Chitra is a teenage girl who is told that she has reached the final stages of her cancer and has little time left. Sarthak is young man working as a baggage handler at the airport alongside his father and elder brother, Freddie, but scared of heights. At work, Sarthak has a crush on the flight attendant, Isha, but has difficulty talking to her. Sarthak struggles to interact with others since he has a constant fear that he is dying. His doctor believes he is a hypochondriac, despite Sarthak denying being one, and advises him to go to a support group for those with cancer to gain a different perspective.


At the meeting, Sarthak encounters Chitra, who immediately shows an interest in him. Although he makes multiple attempts to clarify that he does not have cancer to Chitra, the two quickly become friends and Sarthak willingly offers to help Chitra finish her list of things to do before she dies. Initially annoyed with her blunt and unpredictable behavior, Sarthak eventually confesses that he enjoys being her friend and even misses her when she is not around. Chitra goes to a high school party with Sarthak, where she witnesses one of her friends making out with Ashish, a guy whom she has a crush on. As Sarthak and Chitra begin to spend more time

together, Sarthak slowly overcomes his fear of dying.


Chitra manages to set up a date for Sarthak with Isha, during which she falsely informs Isha that Sarthak also has cancer. Isha then begins to show more interest in Sarthak, and the two begin dating. Chitra reveals to Sarthak that she has always been aware that he does not have cancer, even so, Sarthak hesitates to tell Isha the truth as he is worried that she only likes him because she thinks he has cancer. Chitra learns from Aisha, Sarthak's sister-in-law, that his mother "shut down" after the death of his twin sister who died in a car accident when they were eight-years-old, in which their mother was driving. On a date set up by Isha, Sarthak finally admits to Isha that he doesn't have cancer, but she breaks up with him because she is hurt that he lied to her. Chitra decides to lose her virginity to Ashish.


Sarthak becomes depressed after his breakup with Isha and stops going to work, but his father convinces him to go back to work. Meanwhile Chitra admits to Sarthak that she was disappointed after losing her virginity to Ashish because it happened so quickly. After Chitra passes out in public and is sent to the hospital, during the same time, Aisha goes into labor and thus, Sarthak and Chitra are able to meet his niece in the hospital. Freddie and Aisha announce that they want Sarthak and Chitra to be the baby's godparents, even when Chitra points out that she does not have long to live. Sarthak begins to have a panic attack but Freddie helps him calm down and reminds him that Chitra still needs him to be there for her.


Sarthak makes efforts to help Chitra finish the rest of things-to-do on her lists, even with a little help from Isha and Chitra's parents. Sarthak reveals to Chitra that he stopped having birthdays for the sake of his mother after his twin sister died. After Chitra passes away, Sarthak receives birthday cards in the mail from her to make up for the ones he didn’t celebrate. He finally finds the courage to face his fear of heights and decides to take a trip on a plane. During take-off, Isha and Sarthak continuously make eye-contact with each other, implying that they may be planning to reconcile their relationship.
