Flames Season 02 Episode 01 Recap: Kuch Toh Hua Hai, Kuch Hogaya Hai
In the previous season, the four friends go through great ups and downs. But, their love and trust brought them together regardless of how hopeless they were feeling. Finally, things have started to build up between Ishita and Rajat. Let us see what roads they walk to in this season.

Rajat stands at the bus stop on a rainy day. Ishita calls him from behind and asks him to come stand under her umbrella. But, he does not respond. Rajat looks frazzled. On being asked, Rajat answers that he cannot take it anymore. After a bit of hesitation, Ishita agrees with him. She says that he has finally proved her right - monsoons are not romantic. She throws away the umbrella and takes the bus. My little heart is so curious to find out what has happened between them.
In flashback, we see Rajat and Ishita bond over bad jokes and long walks. They flirt with each other and do silly things together. One day, while walking in the market, Rajat and Ishita talk about their families. But, Ishita zones out in between and does not want to carry on with the conversation. When they sit on a bench, a woman from a water purifier company asks them to take part in a trust challenge. They agree and we see Ishita and Rajat being clicked in front of the company’s stall. The challenge requires Ishita to fall back and trust Rajat who will catch her from behind. But, Ishita becomes conscious of the fact that she might fall. After a few pictures, Rajat becomes uncomfortable and leaves. The woman gives Ishita the framed picture of them. Rajat is upset that Ishita does not trust him enough.
Meanwhile, Anusha is mad at Gaurav. Rajat meets them and Gaurav rebukes him for being late. Gaurav and Anusha meet Anusha’s friend, Sunny earlier that day. Gaurav was disrespectful to Sunny which made Anusha furious. But, Rajat and Gaurav do not take the incident seriously which makes her angrier. When Anusha leaves the scene to bring something to eat, Rajat asks Gaurav to honestly tell him why he is jealous of Sunny. Gaurav tells him how Sunny is always touchy with Anusha. Gaurav suggests that Rajat never complain in a new relationship or else he will become the whining boyfriend.
That night, Rajat receives a text from Ishita. She asks him if he is okay after what happened in the market. Despite the urge to complain, Rajat tells her that he is fine and she does not have to worry about him. He does not want to come across as a whining boyfriend. Rajat plans for Ishita’s birthday which is in four days.
Next day at Mr. Momos, Rajat tells Gaurav about the dress he plans to buy for Ishita. While they talk, Ishita and Anusha arrive. After an interesting conversation, Rajat asks Anusha and Gaurav to take part in the trust fall challenge, the same one that Ishita and Rajat took in the market. He takes them to the market where Gaurav and Anusha successfully complete the trust fall challenge. But, Rajat and Ishita again fail, which leaves Rajat very disturbed.
He again gets a text from Ishita. She asks him to talk on call but Rajat makes an excuse to get out of it.
Rajat, along with Gaurav, comes to Ishita’s society with her gift. Ishita’s birthday is in a few minutes and he wants to surprise her. With the help of a basket in her balcony, Ishita and Rajat exchange their gifts. Ishita gives him a return gift of the photo frame she received at the water purifier stall.
Rajat is very happy and wants them to be the best couple ever. Ishita assures him that they are already the best and she is very happy when she is with him. Rajat wishes her a happy birthday.
After watching the flashback, I do not want to come back to the present where Rajat wants to end things with her. I am so excited to know what will happen to them in the next episode. I really hope that things again fall in place for them.
