Original subtitles

Sir! Alakh sir.

You only need a pen and a notebook to change your destiny.

Alakh sir.

Where are you going?

-Dream big. -Sir!

Your dreams will come true only when you dare to see them.

I never stepped back from hard work.

Child!

Even if they take away one Alakh,

I'll bring a thousand more into the world.

Move out of the way!

The focus and

commitment with which you all chase one goal,

that's the real degree.

Prepare yourself to become capable!

This capability will stay with you for your entire life.

Rather, prepare yourself to become so capable

that IIT comes to your doorstep and says,

"Child, I want you."

Hello, children!

-Sir… -One selfie.

Sir, one selfie.

Sir…

Sir, one selfie.

Sister, I…

I want to shut down Physics Wallah.

-Sir, please. -One selfie.

BARIYAR, BIHAR

Yeah, didn't I tell you?

-No. How's it going? -All good, sir.

No, I wasn't talking to you.

Yeah, I'll grab it on my way back.

Anything else?

Son, fetch me some water.

EDUCATION GUIDES US OUT OF DARKNESS AND INTO THE LIGHT

Hand me your notebook.

Sit.

You can sit.

Did you wander in from some party?

Where's your notebook?

I drank two liters of water, but I was still hungry,

so I ate two samosas with the money meant for the notebook.

Let's see you dance!

SCIENCE

Show us your moves!

You haven't been full in ten days.

On mid-day meal day, you piled it in like there was no tomorrow, didn't you?

Come on!

Do the chicken pose!

Hariya, where's your notebook?

Sir…

My mom said she'll get her daily wage by tomorrow, so after that…

Hey! You won't help him.

He has to get his own notebook.

Until then, he drops down and does the chicken pose.

Got it? Show me your hands.

Come on, show me.

There you go. Now the other.

There you go.

That's right.

That's right. Get lost!

Hey! Do the chicken pose!

Where's Jhilmil?

Master ji, he got a job in the city washing dishes.

He'll be making 10,000.

That's good.

At least someone landed a job.

He'll work and earn a living. Good for him.

Shankar, write this on the board.

Everyone, take out your notebooks

and go over Newton's laws of motion.

Write it down.

What are we learning today?

-Newton's laws of motion. -Yes.

Tell him.

Hello, children!

Let's begin. How's everything?

How are you all?

You need to walk in fully prepared, Alakh.

These are eleventh graders.

You're not a star teacher to them.

They'll judge you based on this very class.

This is their first class,

and it's also yours, for them.

You all must have enjoyed your weekend.

Tell me who watched the match.

Read a few comments and crack a joke about them.

Have some laughs.

A little at their expense and a little at your own.

Rahul writes, "Sir, I didn't watch the match

because I had a breakup."

"I want to patch up. Please share some tips."

Remember, it's not just a class.

It's a show.

Wow, Rahul bhai.

Your name truly matches your wonderful deeds.

Bro, listen. Even I couldn't hold on to my girl,

so who am I to give you tips? But yes,

you'll definitely get physics tips here.

That I can guarantee a hundred percent!

And with that, let's start

our first class.

Make sure their attention doesn't slip for even a second.

They need to fall in love with physics.

So, children, how do I even begin to tell you what physics is?

If they fall in love with physics,

they'll fall in love with you too.

The coming of day and night,

the cold and the heat, the rain,

the rainbow forming in the sky,

the waves rising and falling in the ocean,

the volcanoes erupting with a thunderous boom…

Anyone can teach a student who is eager to learn.

The one who teaches…

the student who's not eager is the real teacher.

…my voice you can hear,

the light in which you see me.

How did all this happen?

What are these magical tricks?

This, my friend, is what we call physics.

Too dramatic?

Come on, physics deserves at least this much, bro!

Now listen. Whether science is true or God,

there's no point arguing about it.

Who knows, maybe both are the same.

And that is physics for me.

Physics is love, the rest we're not thinking of.

Rahul, did you get that?

Physics is love.

Now they will have questions.

You'll answer their physics questions all year,

but the question asked today

will matter the most.

Smriti says, "Sir, I want to be a doctor

because a doctor is considered God."

No, Smriti beta, a doctor is not God.

Even you're preparing for NEET, and you're human, right?

And do you think that after clearing one exam,

getting a high rank, and entering AIIMS,

you'll become God?

No.

That's not how it works, beta.

For that, you have to sacrifice every single day of your life.

And think about this.

If one day, because of your small mistake,

someone loses their life,

will you be able to live with that guilt?

Forget saving others.

What will you do when you have to risk your own life?

So, children, a doctor is not God,

but they become like one

by doing their duty every single day.

So, Smriti beta, you need to decide

whether you want to be a normal, successful person

or a god who helps people every day.

-The choice is yours. -Sir…

Sir!

-What happened? -We're running late for the meeting.

What meeting?

The funding meeting with the investment banker.

Prateek bhai, I don't understand why you keep bringing up this "funding" thing.

Everything is running smoothly.

We have a great office, excellent courses,

amazing teachers, and a strong team.

When everything is going so well, why do we need funding?

I'm asking you!

See, your point--

Today, you'll explain to me why we need funding.

Fine, sir. Then listen.

How can you say, "That's all you'll get for 4,000"?

Sir, only after we get the funding will we be able to provide

the best teachers and the best servers at this price.

I don't care about server costs.

I need our videos to reach every corner of India.

Sir, that user lives in Jharkhand.

Literally in the middle of a forest.

She travels 50 kilometers every day just to collect OMR sheets.

Stop dispatching whatever material is ready.

And call back what's already been sent. Send it all with the OMR sheets.

But what about the cost?

Sir, we always want to help everyone like this.

Teaching through YouTube, we've already reached ten million kids.

But our goal is 250 million kids, right?

That's why we need funding, sir.

Forget about the class. This is more important right now.

Forget the class?

Do you even remember I'm a teacher, or have you forgotten?

Wait a minute.

What's this?

PW's app, sir.

The Teacher Leaderboard.

I'm in twenty-third place.

My teaching is suffering because of your meetings,

and this proves it.

Last week, a kid gave me one star.

Since then, I haven't slept peacefully.

Look at my face.

The whole office knows, sir.

Last week, that's all anyone talked about.

We called that kid,

spoke to him, and asked what happened.

He said, "Nothing."

"Alakh sir taught me really well, so I put him in first place."

