Plot 
  
The plot revolves around a young, loving and charming man Luv Modi.  The story starts from Luv narrating his love stories and how he encountered love in different forms. Luv was the most loved and pampered child, his grandmother, his mother and his aunt were very fond of him. But Luv's father used to be jealous at times due to this. As a result, Luv was sent away at boarding school. He returned after 14 years completing his school as well as Hotel Management course. He had a best friend Saumitra. From here, Luv's first love story starts. He catches sight of his neighbour, Mishti  and instantly falls for her. 
Later, Luv and Mishti meet again at his house when she doesn't recognize him and mistakes him as servant but Luv catches Mishti's attention by his witty sense and cooking skills, they become quick friends. As time passes, Mishti learns that Luv is a good man and his point of view on women is quite different from others. Luv starts developing feelings for Mishti as he thinks she also likes him, he mockingly tells her that he will help her elope with the guy she loves when Mishti tells him that she loves a guy like Luv, which increases his hopes. However on the engagement ceremony of Luv's sister, Sweetu, he discovers that Mishti loves a boy called Prem (the guy she told about Luv to, he's the one like Luv). She requests Luv to flee her for Prem as her family won't allow her to marry him. A heavy-hearted, Luv decides to help Mishti to run off with her lover. He also manages to convince Mishti's family to accept Mishti and Prem. This is how Luv's first love remains one-sided.

Later, Luv moves to Mumbai. There he dates multiple girls but none is his type. Later, he meets another girl, again his neighbour, Sonam and they become friends. Sonam and Luv spend most of time together. when they're invited into a wedding of Sonam's best friend's sister as wedding photographer, on the way to there, Luv starts liking Sonam (because again such events happen in which Sonam gets possessive for Luv etc.) but when Luv confesses his feelings, Sonam angrily rejects him and decides to break the friendship, to which, Luv confronts Sonam and leaves Mumbai. Again this love story remains one-sided.

It is then showed that Luv was narrating all this to a marriage prospect, Preeti  who finds his stories very interesting but Luv 's perspective was quite changed. He now believes that he should marry and settle as love can happen even after marriage. Preeti tells she would marry Luv but she says no when asked by her parents on being married. She calls Luv taking the name of Sonam in a café to meet him and tells him she was testing if he still loves Sonam and wants to marry someone else. Then she reveals she declined the marriage, but is interested in dating him to which Luv responds he is now no more interested in such things as he's tired. But Preeti tells him she would wait for him. Luv's mother suggests him to give himself one more chance and Luv gets over his previous love story and gives a shot on Preeti. But now Preeti tells him she isn't interested and confuses him.  Sumitra gives advice to Luv to impress Preeti by various means. Lastly, Luv directly asks what really Preeti wants, she tells him she wants the old Luv, the original Luv. Luv understands what she means and starts to be with her being the Luv he was, cheerful and loving. Luv fells in love with Preeti but is afraid to tell her. Preeti tells Luv that wants to take a test of him, she tells him to stay away from her to know if he really loves her, misses her or its just attachment and after that she'll giver her answer.
