Miley Jab Hum Tum (When We Met) is a youth oriented television series that aired on Indian television channel STAR One, premiering 22 September 2008. The series ran for a little more than two years successfully covering two seasons before ending on 19 November 2010. This is considered to be one of the most popular and longest running shows of STAR One, and led to the entry of the currently top-ranked actors like Sanaya Irani, Mohit Sehgal, Arjun Bijlani and Rati Pandey, into the big league. The show is about falling in love during college and developing relations for a lifetime.
The story begins at Excel college with the introduction of the basketball champion and college stud, Samrat Shergill(Mohit Sehgal) and the college diva Dia(Navina Bole) and their buddies Benji and Uday. The other side includes sisters Nupur Bhushan(Rati Pandey) and Gunjan Bhushan(Sanaya Irani Sehgal) leaving rural Morena for Mumbai to join Excel College. They are cousins of the "Queen Bee" Dia Bhushan, and "Dodo" Uday Bhushan. Dia, who is horrified by the news of their arrival to Excel does everything in her power to make their lives miserable, but all in vain. These pranks introduce Samrat, lead athlete and college star, and his close friend Benji(Abhishek Sharma) as friends of Dia while Mayank Sharma(Arjun Bijlani) is introduced to be the geeky Greek god of Excel, a close rival of Samrat.
During this period, we learn about the personality of each lead character and some history. Nupur begins college by repeatedly receiving Mayank as a mandatory project and traveling partner, while Gunjan gets pushed into a talent parade by Samrat and returns the support by tutoring him. Through tiffs, a dance number, and a series of misadventures; Mayank falls in love with Nupur and Gunjan becomes friends with Samrat. Samrat having helped Gunjan blossom during the RJ hunt; mutually call each other a dear friend after restoring honesty on the Valentine's Night. Time passes and Gunjan misinterprets subtleties from Samrat and begins to knowingly harbour unstated love for Samrat just as he clarifies Gunjan to be his closest or the special friend, unaware of his own feelings for her while being oblivious to her one-sided love. Mayank, disregarding his love, feuds with Nupur, though later they too become fast friends, unleashing a new wave of feelings in Nupur for Mayank as he realises his love for her.
