What is the answer to the last question?

A.

So, does everyone understand current electricity?

Yes, Bhaiya!

-Is it clear? -Yes, Bhaiya!

Let me know if anyone has any doubts.

Or else, you'll get a 220-volt shock in the next test!

It's all clear, Bhaiya!

The Sunday evening extra class will now be conducted at 10:00 a.m.

-Okay, Bhaiya. -Will you remember that?

Yes, Bhaiya.

Bhaiya, do you have a date in the evening?

Why is he so grouchy?

Lately, Bhaiya has been taking our jokes rather seriously.

Very seriously.

What's wrong with you? Don't you want to go?

I can't crack this question.

Why didn't you ask Bhaiya?

Which one?

This one?

Thank God you didn't ask.

Even I'd think twice before asking about this.

This is pretty simple.

Look.

You need to find the current required to charge the battery. Okay?

We'll have to supply the current to the positive terminal of the battery,

so the direction will be reversed. That's it.

Now, the equation will be -200-iR+220=0.

The value of i will be 20 amperes.

It's simple.

You solved it in no time.

Simple questions can be solved just by reading them properly.

You just have to be a little careful.

You know what they say in Maheshwari?

If you don't pay attention to physics, it'll unleash its kilowatt on you!

Come, let's go.

This isn't normal, man.

You told me that a former student wanted to meet me, so I agreed.

But you planned an entire podcast session with him!

Bhaiya, their podcasts are popular!

They've been after me for three months. How long could I stall them?

And with this, we can also promote AIMERS.

That's why you caved, right?

Make it clear to him that I won't be endorsing AIMERS.

All right, Bhaiya. One more thing.

Pooja didi refused.

We'll need a chemistry teacher.

Who's going to teach them next year?

Hey, Meena!

-What's wrong? -Mr. Balmukund is here!

Greetings, didi.

Greetings to you!

So, where do you plan to live starting tomorrow?

What do you mean?

Mom suggested putting a lock on Balmukund's room

because she believes he's getting too clever!

He consistently avoids paying rent.

He thinks we'll eventually forget to ask

and the month will pass by for free!

Not at all, didi.

I'll withdraw money from the ATM today--

If the rent isn't paid by tonight, your room will be locked tomorrow.

Mom's name, Bholi, implies innocence, but she's anything but innocent.

Meena, why do you tolerate this? Slap the rent money onto her face!

Sure, I will.

She was being very mean!

Who is it?

Uday ji, it's me.

Come in, Meena. It's all safe.

No.

You said the same thing last time.

Meena, I swear everything's good in here.

Hello!

Hello.

Head massage?

How are you, bhai?

Fine.

What's up?

Have you got something to eat, Uday ji?

You didn't eat?

I've told you so many times not to skip dinner.

Come on, man!

Meena, you did go to the mess last night, right?

No. I went during the day.

Did you pay that wretch the rent?

I paid half the rent.

Meena, let me know if you're facing problems.

If you need some money…

No, Uday ji.

My family will send some money.

Then I'll slap the rent money onto Bholi ji's face!

He isn't going to the mess, nor is he paying his rent.

He's not even recharging his phone.

And yet he refused the money I tried to offer him.

This is Meena we're talking about. He will never borrow money.

Hey!

Hey, Bubu!

I've got some homemade laddoos.

I've saved them with great difficulty.

Don't gobble them up, you two!

-Can we at least have one each? -Just half a laddoo.

Come on, move.

Bye!

Meena!

Baati laddoos.

Shivangi's mom sent them.

You made my day, Uday ji.

Enjoy!

-You see how I work my charm? -Here you go.

Sure.

-I see how you work your charm. -Right?

This is amazing.

Yes.

Uday ji, it's very tasty!

Everyone yearns for food cooked by a mother's hands.

Oh, my!

Glory to the God!

-This is God's blessing! -Absolutely.

This money is godsent.