Don't say it just to spare my feelings, Prateek bhai.

Sir, I swear to you. Trust me.

Forget the leaderboard. You're not bad.

It's just that the other teachers are a little better. That's it.

Time to go.

-Where to? -I have a class.

There's still an hour and a half. Is your watch running fast?

The thing is, Prateek bhai,

the other teachers are better than me,

so I need time to prepare.

Enjoy your tea.

So, children, a doctor is not God,

but they become like one

by doing their duty every single day.

Howzat?

Bhai, I found it!

What? A link for a new movie?

No, bhai.

My aim!

You just found it?

I found mine a long time ago.

Number one prime minister,

and if that doesn't happen by chance,

I'll definitely become a cricketer.

I've had enough of this underground life.

I want to do something big.

I want to be famous.

Hey, Mr. Famous,

forget being human. Do you want to be a god?

-Yes. -Look at this.

Are we really making a song about becoming God now?

Do you want to spend your life staring at other people's status,

or make one of your own?

Say what you want, man,

but this tattooed teacher speaks so well.

-Doesn't he? -Shut up! Shut up!

I'm not interested, man. I don't want to hear anything.

-You have a million excuses not to study.… -Hey!

-Do you want to become a god? -Yes, I do.

Hey, bro.

Even I want to become a god.

-Here you go. -I want to listen too.

-Show me too. I want to be one as well. -Hold on a second.

Don't pull it. It'll break.

-It'll break. I'll show you. -Hey!

What's all this commotion?

Sir, I have a question.

For the first time in ages.

It must be important. Go ahead.

Sir, actually, Hariya came up with the question,

so he'll ask it.

-Ask him. -Hariya came up with it?

Go ahead, son.

Sir…

how does one prepare to become a doctor?

What? To become a dacoit?

No, sir.

He's asking about becoming a doctor.

Oh…

So you want to become a doctor?

Yes, sir.

Care to share your recent marks, Doctor Hariya?

Never mind. Forget that.

How much does your dad make?

Even if you add up all your dads' salaries, it still wouldn't be enough.

Do you know who from around here went to prepare for the entrance exam?

Pradhan ji's son.

He spent 400,000 rupees just to land the 200,000th rank.

Now divide 400,000 by your dad's salary.

Go ahead.

Preparation itself needs preparing,

which your parents never did.

For medical school, you have to study 12 hours a day,

but you all spend eight hours doing hard labor.

Even if you manage to clear the exam despite all that,

the course fee is five million rupees.

Five million…

Divide that by your dad's salary again.

How many lifetimes do you think it will take?

-Sir, but-- -Did you get the notebook?

You can't even afford a notebook and dream of becoming a doctor?

Come here and do the chicken pose! Come on!

Bend down!

So, dear Hariya,

will you write the prescription on the patient's hand?

Silence!

Listen to me carefully.

People who spend their whole lives fighting for food, clothing, and shelter

shouldn't dream about reaching the moon.

Get it?

Wants to be a doctor.

He has become a god of chickens.

STUDY ANYWHERE, BUT YOU'LL REACH YOUR DESTINATION FROM HERE

Prateek bhai?

Oh, sir.

How was your class?

Slowly but surely, I'm moving up the leaderboard.

Sir, three teachers have resigned.

Who are they?

Sahil sir, Gaurav sir, and Manish sir. And Varun sir has an offer as well.

Then let's match it and keep them.

They're all good teachers.

Sir, I also want to match their offers, but if we do that,

then we'll have to stop hiring for the tech team,

and we still need to upgrade our servers.

Sir, you always knew

we needed funding for all this, but you never agreed

because you wanted to keep teaching.

Now that these teachers are leaving,

you'll become the top teacher on the leaderboard.

BOSS

Hello?

Sis, I'll be there tomorrow.

Hey, don't be upset.

The teacher couldn't become a doctor even after studying,

so he's taking it out on us.

Bhai, we can still become gods.

Our personalities even match.

Cut it out.

I'm not in the mood.

Listen.

Not 400,000. The coaching costs only 4,000.

Four thousand?

For coaching?

There must be a 4,000 discount on the 400,000 fee.

Go check properly.

Who teaches for such a low fee?

The same guy.

Our tattooed teacher.

Physics Wallah.

"Online NEET prep for only 4,000."

Really? Only 4,000?

You bet.

Hariya, where are you going?

To arrange the money!

Brother, greetings.

You want gold?

It is too expensive, brother. You can't afford it.

Speed up the work, man!

-I already am. -You'd better.

Get moving.

Hey, Ladiya.

Where have you been? I hardly see you around.

It's Hariya, not Ladiya.

Have you seen my mom?

She must be nearby. Go look.

Listen, we got a new tender to build a road.

Interested? You can make some extra money.

If not the road, at least help break the wall.

Aunt!

Yes, Hariya?

Have you seen my mom?

Lakshmi took your father to the hospital.

Listen, the liver is completely damaged.

After this, a transplant is the only option.

Medicines can only ease the pain,

but to quit drinking, he'll need counseling.

Counseling?

-Psy-- -Psychological counseling.

Here.

Give us a form.

-Hand her the file. -Yes.

Write down the patient's name, age, and--

I can read.

-Please deposit 9,000 rupees. -9,000?

Three, four, five.

Here's 5,000.

One, two…

Here's another 2,000.

Hard labor can only strengthen your body.

Becoming a doctor is the only way out of this life.

Even for that, I need money.

Four thousand.

I'll take care of it.

And how exactly?

We hang out, roam, eat, and do everything together.

Where will the money come from?

Remember Jhilmil from the city?

He's working at a dhaba and will hook me up with a job there.

I'll make 8,000 a month.

And you're not going to become a doctor?

Buddy, today is the full moon.

I won't lie.

You're the smart one, not me.

I used to be in the class ahead of you,

but I kept failing until I ended up in your class.

Now I manage to pass by studying and copying from you.

But studying isn't my strength.

I'm very weak at it.

After my parents, the only person who has really looked out for me…

is Aunt Lakshmi.

So I have to repay her too, don't I?

I'll go to the city, start working, and pay for the course.

Yeah, I'll be away from all of you,

but I'll manage.

Hey, this isn't the way.

This is the only way, bhai.

When one man climbs out of the well of poverty,

he can pull five more up with him.

But first, those five have to push him out.

