The lives of 5 self-absorbed Gen Z freshers is about to change as they enter the corridors of Matilda House college. Deep friendships form over a year of mistakes, heartbreaks and self-discovery as they put themselves between their college & the forces that threaten it.
Fresher Devika Kumari leaks a video during a sex-ed night at Matilda House, sparking controversy. Principal Datta advocates open dialogue but faces pressure to rusticate Paro Sarna. First-years Wallika, Devika, Tabassum, Vandana, and Trisha are caught in the chaotic excitement of their first semester as Matilda House faces a crisis it might not survive.
To prevent the no-hostel-curfew policy from being reversed by their new Principal Lata Bakshi, Matilda House seniors, led by Paro and Shubhra, campaign against the referendum. Bakshi pushes for the vote to go her way to save Matilda House from the fallout of the "sex-education" incident. Vandana, Tabassum, Trisha and Wallika bond at Paro’s PG party, while Devika feels out of place and leaves.
Bakshi’s referendum reverses the curfew, sparking opposition from Matilda House’s stalwart faculty and seniors. The freshers’ lives progress: Vandana moves to a PG, Trisha bonds with Tabassum and pursues hockey to impress Parth. Paro, devastated by Matilda House’s loss, starts a hunger strike. As friendships deepen, tensions rise.
As their friendships deepen and they discover each other’s passions, Trisha, Vandana, Wally, Tabby, and Devika unknowingly take steps toward becoming Ziddi Girls. When wealthy socialite Anita Raghani challenges public education, Lata Bakshi surprisingly defends it, clashing with Raghani and Sihag. Meanwhile, Paro and friends secretly plan a performance at Masterpiece to defy Bakshi’s censorship.
The hunger strike ends, impacting our freshers. Life picks up: Tabassum lands a brand deal, Trisha focuses on hockey, Vandana faces challenges at Experimanch, Wallika joins Paro’s resistance, and Devika struggles financially. Bakshi offers Devika a scholarship, while urging her to spy on Paro, creating a loyalty conflict. As tensions rise, Devika infiltrates the resistance and must choose a side.
Tensions arise at Masterpiece as Paro’s resistance group recruits Devika and Wally, while Devika struggles with spying for Bakshi to keep her scholarship. Vandana is tricked into a shocking stage moment, leading to her suspension. Amidst friendship drama and sporting triumphs, Paro’s secret protest against Bakshi collapses. Vandana disappears, leaving our freshers wondering how to help her.
A faltered plan isn’t a failed plan. Paro and the seniors execute their resistance plan at Masterpiece and expose Raghani and Sihag’s agendas. Chaos erupts as PICA members invade Matilda House and attack Paro. Wallika rallies students for justice, while Devika feels betrayed after losing her scholarship. Bakshi must decide if she can save Matilda House from collapse.
The finale presents Matilda House with its biggest challenge yet -privatisation. Many colleges rally in support of Matilda House, while Bakshi and team work to convince the board. Meanwhile, our facchas fight to protect Wally from Mayank Asthana and his men, strengthening their bond and Bakshi goes from fighting against Matilda House to fighting for it. But will it be enough?
