Kota Factory (2019)

Kota Factory stands distinctly among the plethora of repetitive content on the web. All the characters are impeccably portrayed, resonating with the masses who may have been IIT aspirants, if not essentially in Kota. The entire series is shot in Black & White, which somehow gets the viewer even more engrossed in the content. It has a steady screen play with hardly any dull moments. The series exceeds the expectations set by the Teaser.

This web series can make one understand how to select over ongoing daily incidents. The struggle of a student between studies, love, friendship and above all the emotional and mental changes is greatly shown. Kota factory is a masterpiece. The black and white shoot makes the viewer move back to his or her hostel days. It has an amazing story line, controlled acting by each character and the interplay between them.
Every student must watch it and understand how important it is to balance your career and do what you actually love, for achieving your goals in success.

TVF’s Kota Factory follows the story of a small-town boy Vaibhav who, like many others, dreams of making it into IIT. The name of the series itself indicates how the city is known for manufacturing the “ideal” students for IIT. It goes away from the conventional colour to black and white, which sets the mood perfectly – monotonous and gloomy, along with the intense pressure of emerging victorious in this tough competition. However, in the midst of the gloom, we get to see Vaibhav’s blooming friendship with his fellow Prodigy students, Meena and Uday. While all three of them have different shades of character, they all share the same goal, help each other through their insecurities and act as constant pillars of support to each other. What makes the series even better is the trio’s relationship with their teacher, Jeetu, who not only guides them through Physics but also through life as their “agony aunt”, making us all wish we had a mentor like him. However, the show is not without its faults with its extreme level of promotion of Unacademy, deviating from its focus with the introduction of Vaibhav’s love interest, Vartika, and the gross stereotypical portrayal of Meenal, the batch topper of the trio. With Vaibhav now moving to the more prestigious institute Maheshwari in the last episode, it will be interesting to see what is to come for him and his friends.

The black and white series is sure to take you down the path of memory lane, making you reminiscent of your days of IIT or Medical aspirants. It explores the travails of young IIT aspirants in Kota as they aspire to enroll themselves in IITs. It works as a gentle satire on the education system where coaching is more important than schools and wherein only that is focused which is going to appear in exams, regardless of an overall intention of learning. It also discusses Indian parents and their hopes for their children's future.
The journey of young 16-17 year old students is sure to remind you of your classroom stories. The series has a strong element of nostalgia. The leave-taking at the end is extremely emotional. The series is specifically relatable for the IIT-Medical aspirants and generally relatable for the students who have had coaching for at least once in their lives.
Though the series is largely good and greatly appreciated by students, it takes up a slow turn at certain places. The narrative becomes slightly slow at places.
Overall the series is great and a must watch for all the coaching students in the country.

It was A kind of rewind for those students who lived in hostel. The black and white shoot makes it awesome. The characters are so well written and the whole cast did wonderful job. The story revolves around a bright student vaibhav that how he started his journey towards the most difficult part of the person's life-studying in between he finds good friends, he also fall in love.

You know the feeling you get when something has happened with you is happening again but not with you;yes nostalgia. This web series portrays the life of a typical science student and i could not relate to more. We've all been there, the struggle between organic and inorganic chemistry. And shuffling between crushes and subjects, it's a bitter sweet feeling. And I feel it. It's a superb series. It shows the relationship between teacher and student(s). Well we all have that one teacher who's like our "bro" and who's been through the same things were going through and is the best guide , well *JEETU BHAIYA* is the one.
This series also shows how going away from home for studies feels like, how our parents put all their blood and sweat to help us get through life. Even though they might have to stay away from us. It's just a beautiful conglomeration of good old feelings and school life.
A must recommend.
** Curiously waiting for season 2**

It is an amazing web series by Tvf. The way they represent it by using black and white makes it more vibrant and classical, less distracted from surrounding and receiving real emotions. The best thing is that it beautifully portrays life away from home and harsh realities of life. It shows how much difficult it is to prepare for III exam or competition in the country. They also show the relationship of friendship which is the best part for me. Although I thought those who prepared for IIT would relate it well.