And don't worry,

I'm right behind you.

You'll need money not just for the coaching,

but later too.

I'll send it every month.

Food, clothing, shelter…

I'll take care of it.

You just focus on reaching the moon.

Don't feel bad for me.

People like me are born into this fate.

Tomorrow, when you become a doctor,

you'll help me too, right?

To become the prime minister

or a cricketer?

I'm looking out for my own interests too.

O my friend

When you leave like this tomorrow O my friend

BARIYAR

Learn how life itself teaches you to live

Carry my wings with you and conquer

O my friend

O my friend

O my friend

When you leave like this tomorrow O my friend

SHANTI KUNJ

Sis, it's not narrow vision. It's focused vision.

I have been this way

since I was a child.

Once I started working on physics problems,

nothing else mattered.

It didn't matter if I had added almonds to the milk or not,

brushed my teeth before bed or not,

or finished the homework for other subjects or not.

My eyes stayed on the bullseye.

And now…

teaching is the only thing that gives me any peace.

No matter how hard I try, this funding, operations, and sales work

does nothing for me.

Thank you.

Tell me why you insisted so much that Mom hire a house help.

So she could get some rest. That's it.

But she loves doing everything herself.

She was always so particular about the house.

Move a planter an inch out of place, and she would make a scene.

That's because she loved

hearing the whole neighborhood admire

how beautiful Pandey ji's house looked.

-Get up. -What?

-Come with me. -I'm not done eating.

You can finish later. Come on.

Sis, where are you taking me?

Just come.

Look.

What?

Back then, the neighborhood didn't even have a dustbin,

so people dumped all their trash on the street.

There were piles of cow dung everywhere. Remember?

I stepped in it once and ruined a shoe.

All the streetlights on this road were out for six months.

Kids kept bumping into each other in the dark and scraping their knees.

So you think the municipality is doing a great job?

Can we go back now? The parathas are getting cold.

Mom made all this happen.

What?

Mom did?

Alakh, you come home once every few months.

After Kavita didi started working here,

Mom finally had time to step out of the house.

She looked at every problem in the neighborhood,

got these dustbins installed,

had all the streetlights repaired,

and even put up CCTV cameras everywhere.

She made it mandatory for the cleaning van to visit twice.

Even the councilor never dared to take on the municipal office.

Mom didn't know how to do any of this either.

She learned it.

You're stuck inside the house too, Alakh.

Tell me, do you only want to be India's best teacher,

or do you want to build a platform where every teacher is the best?

One Alakh cannot fix India's education.

But if there were thousands like you, maybe things could change.

Remember how upset Mom was

when we hired Kavita didi?

She's your mom, after all.

You must have been pretty annoyed with Prateek sir too.

Right?

Come on, the parathas are getting cold.

I kept hearing about the gauna

-As the days went by -Bravo, brother!

But the gauna never took place

Wow!

Oh, my-- Pour it.

A little more.

-Hey, Brajesh. -Yeah?

What day is tomorrow?

Tuesday, brother.

-Oh, damn! -That's why we're drinking tonight.

You know, all the top officials are coming for inspection tomorrow.

Whose offspring?

Officials, you fool. Does drinking make you hard of hearing?

Officials.

I was supposed to get this wall torn down,

but it completely slipped my mind.

Do one thing.

Call some laborers right away and have it demolished.

Brother, it's Ekadashi today.

No one will touch their tools.

Phone a bunch of them, and some might agree to come.

Do it now!

How much will you pay, dada?

Hey, Ladiya!

Will you take down the wall?

I can.

Brother,

even the hammer is bigger than this kid.

This is beyond him.

Hey, kid, go get your father.

I'll do it for 4,000.

Four thousand?

Deal!

And listen,

the wall has to be down

by 7 a.m. tomorrow,

or you don't get a single rupee.

Come on, grab the hammer.

And moving further. These are our financial projections,

which are also included in your files. You can take a closer look at them.

And that's it.

Thank you.

Good.

Interesting.

-Your numbers are awesome, guys. -Thank you, sir.

Revenue, profits, COC, superb.

Except for…

the margin.

I know this was your strategy to break in, but…

going forward, we can definitely improve.

Sir, the margin is 60 percent.

-It's good. -It is good,

but that's for other industries.

The education industry is a high-margin industry,

and yours are quite low.

But don't worry. We will normalize it.

My team has done some calculations,

and we can price your 4,000 course

-somewhere around… 25,000. -25,000.

Brother,

you're offering 4,000 to this puny little kid.

Will he be able to take down the wall?

Alakh ji?

Your competitors are selling the same course for 40,000 today.

Sir,

if I increase the price,

many of my students will miss out.

But we don't need all the students.

Even if 40 percent of them enroll,

-we'll hit a great number. -Yeah.

And Alakh, 25,000 is still half the price your competitors are charging.

Plus, it'll still have that "social" aspect, you know.

Absolutely.

And in the education industry, this much margin is what you expect.

This is industry standard.

Exactly.

Well, I think this can be discussed later.

-But before that-- -No.

No.

Sir,

if that's the industry standard, then I'm disrupting the industry.

I'm sorry for my tone, but…

why is education an industry?

It's the right of every student, right?

I'm sorry, but…

your proposal doesn't match my vision.

So…

what is your vision, Alakh ji?

Sir, I believe

education is a great leveler.

But everything that

gives people the chance to be equal,

I'm sorry to say, businessmen build walls around it.

And my vision is to

break down that wall.

Air travel, sir. Look.

A person

can get up

and go to any corner of the world.

A great leveler.

But earlier, plane tickets used to be very expensive.

There was a wall.

A wall between the rich and the poor.

Then someone came with a low-cost airline.

They broke this wall.

Internet.

Anyone can access any information from anywhere.

Another great leveler.

But earlier,

mobile phones and the internet used to be very expensive.

There was a wall.

There was a time when people checked their watches even for incoming calls, right?

Then, yet again, someone came

and made data nearly free

and broke down this wall as well.

Coming to education, sir.

We all know that worldwide, the fees for higher education are very expensive.

And this is a very big wall, sir.

At least India has government institutes

that give poor students a shot at quality education.

But once again, I'm sorry to say, businessmen didn't take it kindly,

and they built a new kind of wall with the fees

for coaching needed to clear the entrance exams for these institutes.

Now, after paying hundreds of thousands, a rich kid goes far ahead of a poor kid.