It should remain with God. Right?

On point, Bhaiya!

Even your teasing brings us joy.

So, Bhaiya,

when students approach you with trivial problems,

do you get angry?

PREPARATION FOR VICTORY

No, I don't think their problems are trivial.

When you were a child, solving 2+2 must have been a challenge for you.

Yes.

If you look at these problems through the lens of maturity,

-it will seem like a trivial issue. -Yes.

But it's pretty serious for them.

Bhaiya, I'd like to address a serious topic now.

You see, the study environment in Kota is very intense.

Some students get motivated by it, while it demotivates others.

Some achieve top ranks,

while others have their confidence completely shattered

to the point where they resort to drastic measures.

And here, we just keep celebrating the ranks.

What do you think?

Well, I think

students put in a lot of effort to attain a top rank.

They totally deserve to celebrate when selected.

In fact, they should also be rewarded.

But I believe that the students who don't get through

aren't failures either.

We must understand there are very limited seats in IIT.

Let me give you an example.

Let's assume the cutoff is 91,

and there's a student who scores 90 marks. They won't be selected.

Tell me, would you label that child a failure for just one mark?

I wouldn't.

I don't think they're a failure.

There are many students who put in the same 15 hours of hard work

and study with the same dedication.

But they fall short.

They grow too!

Yes.

The students who previously scored 40 eventually score 90.

It's the education system and society that actually fail.

We fail to value their growth, efforts, and dedication.

We are busy churning out rank holders.

-Kota has turned into a factory. -True.

The students who aren't selected are discarded.

I feel quite sad that

once the results come out, we don't pay any attention to their progress.

Bhaiya, you just said that it is the education system that actually fails.

Shouldn't the government be taking action?

Yes, the education policies need to be modified.

The policies for competitive exams, in particular, need to be changed.

It isn't right

to label a child as being a success or a failure in the name of education.

I believe we should celebrate not only successful selections,

but also successful preparations.

It's not preparation for victory.

Preparation itself is victory.

Right. "Preparation itself is victory."

Now that will be the name of my show, Bhaiya.

So, friends, that was Jeetu Bhaiya, Kota's finest teacher.

If you want to study under him, you'll have to come to his institute,

-AIMERS. -Yes.

Thank you, Jeetu Bhaiya.

Meena, tell me one thing.

How many friends do you have in Kota?

Shivangi ji…

Vartika ji, Meenal, and…

Jeetu Bhaiya is a friend as well.

What about us?

You two are like my brothers.

-We are, right? -Yes.

-Are you sure? -Yes.

So, why are you hiding your problems from your brothers?

What problem? There is no problem.

-Really? -Hey, Meena!

We can tell just from your face whether you've taken a dump today or not!

And you're keeping your financial problems from us!

Come on, man!

Here's some money.

No, I can't take that money.

-Why can't you? -Why?

What's your problem?

I don't know

how long my problem will last.

The village is facing a drought, and I found out about it from my cousin.

Parents don't tell their children about their problems, Uday ji.

Meena, you don't have to worry about the money, man!

Pay me back later, and it's fine even if you don't.

We're brothers. I'll manage.

I get your point.

You want to help me like Lord Krishna,

but I am not Sudama.

Becoming Sudama is really difficult.

After receiving a favor like that from a friend,

you feel a little hesitant every time you see them.

It begins to feel shameful, not being able to return the favor.

I'll start feeling insignificant among my friends.

Why would you feel insignificant?

-Do we make you feel insignificant? -What are you saying?

Why would you hesitate to accept a favor?

Meena, I know your self-respect is very important to you,

and that's great.

But you'll have problems if you refuse to take this money.

No.

I have survived with fewer resources in the past. I'll manage.

-Meena, it's not about managing-- -Vaibhav…

continuing to discuss this

will truly make me feel insignificant.

Well, all right.

What can I say? He just won't budge.

Wait a minute.

