manipulate Nihaal's power to destroy his dreams. If Nihaal can just weather the storm and master his power, perhaps he'll have a shot at winning over Meesha after all.
