MTV Kaisi Yeh Yaariaan was an Indian youth television series that aired on MTV India from 21 July 2014 to 31 December 2015. It is loosely based on the Korean drama, Boys Over Flowers and the former's adapted material, the Japanese shōjo manga, Hana Yori Dango. The show gained immense popularity, in particular Manik and Nandini's love story, collectively known as MaNan on social networking sites, and has been considered a rage among the young audience. The show went on to be a hit amongst the audience and huge success making it the No.1 Youth Show in India during its run.
The core of the show lies in highlighting the importance of friendship along with other relationships, be it romance, friendship, or familial relations.
The show is split into two seasons, the first one focusing on how love becomes important over friendship in Manik's life through Nandini changing his life. The second season is more of an epilogue of the first, on how each person lives start to change and evolve.
Nandini decides to move to Mumbai for the treatment of her younger brother, Rishabh and for her to study in a reputed science college. She believes her fireflies only light up when there is true love. She accidentally collides with Manik Malhotra, and unknown to Manik, he saves her jar filled with fireflies and they light up when they both touch the jar at the same time. It is then believed that there is true love between Manik and Nandini though they are both unaware of this and thus begins their story.
Season 1
Nandini Murthy ( Niti Taylor) and her friend Navya Naveli (Veebha Anand) team up to save Shahid (Pulkit Bangia), who was bullied by FAB5, at S.P.A.C.E Academy from committing suicide. In order to protect the college's reputation, Nyonika Malhotra (Manik's mother and the Head of S.P.A.C.E) offers Nandini and Navya a full scholarship. This leads to Nandini and Navya becoming the targets of the academy's most famous band "FAB5", a group of rich spoiled kids - Manik Malhotra, the leader (Parth Samthaan), Cabir (Ayaz Ahmed), Mukti (Charlie Chauhan), Dhruv (Utkarsh Gupta) and Alya (Krissann Barretto).