Meena!

This is about self-respect, right?

I've got an idea that will sort things out for you.

Be ready tomorrow before the morning class.

No, no. I don't have any valuable possessions to pawn.

Just be ready.

Okay.

-Come on! -Come on!

-No! Backward! -Come on!

Go back!

-Go for it! -Go for it!

Yes!

-Come on! -Go back!

-Meena. -Right.

Come along.

-Come on. -Let's go, Meena.

Come on. Chintu!

This is Rajesh bhaiya's gaming parlor.

This is Rajesh bhaiya's son Chintu. How are you?

I'm good. How are you?

I'm good too.

He's a dear friend.

Come here.

I've spoken to him about the pay.

He'll give you 3000 rupees in advance.

Why?

You have to tutor him for an hour every day.

What about my studies?

Come on, Meena!

You spend more time figuring out ways to save money.

If I quit taking tea breaks in the evening,

I can save about half an hour.

-And… -Meena!

Kids in Kota tend to fabricate stories to their families to obtain some money.

They don't think as much before lying to their families

as much as you are thinking about doing this good deed.

Go for it, man!

It's a win-win situation.

Please say yes.

I also dream to be a rank holder just like you.

Yeah!

No.

That's not possible.

The first rule of my class is never say "dream," say "aim" instead.

Dreams are seen,

while aims are achieved.

That's more like it!

Now, look at this.

If current flows through this coil in this direction,

the magnetic field will be generated here.

What happened?

Try the next one.

Vartika is studying magnetism with Vaishali.

-So? -So?

She told me that she wouldn't study magnetism this week.

Oh, Vartika lied to you! That's really strange.

AN FIR WILL BE FILED FOR DISTURBING STUDENTS

It would be even stranger if we get sent to jail for making noise in the library.

-A FIR is not something trivial! -Relax.

He's making a call.

Hello, Dad.

Please come and manage this place.

Greetings, sir.

I'm on time today.

Excellent.

The kids aren't here, or else I would have asked them to applaud you.

Tell me, what brings you by?

Sir, I found out about your health condition.

I've been meaning to visit you.

How are you feeling?

I'm right before you.

Absolutely fit.

Is everything going well with AIMERS?

How is Gagan?

Gagan sir is fine.

All's well with AIMERS.

But, sir, we're facing the same problem.

We need a chemistry teacher for AIMERS.

I don't want to make the same mistake again.

So, I'm here to seek advice from you.

You're making a mistake yet again, Jeetu.

I have said it before.

You are not just looking for a teacher,

you are looking for a founder teacher.

Yes, sir, you explained this, but I still don't understand.

How do you discern everyone?

Not everyone.

But when a teacher comes wearing a mask, it becomes

apparent to me.

I'll talk to Pooja.

I already had a word with Pooja ma'am.

So?

After moving to Kota, we tend to miss out on a lot.

I'm happy after moving to Kota.

I have gained a lot here.

-Hey, listen. -Yeah?

You want to start studying the chapter on magnetism tomorrow?

Not right now.

I'm studying chemistry.

I can't switch right now.

Chemistry is important too.

Your friend-- What's her name? Vaishali.

How was her physics test?

She said it went well.

She's expecting to score around 38 marks.

Oh!

That's it? Thirty-eight?

This test was pretty easy.

I'll score around 44.

Is she struggling with physics?

No, I just want to know if physics is her weak point.

Bye, Vaibhav.

Vartika!

I thought Vaishali was better at physics than me.

That's why you've been studying with her instead of me.

You won't understand, Vaibhav.

Good night.

He's here! My teacher is here!

Twenty-one days.

You will get used to it in 21 days.

Then studying for long hours will become easy.

I've been through it as well.

Say something, little guy!

Yes.

You explain everything well, Meena sir.

Not "Meena sir." Call me Meena bhaiya.

Okay, Meena bhaiya.

He got a perfect score on the school test yesterday.

