Abhira, as usual, looks unimpressed — though her eyes tell a different story. Soon, a light-hearted rivalry begins, setting up a hilarious boys versus girls showdown.
Armaan Turns Superhero, Abhira Steals the Spotlight
At college, Armaan becomes the ultimate entertainer. Dressed like a superhero, he hands out roses to every girl, leaving the crowd in splits. But when it’s Abhira’s turn, he takes it up a notch — lifting her into his arms instead of simply offering a rose. The crowd erupts in laughter as Abhira freezes in shock, while their undeniable chemistry sets hearts racing.
The courtyard turns into a war zone of fun — boys teasing, girls fighting back, and the whole college buzzing with youthful mischief. Abhira pretends to be annoyed, yet deep down, she enjoys Armaan’s playful attention. Soon, the girls pick up sticks and chase the boys, creating a laugh-out-loud moment that defines college chaos.
The Sports Challenge: Badminton or Battle of Hearts?
The next day, Armaan’s gang turns the hostel into a cricket ground, disturbing everyone with their noisy enthusiasm. Abhira storms in to scold them, triggering another round of boys versus girls banter. The argument ends with a bold challenge — a sports match to decide who rules the hostel. When Abhira’s friend suggests badminton instead of cricket, she agrees instantly, much to Armaan’s concern.
But there’s one tiny problem — Abhira doesn’t even know how to play badminton! That’s when Armaan steps in, offering to train her. With his trademark flirtatious grin, he tells her, “Don’t worry, your coach is here.” What follows is a fun and romantic training session where every rally brings them closer. Their connection deepens with every glance and playful exchange.
The episode wraps up on a sweet note, with Armaan and Abhira’s growing bond hinting at something more than just friendship. Fans can expect even more laughter, emotion, and chemistry in the episodes ahead as the boys and girls face off in the much-awaited badminton challenge.