Meanwhile, poor parents have to spend years

just arranging for their child to study in that coaching.

They have to gather funds, take loans.

I want to break this wall.

Now, no one will have to prepare just to prepare.

And I'm sure I don't want to miss even a single child.

If there's even one child anywhere in this country who wants to study,

they'll not miss out because of money.

Because money should not be an obstacle to education.

But everything you said was number-driven, sir.

Transactional talks.

And I believe education cannot be transactional.

Because education is not a luxury…

it's a birthright.

And this is my vision, sir.

Sorry.

I couldn't control myself.

What are you saying, sir?

You gave an incredible speech inside.

You keep hiring for the tech team.

I'll take a pay cut.

From now on,

include me in every meeting,

whether it's about funding, academics, strategy, or operations.

And your class?

I'm dropping it.

Tomorrow is my last class.

I'm done cleaning my own house.

Now it's the neighborhood's turn.

Have you given up already?

Bhola?

Weren't you leaving for the city?

Prateek bhai.

I'm sorry.

Yes, I was.

I was on the bus,

but I ended up watching the tattooed teacher's video again.

I sometimes lose my cool.

Until now, you have handled everything.

Damn, that guy really fires you up!

I may be weak,

but I'm not a fool.

It takes me some time, but I always get it in the end.

Now, let's build this together.

Now we'll become doctors together.

What, sir? Planning to play hero by yourself?

Let me knock down a few bricks of that wall too.

Very well.

Then let's make it a two-hero film.

But…

we can't pull this off alone by tomorrow morning.

-Long live… -Mother India!

Hey!

Notebook?

But we can't pull this off alone by tomorrow morning.

We are not alone.

Go.

All these paths stand in awe, you see

See how stubborn dreams can be

All these paths stand in awe, you see

See how stubborn dreams can be

Give dreams their meaning Give effort its due

Give wings to the birds That pierce the sky through

By right, we claim the sky we see

See how stubborn dreams can be

Hello, children!

How is everyone? All good?

Sir? Alakh sir!

-Sir… -What happened?

Every teacher we gave a raise to has resigned.

Subtitle translation by: Vishal Singh

Why is only my photo here?

Put up the whole team's photo.

Sir, everything here is moving so fast

that we never found the time to take a group photo.

All right. Never mind.

Once we secure the funding,

the first thing we will do is have a company offsite.

Yes!

We will take a photo of the entire team there.

-Done, sir. -Shall we begin?

-Yes, sir. -Absolutely.

Who are we?

We are a student-first organization.

We solve the students' problems first…

-The correct answer is-- -Sodium nitroprusside.

…then the teachers'.

And if we still have any energy left after that,

we focus on ourselves.

Abhishek sir, students are reporting that the app isn't working properly.

Sir, we're trying to manage,

but our servers are outdated.

The number of students affected should be very small, barely one percent.

-One percent, sir. -That's not many.

-Only one percent? -Yes.

Do you know what one percent of Physics Wallah means?

Fifty thousand students.

If those 50,000 students walk into this building just to say hello,

the ground beneath us will shake.

-Fix it, please. Okay? -Yes, sir.

Achievements.

We have completely nailed that department, sir.

This section alone deserves two full pages.

Yes, sir. Let's begin with revenue.

Revenue is not an achievement, Sanyam.

A real achievement is changing the life of someone in need.

That's correct, sir.

-Exactly. -Next.

Sir, as this growth trajectory shows,

within just two years we'll see a net increase of

almost 30 percent users.

Why do you keep calling them users, Abhishek sir?

Effective immediately, no one will address or describe our students as users.

Because what is Physics Wallah?

It's nothing but a bond between a student and a teacher.

Everything else came later.

-Okay? -Okay, sir!

Our purpose.

Sir, affordability.

Sir, one minute.

Sir…

Four more teachers have resigned.

All four are senior faculty.

The reason?

Same as always, sir.

Someone's paying them double.

Can we match it?

For how long, sir?

They joined at 500,000. Today, they're earning ten million.

We have other priorities as well.

We need to upgrade our servers, among many other things.

Even if we match their salaries today,

another company will come tomorrow and offer them more.

And frankly, I don't think they deserve it.

No, Prateek bhai, you're wrong here.

Teachers deserve it.

There's nothing wrong with valuing their own worth.

The app, the servers,

and everything else can wait. But the teachers cannot.

Sir, what's so special about what they do? They're just teaching.

Do you both really believe that?

Yes. I mean, he's not entirely wrong.

I mean…

One moment.

Imagine this is a stone,

this is a tree,

and this is an animal.

What separates the three?

A stone has no life.

A tree and an animal do. They are living.

And between the tree and the animal?

Emotion.

An animal has emotions.

And between animals and humans?

Intelligence.

Prateek bhai has a puppy named Manny.

Within seconds, Manny knows when Prateek bhai is in a bad mood

and starts licking his face.

Am I right, Prateek bhai?

So tell me, is Manny not intelligent?

Yes. Just not as intelligent as me.

And what do we do with our intelligence?

We chase money, sir.

Correct.

Money.

And what is money?

Just grease on the hands.

It's currency, sir.

Concept.

Money is a concept.

So making a concept and following it

is what makes humans different from others.

Money, freedom, the laws of motion, what are these

if not just concepts?

Who makes the world understand these concepts?

A teacher.

But it's quite strange.

Every year, I conduct a survey in my first class.

Kids either want to be an engineer,

a doctor,

an entrepreneur, or a musician.

But no one wants to be a teacher.

Why is that?

Yes, you do get a little respect,

especially on Teachers' Day.

A child comes up and hands over a greeting card.

Some children touch your feet.

Someone recites a doha by Kabir.

If the teacher and God stand before me Whose feet should I touch first?

I bow to the teacher For it's the teacher who showed me God

But what about the pay?

There's no growth at all.

Teaching was never an attractive career.

In fact, in our days, was there not a saying that

those who themselves cannot do anything become teachers?

When in fact, that's far from true.

Here at PW, we are not only giving a platform to children

but also to teachers.

And do we not all believe

and scream at the top of our lungs that

if there's a solution to all the problems of the world,

-it is education? -Education.

So how can you educate the whole world without educators?

Why is it that

in the field of teaching,

there's no rockstar teacher like Sachin Tendulkar or Virat Kohli?

