But she is an angel at heart, a dreamer and a true friend. She is also very gentle and has a tendency to forgive and forget easily.


Pampered to the hilt

Beautiful and conceited, Tia takes immense care of herself and being a Punjabi, her biggest fear is to put on weight. Tia is an expert on fashion and changes her wardrobe every few weeks. She does share her wardrobe with her trusted friends Pri and Meher called Tia's angels and also with Vrinda. Personal manicurists, masseuses and demands for cream baths and a spa in the school are some of Tia's eccentricities. She has her own signature tune and an adorable signature gesture. She also has a punch line which goes like "Tia Ahuja hona koi aisi waisi baat nahin hain". She has a child-like voice, soft and innocent. Her dialect and vocabulary speaks of a high schooling and she insists on using proper English words while speaking.


Papa ki pari

Sumeet Ahuja, a rich industrialist is a widower who dotes on his only child Tia. He spoils her by giving her a lot of substitutes for not being there for her. In fact he gives her everything except for his time and attention. Tia goes to lengths to attract his attention going as far as doing a bold sexy number in a dance performance at school which forces the principal to summon Sumeet Ahuja.
Tia has never seen her mother and her father does not have a picture. Tia misses her mother very much, especially since her father is so busy and is never with her. All she has of her mother's is an empty photo frame. There is an element of mystery involved in Tia's mother. Her father is strangely tight lipped about her.




Tia with Kailash Kaka

A motherless child Tia yearns for her dad's affection. Tia's father realises his daughter needs him and decides to shift his office to his home so that he can be close to Tia and along with his trusted aide Kailash Kaka look after her.



Tia's angels..Meher & Pri

Tia is the leader of the girls pack in school. She has two friends Priyanka (Pri-a fat under-confident girl) and Meher (a scholarship student) who wants to belong.Tia considers them especially Pri as her angels and her close friends and confidant. Tia values friendship over everything and does not mind sacrificing her love for the sake of friendship. The angels are pretty close and are as thick as thieves.



a memorable first encounter!!

Tia is a dreamer. On the opening day of the school, she finds everything she ever dreamed of in the eyes of a crude but excitingly wild and handsome Ranveer Sisodia. Ranveer is a new entrant in Maurya High. Tia runs into Ranveer on his very first day in school and is instantly attracted towards him totally unaware of the fact that the sole motive behind Ranveers admission into Maurya High is his motive to avenge his fathers death for which he blames Tia's dad. Ranveer has travelled all the way from his hometown Sanganer in Rajasthan to Mumbai and does not mind repeating a year so that he can be in Tia's class and be close to her and can put his plan into action.



Tia's confrontation with Ranveer

However in a weird twist of fate, Ranveer falls in love with Tia at first sight without realizing who she really is. As he comes to know of her identity, Ranveer battles between his first love and his motive. This confrontation inside him makes him mean and hurtful towards Tia. In defense Tia also hides her true feelings and is rude to him leading to a lot of confrontations between the two. Ranveer succeeds in gaining Sumeet's trust and affection and also a job in his office through his maturity and knowledge of the field of work.. He also dates Pri and later Meher, Tia's close friends to get more information on Tia.



Tia at loggerheads with ashi

Apart from Ranveer, another new entrant of Maurya High who troubles Tia to no end is the upstart and bold Anvesha aka Ashi. Tia hates Ashi whom she considers to be wild and uncouth. Tia is sophisticated where Ashi is crass. They are as opposite as chalk and cheese. The only similarity between the two is their need of always wanting to be the centre of attention. Ashi is also the only daughter of a popular film actress Sonia Ray thus her social status is quite similar to that of Tia's. Strangely the two girls also share their birthdays. Ashi forms her own gang against Tia which includes the bold Maria Priya and the meek Vrinda and also Ranveer. However Vrinda likes Tia and befriends her. But Tia and Ashi are constantly at logger-heads with each other.



Guardian angel Sonia Ray

At first glance Tia took Anvesha's star mother Sonia Ray to be as crude as Anvesha. However, later she looks up to Sonia Ray as a mother she always craved for, while Ashi's mom also starts doting on Tia much to the ire of Ashi. Tias dad also dislikes his daughters closeness to Sonia Ray as he hates the bold and independent kind of woman Sonia seems to represent. Inspite of the oppositions, Tia and Sonia share a special bond as Sonia guides and helps Tia in her hour of need and Tia respects her as her own mother.



The silent friendship..Yuvi and Tia

Tia also shares a special relationship with Yuvi a.k.a Yuvraj Dev. Yuvi is the son of a powerful politician. He is as popular as Tia and belonged to the same group as her. Tia and Yuvi were pretty close at one time. In fact it was a popular belief in Maurya that Tia and Yuvi will end up together. However both of them were too self-centered to do so. Tia also used to pen lyrics for Yuvi's music.



Awesum foursum

As the story progresses, fate forces the four main protagonists Tia, Ranveer, Yuvi and Ashi to form their own music band called Remix. These four kids having different needs, attitude and beliefs, who would have little to do each other if given a choice, come together for their common passion for music. Their different and contradicting personalities create an explosive and dynamic combination making the foursome and their music a huge success.



Tia wid Arjun!

Inspite of all her efforts to hate Ranveer back, Tia finds herself dreaming about him more and more in each passing day. To overcome her feelings for Ranveer, Tia tries going out with other guys from school like Sahil, Nakul (Yuvi's roommate) at different times but the significant one was Arjun Khanna. Arjun is the prefect of Maurya High. A man of many faces. he is overtly strict towards the students, spiteful and insulting towards Maria Priya and Ranveer but gentle and caring to Tia. His past is obscure as found out by MP and Ranveer who believe that Arjun might have some underworld connections. Tia and Arjun have a brief relationship much to the jealousy of Ranveer and disapproval of Sumeet Ahuja. It ends after Tia comes to know about Arjun's true self



destined to be together!!!

Inspite of many obstacles and heartaches, Tia and Ranveer finally find a way into each other's heart as it was destined to be.



Love at its best.....

Their pure and innocent love story full of passion, music, laughter and grief forms the crux of the show.
