Kya Mast Hai Life is an Indian teen sitcom television series which ran on Disney Channel India from 27 April 2009 to 7 July 2010. The series produced by Sol Productions had 130 episodes. The show focused on the lives of five college friends: Ragini ('Rags'), Zeeshan ('Zee'), Zenia, Ritu ('Rits') and Vir.

Plot

The show revolves around five college friends and their daily comical lives.

Season 1

Ragini "Rags" Juneja is the 16 year old daughter of Bollywood megastar Sushmita Juneja, about to join Redfield Academy junior college after 10 years of boarding school. Wary of people befriending her only for her status again, she makes the decision to hide her wealth and fame. Her mother doesn’t understand her concerns and Rags has to go as far as threatening her body guard with false allegations of laziness to get him to not trail her into school.

At Redfield, she meets a band of inseparable childhood friends: Zenia Khan, a fiery girl, her twin brother Zeeshan ‘Zee’ Khan, a hopeless flirt, Vir Mehra, whose parents want him to become a doctor like them despite his hemophobia, and Ritu Shah, who called BBB which stands for ‘Bin Baadal Barsaat’ (rain without clouds) for her tendency to burst into tears.

Zenia and Ritu look down upon the school’s most popular girls, known as the Teen Titliya (Three Butterflies) for being monied and snobbish. To avoid being alienated by her new friends, Rags lies to them, saying her mom is a kindergarten teacher and that she is a poor singer, despite her being excellent at singing. She also falsely claims her expensive clothes are cheap imitations to repel the attentions of the Teen Titliya.

Her friends eventually find out her secrets and, while initially angry, they ultimately forgive her.

Season 2

The events of the second season take place during summer vacations. Zee works at a bookstore in which Mr. Mandal is temporarily in charge. Ritu is shown to be in Ahmedabad. Zee and Zenia's mother is introduced. The season starts with Zee discovering a magic potion that makes the last thoughts of the characters come true. When Ritu returns, Ragini, Zee, Zenia, and Vir have a wonderful adventure with the magic potion. But when they visit Ragini in Thailand, the magic potion turns out to be a ghost who wants to take revenge on the gang because of a mistake Zee made. Zee eventually defeats him, and they celebrate Ragini's birthday happily. They all breathe a sigh of relief thinking that the magic potion which had caused them so much trouble was gone, but it is actually back in Zee's bag. The series ends with a triumphant episode and it says that the five will be best friends forever.