Why doesn't any teacher have a crazy fan following?

This will not happen

until we ourselves start believing…

that great teachers

are essential to every country.

Keep in mind, a country's foundation is built by teachers.

Only teachers build the nation.

Okay, sir.

I'll talk to them.

Hello?

Yes.

Where did you get my number?

Okay.

Yes, Alakh sir does podcasts,

but we select the kids ourselves.

Send me your profile. I'll take a look.

You already sent it?

What's your name?

Aditya!

Aditya!

Stop!

POWAI, MUMBAI

Come on!

Munna, come on, play the song already.

-The stuff's ready, bro! -Yes, come on!

Hello, children!

My people, my crew, my homies Powai is pulling up

Welcome to the city slum Feel the real Mumbai

Straight from the city slum

-Hand it over. -A warm welcome

Listen up!

Aditya, wake up! Don't you have an exam today?

Mom, the public loo's gonna be crowded. I'll go later.

I keep wondering why I was born here in the first place

Trapped in these winding alleys I turned into Abhimanyu in this maze

A battle of dreams in my chest Life under curfew

Why should I stand in line too? Why should I live on lies too?

Lost in my own delulu…

MUNICIPAL CORPORATION RECOGNIZED PERMANENT UNAIDED SCHOOL

High inside the illusion of my delulu

You too, come get high in the city slum Stay delulu

Lost in my own delulu…

You've got the brains to cheat.

Go on, show it.

Show it to everyone.

Lost in my own delulu

High inside the illusion of my delulu

Hey, look!

Come here and see it for yourself My truth…

-Hey, Aditya! -Yes, brother?

Hey, he has called for me.

No one treats our people like a republic

They don't give a damn About the pain of our public

City slum, Slumdog film A chillum in hand, along with chai…

-Yes, brother? -I need to send someone for this delivery.

I can't find Aalam anywhere.

Will you go instead?

Brother,

it's 8 p.m.,

and my shift is over anyway.

Also, I have school tomorrow.

What good is school going to do?

I'll pay you an extra 200.

Cool?

Welcome to the city slum

There are millions of sorrows here

Yet we stay delulu

My people, my crew, my homies Powai is pulling up

Welcome to the city slum Feel the real Mumbai

My people, my crew, my homies Powai is pulling up

Welcome to the city slum Feel the real Mumbai

Lost in my own delulu

High inside the illusion of my delulu

You too, come get high in the city slum Stay delulu

-What's wrong? -I really need to take a dump.

Better hurry.

If you crap your pants,

they'll call you a walking toilet instead of a junkie!

You too, come get high in the city slum Stay delulu

My people, my crew, my homies Powai is pulling up

Welcome to the city slum Feel the real Mumbai

My people, my crew, my homies Powai is pulling up

Welcome to the city slum Feel the real Mumbai

-High inside the illusion of my delulu -They don't wish to talk to anyone

Aditya!

Come here.

Yes, brother?

Were you in the office?

Yes, brother.

Why? Did you have some work there?

I…

really needed to take a dump,

so I used the office toilet.

Know your place.

Got it?

Why did you hit me, brother?

I really needed to go, so I used it.

If it bothers you so much, why don't you fix the workers' toilet?

You want me to fix the toilet, you vermin?

You want to tell me what to do?

-You junkie! -Brother, don't hit me!

-Brother… -Hit him!

You want me to fix the workers' toilet?

As if I have nothing better to do.

-Brother! -Hit him!

-You… -Munna! Wahid!

Brother, stop!

-You want me to do what? -Brother! No!

Hit him!

-Please don't hit me! -Hit him.

So, children, that wraps up today's topic, escape velocity.

I hope you understood it well.

If you have any doubts,

go to the doubt section and post them there.

I'll definitely answer them.

I'll see you in the next class.

Until then, keep studying and working hard.

Sir.

It went well, Sumit sir.

The kids will take time to warm up to you,

but it was a solid start.

Thank you so much for…

taking responsibility for this batch

in addition to your ongoing batches.

There's no need to thank me, sir.

I know many teachers have resigned,

so there's bound to be some chaos.

But we won't let the kids suffer.

It means a lot that you think that way.

-Thank you. -Sir.

I'm handling almost double my usual load,

so if you could look into my salary…

Prateek bhai will speak to you.

Okay, sir.

I'll see you.

Wait.

It's nothing. He might just be in a bad mood.

Go see him tomorrow and apologize.

We need the job.

You still want me to go back there?

Where else would you go? Tell me.

You think I don't get a mouthful too?

We all have the same fate, Adi.

Brother, no!

Even your father went through it.

Why did he hit me?

He used to get beaten, then get high, and take it out on me.

You'll have to get used to it too.

People like us don't amount to anything.

This neighborhood is a swamp.

It pulls everyone in its own way.

Addiction dragged your father under.

Now we'll see what fate has lined up for us.

Play the song. The stuff's ready, bro!

Morning, ten o'clock works?

I'll be there. Keep your voice down!

Am I not speaking to you with respect?

-Brother! No! -You junkie trash!

I let you forget your place!

-Beat the shit out of him! -This neighborhood is a swamp.

What are you saying, man?

Brother, are you there?

Even your father went through it.

He used to get beaten,

then get high, and take it out on me.

Addiction finished your father.

Now this poverty is going to finish us.

You'll have to get used to it too.

-Know your place. -People like us don't amount to anything.

I let you forget your place!

Adi!

Hey, Adi!

Adi, open the door.

Aditya!

Aditya!

Adi--

What happened to you?

Nothing.

-Are you okay? -Yeah, I'm fine.

Look at yourself.

-What's going on? -Nothing, Mom.

It's been a week since you went to school or the factory.

This can't continue.

You don't understand, Mom.

I don't feel well.

Hey!

You don't work in an office…

where you can call in sick.

Don't I show up every day?

Sitting at home isn't an option!

Are you listening?

If you want to earn your meals,

sometimes you'll have to take the hits too.

Fine.

Then I'll find another job.

I will.

HEARTY CONGRATULATIONS

Sahil, my dear,

what you've done by getting into IIT

is beyond what almost any child from any household can achieve.

His father drives a rickshaw.

He'll drive a BMW.

What?

A BMW bought with his own hard-earned money.

Applause!

Elect us again,

and I promise this.

Every child from every home will go to IIT.

Every single child will.

