Anni buys a bottle of champagne for Raghav and promises to celebrate together if he scores well. The gesture is meant to reassure him, but it also heightens Raghav's fear of letting his father down. The moment reveals the pressure and fragile hope they cling to.

Raghav learns he did not qualify for IIT-JEE while at a friend's apartment. Overwhelmed by fear of being labeled a loser, he considers suicide and steps onto a balcony. He survives, but his condition is critical and alarming for both him and his family.

Anni rushes to the hospital where Maya confronts him about missing signs of Raghav's stress. Dr. Kasbekar explains that Raghav's brain is swelling and his will to live is fading. The crisis forces everyone to confront the risk of losing him.

While visiting, Anni discovers photos from his college days and decides to tell Raghav about his own 'loser' past. He hopes reliving those memories will rekindle hope and show his son that failure can be temporary. The plan marks a shift from blame to shared resilience.

On his first day in 1992, Anni is assigned to Hostel 4, infamous for housing 'losers'. He wants to switch blocks and meets the hyper-sexual senior Sexa, who becomes a friend despite an awkward start. The legends of H4 begin to form.

In a 1992 canteen encounter, Anni notices Maya, a popular girl who avoids most suitors. Their paths cross but she remains distant as Anni navigates the campus social scene. The memory foreshadows later intersections with Maya's life.

Sundar 'Mummy' Shrivastava and his mother anchor the campus while a pro-ragging request lands in their hands. Acid, a top student turned brash, joins the group and becomes a foil for the others. The 1992 crew's dynamics begin to take shape.

Raggie Chalkar, a famed H3 hostelite, offers Anni a transfer to the rival hostel, but Anni rejects it to stay with Maya and the friends. Derek D'Souza, who once was rotting after a rejection, is mentioned as a contrast. The decision cements the H4 crew.

The six boys vow to sacrifice something close to them to win the GC, and Anni temporarily withdraws from Maya. Bevda's relapse lands him in hospital and threatens the team's morale. The pressure tests their resolve and cohesion.

Anni assigns Abhimanyu 'Danda' Rathore to lose weight, with Derek supervising his training. Danda competes in the 42 kg category and wins, delivering a crucial victory for H4. The win rekindles the team's drive as the GC nears its climax.

Bevda returns and keeps chess points flowing while Acid and Derek win the relay final. A bar celebration turns tense when Mummy injures his finger, altering the day's momentum. The team pushes through setbacks toward the GC.

Anni's final shot at the basketball match misses by a hair, costing H4 the GC win by a close margin. Raghuvir Chalkar publicly calls them 'champs' for the first time, lifting spirits and erasing the 'losers' label. The moment reinforces that effort and teamwork matter more than the final score.

Back in the present, the group rejects the idea that Raghav is a loser and refuses to let him give up. Anni explains that the H4 'losers' were really fighters who gave their best effort. The memory reframes Raghav's crisis as a test of resilience.

That night, Dr Kasbekar informs that Raghav's convulsions require immediate surgery. Maya and the friends encourage Anni as he pleads for a few minutes to finish the story. The flashback and the present converge at the operating theatre.

After a successful recovery, Raghav begins his first day at a new campus, insisting the viewers not worry about the college name or rank. He carries the memory of his father's stories and the 'losers' turned champs with him. Grown-up apparitions of his parents and friends cheer him as he starts life anew.