Really?

Wow!

Looking at his progress, his aunt also wants you to teach her son.

He's in the eighth grade. He'll also come here.

Teach one from six to seven, and the other from seven to eight respectively.

Okay?

Well…

taking another hour out from my schedule

will be very difficult.

That's all right.

Fees.

They're ready to pay you 4,000 rupees if you agree…

TIMETABLE

6 - 8 TUTORING

8 - 9 DPP

Hey!

-Happy anniversary, baby! -It's not our anniversary.

It's not?

So, why the cake?

Does it have to be an anniversary for us to eat cake?

Yeah.

Wealthy people can eat cake anytime, Meena!

Here, cut it.

Bhaiya,

I have a math test the day after tomorrow, and I don't understand anything.

Really?

Okay. I'll explain once his class is over.

-Hi, Meena bhaiya. -Sit.

6 - 9 TUTORING

9 - 10 DINNER AND DPP

-Hello? -Yes, Vaibhav?

Hey, Meena. Listen up.

Bring your notes on rotational motion to Jeetu Bhaiya's class.

I'll get them copied today.

Today?

It's good you reminded me, Vaibhav.

I forgot we have Bhaiya's class this evening.

You? Forget about the class?

Are you pranking me?

Just make sure you remember to bring the notes along.

Yeah, you got it! I'm leaving now.

RAJESH BHAIYA

What the hell is wrong with him?

He didn't bring me the notes, and now he's not answering my calls.

Why are you so irritated?

What's wrong?

Vartika?

Yeah, man.

-I took her out on a date. -Okay.

Everything was perfect. We had a good time.

We also had many romantic conversations.

I asked her if she wanted to study with me,

but she refused.

Yes.

When I asked her the reason, she said, "You won't understand."

-What kind of dual nature is this? -Beats me!

Is Vartika a wave or a particle?

-Listen, I have an idea-- -No, you let it be!

I'm acquainted with your ideas. They're no good.

You talk through your hat after getting high!

Hey, what do you mean?

I only smoke cigarettes and really care about dumbass friends like you!

Apart from this, Uday Gupta has no other bad habits.

Let it go, please. Sorry.

Shivangi, what I intended to tell Uday was that

we should seek help from the right people.

Well, you're right, Vaibhav.

But you should do it at the right time.

But I get it.

Even I would think twice before asking such a simple question.

Look, if you don't pay attention to the relationship,

things can turn into quite the tangled mess.

And you're not paying any attention at all!

-You're taking a jab at me. -It's okay, Vaibhav.

I think this is your first relationship, that's why the basics are a bit messed up.

Let me explain.

Besides, one should always help a weak student.

Hear me out, weak student.

Listen closely.

Vartika, your girlfriend, who is upset with you right now…

What happened?

Did you feel bad?

No, it's okay. Go on.

That's precisely how Vartika feels when you teach her something, Vaibhav.

"Gosh! This is such a simple question!"

"I would think twice before asking about this."

"It's so simple that you should be able to solve it without using a pen!"

"If you don't pay attention to physics, it'll unleash its kilowatt on you!"

Dumbass!

-You mean I hurt her feelings? -Yes!

A person is already vulnerable when they're in love.

She shared her problem with you with such difficulty,

and you are pointing out her mistakes.

Everyone's got a knack for pointing out flaws and making others feel stupid.

You should be backing her up without making her feel stupid.

Damn it!

I'm such an idiot!

You are an idiot.

I've really hurt her.

You can't just sit here and brood.

She's in the library! Go and talk to her!

This is for you.

I've eaten already.

Please take it.

I'm sorry, Vartika.

I know that I'm an idiot.

I didn't even realize that I was making you feel bad while teaching you.

I really didn't intend to hurt you.

And your reaction is completely justified.

My younger brother does the exact same thing.

He likes being tutored by anyone except me.

I have a tendency to be rude while teaching.