Won't they?

Bro, take this too.

Bro…

Sahil bro.

Congrats, man.

You cracked IIT.

I heard the exams are brutal

and the seats are few.

Yeah, bro.

But you only need one, right?

That's true.

Why do you ask?

Thinking of taking the exam?

Come on, bro. How could I?

I'm from the Powai slums.

You probably need coaching, right?

That'll cost a bomb.

Like 200,000 maybe.

We're barely scraping by as it is.

And that corporator, Patil sahab,

helped you, right?

Balls, he helped me!

The second I cleared IIT, he latched on to claim credit.

He just lives in my building.

Also, I didn't join any coaching institute.

Then how?

Son, my circumstances were bad too.

But dream big.

Dreams only come true if you dare to see them.

To change your destiny, all you need is a pen and a notebook.

There's one more thing

you cannot buy in any store,

no matter how rich or poor you are.

That is hard work.

Hard work alone can change your circumstances.

Let's get started with class, okay?

Yo, bro. Come on, pull up

Let's tear it up

This life is hustle every day

Not pleasure, it's chaos, okay!

Distractions will always be around.

A hundred dreams to chase

New problems pile up Wrong roads, still we pace!

Keep at it, do your work…

But the choice is yours.

Do you bow to them,

or make them bow to you?

Adi.

What's happening to you? Let's go to the hospital.

No, Mom. I'm fine.

My body's clearing out all the trash, that's all.

Make your own path Don't blame the world, my mate

How will you face your battles

-When addiction seals your fate? -Sir.

You're quitting already?

If you don't know the answers, just write a story.

No, sir. I'm done.

Done?

So, where are you headed now?

The factory?

No, sir. To build my life.

So go. Ask yourself the truth

This war is yours Burn through your own pursuit

The world gives pain, turn it into cure Find your own peace too

Grow wings, take flight, reach the sky It's just you and you

Just you and you

Ask yourself again

The destination you seek You must find it within

-Higher velocity makes no difference. -Bro, move forward now

Show the world your hunger and how!

-Wait up, bro. Where are you headed? -What's up?

We just scored fresh stuff. A-grade.

This will send you straight to the moon.

-You go ahead. -What?

This life is hustle every day

Not pleasure, it's chaos, okay!

Every day's a different race A hundred dreams to chase

New problems pile up Wrong roads, still we pace

Keep at it, do your work, bro

You can have it all If you stay locked, though

This life is hustle every day

Every day's a different race

For the first time in this school's history,

someone scored this high.

And without cheating.

Here's a pen for you, son.

Write your destiny with it.

The goal is near now Since your tricks are few

-Be a diamond in the coals, bro -Thank you, sir.

-When you shine, they'll value you -Thank you.

We write our fate…

Today, we're learning the most popular law in the world.

Newton's third law.

Every action has an equal and--

-Let's go. -What's wrong?

-Come on. Move. -Come on!

-But what happened? -Just keep walking.

-Keep moving. -Where to?

We know we screwed up that day. We shouldn't have left you and run.

We're sorry, buddy.

Why blow up our friendship over it?

We've got to live in this neighborhood our whole lives.

Bro, drop it.

Are you pissed?

Come on, let's go smash his face.

-Come on, Munna! -Yeah. Let's go.

No, man. I don't want that!

Are you out of your mind?

I should be thanking him.

If he hadn't beaten me up, I'd still be sleeping through life.

And it's good you both took off.

At least I learned I'm on my own.

-Listen to him now. -Come on, bro.

Still hung up on that?

Pull it out already, man.

Let's take a hit each.

Take the edge off.

That's more like it.

Hey, look who's here.

Check this.

We scored some killer stuff from Santosh this time.

You'll be seeing stars in daylight, man.

Stars.

No, man.

I'm done with that.

Count me out.

And you two need to

quit this junkie crap too. You hear me?

And do what instead?

Yeah. Do what, my love?

Study.

Now's the time.

-Study? -He tops one exam,

-and suddenly he's preaching. -Study?

And don't forget, you're the one who scored the stuff from Santosh.

-Yeah! -You got us hooked.

Yeah.

"Study." Buzz off!

-We're doing this. Yes. -Prep it.

Hand it over.

Birds of a feather flock together.

I got it.

That's more like it, my love.

-He's back! -Here you go, sweetheart.

Go for it.

-Like old times. -This stuff is fire.

-Bro, listen. -Yes?

Since I got you guys hooked,

I should be the one to get you off it.

What the hell?

-You… -Are you insane?

What did you do?

Leave him.

Hurry up.

Here.

You jerk!

Bro, listen.

-Let's hit up Santosh for more! -Give it to me.

Come on!

Let's go!

Santosh.

You got the stuff?

What stuff? I don't deal in that.

Come on, give me some. It's for Wahid.

If your kid needs it, I can hook you up.

When the sleeping world wakes

Some magic takes place

It transforms itself in its own way

Plant trees of courage bright

Reap fruits of comfort right

Sow your own shade, your own way

Step forward. Got it all Hear it loud and clear

I'm change in the matrix I'm outta here

Ain't no safe bets Live life on the edge

For when I say what I say I take no guess

I'll say it with my chest

I'm a miracle, political, lyrical A little spiritual, a little obsessed

So don't rest on my neck While facing your end

You should head home, sir.

It's already late.

You have not gone home either.

I was just going through some of the course materials.

I'll leave after that.

Did you read the email?

Sumit sir resigned as well.

We gave him a raise just to retain him.

And now again?

I told you so, sir.

Word is he got an offer of 30 million.

If we keep draining our funds like this,

I mean,

how will we improve the platform?

It gets harder every day.

Managing everything. With so many students,

the traffic could crash the app at any point.

But you said they were good teachers. That we should hold on to them and manage.

Now it feels like they're the ones trying to stop us.

They're still competent as teachers,

but the person behind the role has gone astray.

Alakh sir, we have exhausted all options.

We need to find new teachers.

Hey, Adi. Your clothes are ready. Take them with you.

Uncle, not now. I have an exam tomorrow.

-I will come after that. -All right.

-Do well. -Oh, thank you.

Let me pass, Santosh bro.

Let it go. What's done is done.

I need to leave.

Happy now?

You've hit enough.

Has your anger cooled? Now let me go.

I have an exam tomorrow.

I'll roll the paper for you, you punk.

Brother, please let me go.

