Janardhan Jakhar lives in his own world, encompassed with music and dreams of mesmerizing the world with his voice. Midst unsuccessful auditions, and thwarted attempts in creating music, this Delhi boy imbibes a priceless piece of advice from his mentor friend -- great music is borne from great pain. He who hasn't experienced the pain of heartbreak shall not know the depth and intensity of sublime music.
Janardhan now sets out to find the pain that will make his life and music go beyond the realm of the ordinary. He proposes to Heer, the stunning beauty from the college. Quiet and subdued, Heer has a well of emotion hidden inside, a ocean of unfettered energy waiting to exude. The story of Janardhan and Heer starts off as one of laughter and mirth, but with every passing day, this becomes more intense, more passionate and more vulnerable.
Heer and Janardhan get separated, as she gets married off to Prague. Janardhan's pain of separation translates into words and music, transcending the heart and the soul. Janardhan becomes Jordan, as he relentlessly pursues his love, at once pining away and accepting the absence of Heer in his life. At the end, as he spirals down the road of fame and fortune in his professional life, Jordan realizes that his and Heer's story exists beyond the worldly, in his imagination, where the music is pure and the only drug needed is true love.

Get Educated: Paathshaala
The story starts with the joining of a new English teacher, Rahul Prakash Udyavar (Shahid Kapoor), in Swaraswati Vidya Mandir School, situated in the outskirts of Mumbai's suburbs. Though he creates an instant rapport with students and teachers alike, he realizes that there is something amiss in this school. Slowly his doubts come true as the manager of the school, Sharma (Saurabh Shukla), makes many monetary obligations compulsory for the parents in the name of extracurricular activities. He goes to the extent of punishing the students inhumanely when the parents do not fulfill the new unjustified demands of the school. Day by day the stress level of the students increases, leading to unexpected and grim consequences. The situation becomes so explosive that it becomes a national issue. Paathshaala tries to answer many questions related to the sanctity of today's education system. The high morals and basic ethics of the teachings have taken a back seat. Profit and more profit have become a new mantra of educational institutions. Paathshaala is not afraid of telling the truth about the wrong doings of greedy educational institutes; neither does it spare them from exposing the use of unethical media activities for the children who are yet not ready for it.

Harpreet Singh Bedi (Ranbir Kapoor) has just graduated, and his marks are, well, let's say a little embarrassing. But marks never stopped him from dreaming of an exciting and adventurous career, and they never will.
He takes a deep, positive breath and dives into the world of sales, rumoured to be an ultra cool career for all smart people blocked from entering medical, engineering or business schools by brainless entrance exams. It's everything he dreamt of, with its smooth dressing, smoother talking men and women who can sell ice to an Eskimo, dreams to an insomniac, and a lifetime mobile connection to a dying man. But soon, his idea of success begins clashing with the strange ways of these 'professionals' he looked up to.
"ROCKET SINGH - Salesman of the Year" is the sometimes thoughtless, sometimes thoughtful story of a fresh graduate trying to find a balance between the maddening demands of the 'professional' way, and the way of his heart - and stumbling upon a crazy way which turned his world upside down, and his career right side up.