Or maybe I'm always rude.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

I'll ensure to maintain my calm while teaching you.

I'll explain everything with love.

Even if I know the answer to a question,

I won't make you feel inferior.

-I promise. -Vaibhav…

there's no need to do anything for me.

Why?

Because no matter how careful you are,

I might still feel bad while learning from you.

What do you mean?

Actually, our relationship is such that

it's important for both of us to be equals.

When you teach me, I'm the student and you're the teacher.

We can't be equals there.

And as far as being rude is concerned,

Vaishali also becomes rude while explaining questions,

but that doesn't bother me.

But it affects me when you do it.

Even the smallest things bother me.

So…

Vaibhav, I feel…

it's better if we study separately.

It's because we study together that we get to spend time together.

And you're saying we should stop that too.

But…

what's the point of spending time together this way if we end up drifting apart?

Vaibhav, the purpose of studying should be to study,

not to spend time together.

I'll…

-Bye. -Bye.

I'm sorry.

Eat it.

Greetings, Dad!

Yes, take your time.

That's not a problem. I've got some money left.

Well, you always say

money is a necessity, and we must save it for rainy days.

So, I've saved up some money.

No, don't you worry.

Okay. You all take care of yourselves as well.

Say hi to Auntie for me.

All right.

Yes, Chintu? Did I leave something behind?

Meena bhaiya…

actually, there's a problem that I can't solve.

I couldn't ask you earlier because Mom was right here.

What is it?

KOTA BARRAGE

Namaste, Bhaiya.

Hey, Meena!

You won't attend class, but here you are!

Sorry, Bhaiya.

I won't skip any more classes.

Tell me, what brings you by?

Bhaiya…

I have a question.

What happens when a boy is attracted to a girl?

Attracted?

Bhaiya, actually, the problem is that

there isn't one but two girls.

So, what should one do in a situation like that?

Two girls?

Yes, Bhaiya.

Are they also attracted to you?

No.

No, Bhaiya. I'm not the one with the problem, my student is.

-Your student? -Yes, Bhaiya.

Uday ji's friend Chintu needed a teacher, and I needed the money.

There's some financial difficulty at home.

So, you've started tutoring.

Yes, Bhaiya.

How many students are there in Balmukund Coaching Center?

There are two students, but I haven't given it a name yet.

-I see. -I can't do it without consulting you.

Where are Uday and Vaibhav?

Meena, come here.

Come here. Come on.

Here.

Attaboy.

Sit.

-What… -Sit.

-No, Bhaiya. -Sit!

Sit.

Very good. Go ahead, sit.

Get comfortable.

So, boys…

what's going on?

Meena's studies are being impacted.

Why didn't you help your naive friend?

Didn't you reason with him?

Bhaiya, you think we didn't reason with him?

We told him to take money from us, but he refused.

Bhaiya, I…

Accepting money from my friends would damage my self-esteem.

-So-- -Sit.

Self-esteem!

So, what's the plan? When are you getting married?

What, Bhaiya?

Well, now that you're earning, you should get married.

-What are you saying, Bhaiya? -Sit down and talk.

What am I saying?

You're the one who's talking big.

You're the one in a hurry to grow up!

You're using big words like "self-esteem,"

and also carrying their burden.

I'm running AIMERS with financial assistance.

Don't I have any self-esteem?

If your self-respect is so important to you, then don't ask for help.

But when a friend is offering help, you should accept it, Meena.

Bhaiya, I've been trying to make him understand,

to seek help from the right person at the right time.

Bhaiya…

Bhaiya, I thought I could handle it myself.

Sure! You should have solved this problem on your own as well!

Why did you think of seeking my help?

Arjuna also sought help from Lord Krishna in the battlefield.

Had he refused help, he would have lost against the Kauravas.

Would he be praised then?

"Wonderful! He may have lost the battle, but at least he didn't ask for help!"