Don't hit me.

Bro, my exam--

Hit him!

I have an exam tomorrow!

Brother…

-You jerk! -No, bro!

-You had the nerve to rat me out? -Bro…

Hello?

Wahid!

Hey, Adi!

Adi!

-Adi! -Get up!

Pick him up.

Hey! Stop!

-Going inside isn't allowed. -Easy, Wahid.

How can it not be allowed?

-Hey, stop! -Go!

-Vehicles are not allowed. -Sorry…

We're leaving.

-My admit card… -Sorry.

-Let's go. -Hey!

-Hand me my admit card. -Here.

May I come in, sir?

Sir.

Go to your seat.

-I said go to your seat! -Yes, sir.

You earn money from a job. The job comes from IIT.

IIT comes from studying. And who's going to make you study?

Raman sir. So let's get started.

He has a strong personality.

His ratings and results are both good.

We should hire him immediately.

Have you spoken to him? When can he start?

He can start tomorrow, sir.

That's great. Finalize him. What are his salary expectations?

The current market rate.

He's also asking for 20 million.

In the past three years, he's switched six jobs.

He changes institutes more often than his clothes.

Also, he hasn't completed the course anywhere.

Block his number immediately.

-Next. -Next.

Kings don't work for anyone.

Kings create jobs.

Next!

Students, I've shared my number,

but please message me only if you have questions.

I don't know about the results,

but we'll definitely get a lot of views, sir.

-"Control." -Sir.

Next.

SIR, WHEN WILL SUMIT SIR BE BACK? PHYSICS FEELS REALLY HARD WITHOUT HIM.

Until then, keep studying

-and keep crushing it! -Sir, how is he?

Good job, Sanyam.

-He's very nice. -Nice?

Let's finalize him.

-Yes. -Yes? That's great.

How much is he asking for? Tell me.

Seventy million. Non-negotiable.

Done. Don't negotiate.

Cancel him.

And when will this be possible?

When you join our new course.

Where we'll teach techniques like this.

So what are you waiting for?

We're offering a 50 percent discount.

Hurry up!

Now, kids,

back to the question.

He's the one, sir.

He's sold more courses than anyone.

He's not only good at teaching

but also at talking to parents

and convincing them to buy new courses.

I've heard that

before he became a teacher, he was a salesman.

We're not interested in selling courses to kids, Sanyam.

We need to offer real value so they choose to buy on their own.

We don't need influencers like him. We need good teachers.

Let's take a short break.

Raju bhai, one tea.

Make it two.

The thing is,

we know all that, sir.

But we're backed into a corner.

We need to hire someone sooner rather than later.

What the hell is going on in edtech, Prateek bhai?

Education used to have institutes,

schools, and gurukuls.

Now it's just companies.

Student growth takes a backseat

to revenue growth.

Every player is trying to outdo the other.

Someone uses fear to sell courses to kids and parents.

Someone else keeps chasing funding to boost valuation.

And some just buy and sell teachers like cattle.

Who knows where this circus will end?

The world will do what it wants, sir.

But right now, we have to hire teachers quickly.

Students are already asking where the teachers are.

Take a look.

RHEA: SIR, WHERE'S SUMIT SIR?

ANKIT: SIR, CAN YOU TELL US WHY EVERYONE SUDDENLY DISAPPEARED?

DEEPAK: DID THEY ALL RESIGN?

Yes, Shivangi?

The podcast setup is ready,

and the ex-student we connected with is also here.

Please come so we can start.

Yes, I'll be there.

Have a seat.

Shall we begin?

Is it out yet?

No, Auntie. It's still loading.

Wahid bro, say something.

-Buddy, tell me. -Buddy.

You did it!

What?!

-You did it, buddy. -Show me.

Look!

I did it!

Aditya.

Mom!

Bro, you did it.

Show me.

It is yours.

Look. It says it right here.

Hell yeah!

I'm going to distribute sweets in the neighborhood.

-Come on. -We'll come with you.

-Mom. -Yes?

Stop. Don't go anywhere.

What happened?

It's not necessary.

I'm not going anywhere.

-Hey! -Buddy, you cleared the exam. What now?

No, Wahid.

With this rank, I'll not get a seat in Mumbai.

What is he saying?

The fees are around 200,000 a year.

Do you even know how much that is?

Even if I get a scholarship for tuition,

where will I get money for food and the hostel?

Forget it.

At least try.

We will find a way.

Lord Ganpati brought you this far, Aditya.

He'll show you the way ahead too.

No, Mom. Drop it. I don't want to go.

And I cannot leave you here alone.

Who will take care of you?

Hey, smartass!

I take care of you, not the other way around.

You will go.

The government has to have something for people like us.

And if nothing works out?

You're not going there for sightseeing.

You earned this opportunity.

You have to go. Just go see them and come back.

Okay?

Aditya!

Please keep all your documents ready.

Next.

Listen, son.

Scholarships are approved only after the first semester.

You can apply for it. Okay?

But first you must take admission.

Madam, if you allow me to deposit part of the fee,

I can pay the rest over time.

That's not possible, Aditya.

And your documents are incomplete too.

Next.

By the way, what was your rank?

6027.

Where are you from?

Mumbai.

Have you applied for a loan?

Aditya, do this.

Stay here for a while. Okay?

We'll see what we can do.

Take this.

Next.

-Hello. -Hello. Buddy, what did they say?

Aditya, will it work?

It looks tough.

They said even if I get the scholarship, it starts next semester.

We still need about 200,000.

Then we apply for a loan.

They want a guarantor…

with a monthly income of at least 20,000.

Where do we find someone like that?

No, buddy. Don't give up now.

We're here with you. We'll figure something out. Don't worry.

We always do. Stay there.

Son, hurry up.

Table four is waiting.

Coming, sir. Two minutes.

I cannot do this.

You're underage. If anyone finds out,

I lose my canteen contract.

Do you understand?

Sir, no one will find out.

Please, sir. Let me work part-time.

It'll help me manage my living expenses. Please, sir.

Son, I cannot. I'm sorry.

-Sir, please-- -I said leave.

Please leave. Sorry!

Leave. I have too much work.

These accounts have been killing me all morning.

Sir, please.

Sir, you're a faculty member here.

-Please help me. Please. -It's okay.

It's okay.

Did your loan get approved?

No, sir. Not yet.

