Hostel Daze (2019)

Groundbreaking dialogues, ingenious one liners and spot on performances are TVF’s forte, and ‘Hostel Daze’ is no exception to the rule.

In their pursuit of love, friendship and CGPA, three new admissions - Ankit (Adarsh Gourav), Chirag (LUV) and Rupesh (Shubham Gaur) have begun accommodating to the wild universe of hostel life. From exploring newfangled sexuality to first love and heartbreak, from crazy birthday celebrations to last minute exam prep, the themes are enticing, and episodes are well paced. I can’t say that everything about the show is a hundred percent true to life, but everything about the show is very warm, very authentic and very amusing.

Like most of TVf’s past content, the creators have chosen to keep the ethos of the show light and follow a familiar style of production, which frankly I have no complaint with. The show seldom addresses the darker aspects of life in college and trivializes villainy like ragging and deceptive college manifestos; which again, if anything, works in favor of the predominant theme of the show.

You’ll also find thoughtful, zany and multi-dimensional characters which are as ardently portrayed on screen as written on script. The show is an absolute no-brainer to recommend and you’ll either end up reminiscing about your own hostel days or gain insight into the logistics of hostel life, thus, making it a win-win regardless.