-Is that how it works? -No, Bhaiya.

Right?

What is the matter with you, Meena?

Where have you lost yourself?

Right now, IIT is your top priority.

This petty amount won't make a difference!

In five years, you'll be spending that amount of money in just an hour.

All that matters right now is IIT.

What if you don't get into IIT?

What will you do?

Answer me!

You've scored 28 marks. Go and check.

The average score in class is 38.

You all sabotage yourselves and then blame the teacher.

Your low scores cause us stress.

Bhaiya,

I thought I'd just have to take out two hours from my schedule.

Sorry, Bhaiya.

-I messed up. -Okay, relax.

Now forget about your Balmukund Coaching Center

-and focus on studying. -Yes, Bhaiya.

-Do you understand? -Yes, Bhaiya. I do.

Okay, then get up.

-Okay? Come here. -Sorry.

Seated on my chair!

Come on.

I'll transfer some money. Just keep it.

Pay me back when you start earning.

Okay?

Get going.

Take care.

Also, tell your students to stop paying attention to girls

and focus on studying.

Yes, Bhaiya.

His students!

Why do you do this, Jeetu Bhaiya?

Don't you think you've become overly involved in these kids' lives?

They're my own, sir.

What can I say? I have to be involved.

-Sure. -Jeetu Bhaiya.

What is it?

Did you open a coaching class too?

I'm kidding. What's up?

Bhaiya, we need to talk to you.

Yeah, go on.

Bhaiya, we don't understand math.

What do you think, Gagan sir?

Time to get involved, I guess?

What are you having trouble understanding?

Differential equations and vector algorithm.

Matrices as well, sir.

You don't understand matrices?

That's okay, sir.

We'll deal with it.

Do you understand optics?

-No, sir. -No, sir.

Magnetism?

-No, sir. -No.

When I ask in class, do you just say "yes" without actually understanding?

That's okay, Jeetu Bhaiya.

Anyway, let's have a discussion session tomorrow.

We'll address any doubts others may have as well.

We'll think of a solution.

-Get going. -Okay, Bhaiya.

I'm sure they don't understand chemistry either.

This batch of droppers is quite weak.

No, sir. Some students face difficulties.

Jeetu Bhaiya, you know that when admissions open,

all the top cream students go to Maheshwari first.

The next layer goes to Prodigy.

The remaining students opt to enroll in our institute.

I've observed that this issue is not confined to only a handful of students.

Sixty percent of students face this issue.

So many don't even have an understanding of their eleventh-grade basics. Right?

Should I offer you a solution?

Sure.

My suggestion is to form a focused group for those students

who are good at studying.

This will ensure that the time of other students won't be wasted

by repeatedly going over concepts.

With this focused group, we can at least achieve some good ranks,

because I don't have much hope from the other students.

Look, I understand that

from your perspective, successful preparation is more important.

I saw your podcast.

But at the end of the year, we also need to see good ranks, right?

The results will matter to us as well.

Otherwise, next year, once again, only 100 to 150 students will be joining us.

-Sir, what are you saying? -Yes!

That's a good solution. Let's focus solely on ranks then.

We'll only teach these top ten students and leave out the others.

They won't bring in any ranks anyway.

-That's not what I mean. -Sir, that's exactly what you mean.

Focus on the top performers and disregard the rest!

There's no other way to interpret that.

Sir, every student matters to me.

Whether they bring in a rank or not, I don't care.

I set up AIMERS based on this philosophy, and I'll run it with the same philosophy.

If you're on board with me, great. Otherwise, you can step aside.

All right, Jeetu Bhaiya.

Let's talk about this later.

Regardless of when you talk to me, I won't change my mind.

You make a decision.

Okay.

Gagan sir!

What happened in there?

I don't know.

I've never seen Jeetu react that way.

Listen.

Focus on your studies,

not on girls.

Get it?

-Yes, bhaiya. -Good.
