The Buddy Project is an Indian teen comedy drama series which aired on Channel V India from 23 July 2012 to 24 April 2014.
[1][2] The tale of eight mischievous students KD, Kiya, Ranveer, Panchi, Piddi, Samar, Juhi and Bobby.
Their mischief crosses limits, and in an attempt to regain the lost pride of Royal Academy and help direct the enrolled students toward personal and academic development, the school principal brings in an old alumnus – Aniruddh Jaitley, who was once known as “Junglee” for his mischievous behaviour.
The second season of the show focuses on how Ranveer, Panchi, KD, Kiya and Piddi adjust to the Imperial College of Communication after leaving their comfort zone at Royal Academy.
The main new entries are Avijeet "Avi" Roy, Superstar Chandan Roy's son, the cool dude of Imperial and the leader of the Dhakkan gang, and Omi Dahiya is the desi guy and also the one who leads the Chillar gang.
The other new entries are Avi's mischievous sister Avantika Roy who has a crush on Aniruddh, and Ranveer's radio station partner, Rukmini Sharma, who struggles in college as she doesn't know English.
KD's father falls ill, and the buddies (excluding RV) decide to put a dandiya fest in the college.
On the rose day, Avi's plot is exposed in front of Panchi, and she breaks up with him.
He takes the buddies so that Kisha (KD and Kiya)'s misunderstanding gets cleared and RV and Panchi realise their love for each other.
RV and Panchi get lost in the jungle and spend the night at the house of an astrologer.
The next day, RV falls into quicksand while heading to the campsite, but Panchi saves him by pulling him out with a tree twig.
Unable to express his gratefulness, RV ends up kissing Panchi, witnessed by piddi and Ruku.
The next day at college, Kiya says that she is going abroad for higher education, upsetting KD.
Ruku leaves the college, and KD proves to Kiya that the academy was fake.
The next day, a few students tell RV to resign from the president post, so he does just for Harsh.
The plan is a success, but the kidnappers catch them and threaten to kill the buddies, but KD and Sheeba's cleverness escape.
Panchi decides to organise a fest called 'Impluse', and to do so; she had to unite the chillers and dhakkans.
The rest of the show revolves on how RV, KD and Piddi start their career.
RV is annoyed with KD as he isn't taking their business seriously and is only concentrating on Vaani's café.
Producer Sudhir Sharma wanted the production team to relate to the ideas and thoughts of today's youth and wanted to work with people who could think the way today's youth does (the entire team is under thirty years of age).