They said I need money to get the loan.

Your father is not here?

No, sir.

I have no father.

Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry to hear that.

Sir, please help me.

Otherwise, my only option is to go back home, sir.

Go back?

No, no. You don't have to.

-We'll figure something out. -Sir…

-Sir, just give me a minute. -Sure. Go ahead.

-I'll take this call. -Yeah, take it.

-Hello? Yes, buddy. -Hello, buddy!

-Tell me. -Your IIT is sorted.

We have arranged the money.

What?

How?

SMALL LANE, BIG DREAMS #FROMTHEGULLYTOIIT

Listen, everyone. Our Aditya has been selected for IIT.

Step forward with the donations!

WHERE DREAMS BEAT THE ODDS

Munna.

Auntie?

Twenty-five thousand.

Fifteen.

Even when you add it all up, it still won't go over 50.

You?

Let Aditya know…

I made a mistake.

A boy from our streets is going to IIT.

What could be prouder than that?

This is from me…

150,000 rupees.

Buddy,

you don't have to beg anyone over there.

Just wait. You're going to study with the respect you deserve.

Adi, we were all wrong, and you were right all along.

Respect is earned through education,

and you showed that.

Adi, don't worry now.

Everything here is taken care of.

Yes.

Just focus on your studies.

Aditya, my boy, don't cry.

Don't worry about the fees. Okay?

Listen.

You earned your place here.

I'll talk to the administration tomorrow.

My people, sir.

My gully gang.

From there to IIT.

Sir, I graduated this year.

I got a package of 2.4 million.

I cannot even describe how happy my mother is.

You put my life on track.

Thank you so much, sir.

I'm the one who should be thanking you, Aditya.

You came here today

and shared your story.

We all felt very proud.

You serve as an inspiration to the other kids.

Sir, I have a request.

Go ahead.

You have done so much for me. I want to do something for you.

Sir, I want to teach physics.

When I was in college, I used to teach it.

Yeah, I'm not as good a teacher as you yet,

but I'll improve with time.

If you could give me just one opportunity…

Hello, children!

We're back!

Earlier, we criticized edtech a lot,

but then we realized we're edtech ourselves.

No matter what anyone else does,

the change has to come from us.

Now, if the teacher is here,

he must have brought something special, right?

That's why today marks something big.

We have an amazing surprise for you.

Remember, children,

"Even if they take away one Alakh,

I'll bring a thousand more into the world!"

So come on, let's meet our new teacher.

Our first teacher, who, just like you, was once a student of PW.

No more waiting.

Let's give a warm welcome to Aditya sir!

Welcome, Aditya sir.

Thank you, sir.

Aditya sir is our new faculty member,

who has come from among you.

So go ahead and write your thoughts in the comments.

I'm reading them.

Neha says this is a

really good start.

Of course, it is.

Now, many of you are going to be part of this.

Rajesh says…

Go ahead, type your comments. I'm reading them. What happened?

The comments…

Sir…

What happened?

Sir, the app crashed.

The tech team is on it, sir.

The load was too much for it to handle.

So-- We're trying, sir.

We're trying.

What the hell is going on?

Sir, we're trying to figure it out.

-Please check-- -What perfect timing!

Sir, why are you blaming us? It's not our fault.

Without upgrading the server,

the app was bound to crash with this many live users.

You asked us to put it on hold,

so we did.

Mishra, what happened?

How did the server crash?

Sort it out. Hurry up.

Sir, how is this my fault?

Before one problem is fixed, another one pops up.

Alakh sir himself said the app and server upgrades could go on hold.

Well, this was bound to happen.

You're right. Without funding, this was inevitable.

But sure, let's just not upgrade our servers.

Subtitle translation by: Vishal Singh

Have you cast a magic spell or something? How do you keep winning every time bro?

First keep your word. Give the exam. Then I'll tell you the secret.

Dude I'm not interested in giving any exams, okay? I really don't care.

What do you like about that place?

Anyway, Bablu Sir teaches us at school, right?

So do we learn by doing it or reading it?

By doing it.

Bablu sir teaches Physics.

-Is it working? No? -No, Sir.

He makes you fall in love with Physics. So I fell in love.

The universe runs by the laws of physics. And for me, physics has become my

whole universe.

And my friend, rumor has it, that physics came first and then the rest of

the universe came into existence. Did you know…

Relax bro, you convinced me. I've given the paper. The results will

be out. But first you need to tell me something. How do you win all the time?

Tell me Alakh. How the hell do you do it?

It's very simple. You are making the plane too wide.

Hmm.

I make it narrow and long. Less air resistance. Sometimes it goes up,

sometimes down.

I aim it at 45 degrees. Projectile motion, maximum range. It's not magic,

it's Physics.

They teach you all these things in Physics?

Bro I am stuck on the ground with my plane. I'm taking the classes.

The results are out on the notice board. Come on, come on, come on.

-Let's go. -Come on, lets go!

-Bro. -Hmm?

Something's wrong.

That's right. You have really topped the exam. Roll number 6283, right?

Yeah.

Congratulations! Our top students always rank in the first 500 at the

all-India level.

Okay, Ma'am. All that is fine. But who will teach us Physics?

Our best teacher over here, Mr. Nitin! You'll get the best

batch we have! You'll get the highest scholarship! 90% off and tax free to

boot!

Only 20,000.

-Uh… -Should I block it for you?

I…

Uh, yeah yeah. Do it, please block it. We'll be back in a day or two.

We'll have to discuss it with the family. We'll leave now, okay? We'll

be back soon.

Excuse me, 6283! What did you say your name was?

-Alakh Pandey. -Come on.

Come on, Rishabh. Don't worry.

Let's see what he does.

He should defend. I'm sure he doesn't want to lose his wicket. The bowler

is on his his hat-trick brimming with confidence.

And it's a sixer.

Okay, now just take it easy Rishabh.

That was an amazing shot! Unbelievable!

And he's just a six away from his century now. Rishabh Negi!

Will he be able to make his century?

Rishabh has completely missed the ball. I guess he is getting a bit nervous

in his nineties.

But what's going on? Looks like he has got some sort of an injury.

And he is struggling a bit.

-His team players are checking on -Someone go and check on him.

Him right now.

Oh! That looks like trouble.

He's batting at 94, and it looks like he has pulled a hamstring.

I'm sure he is disappointed. But he has played a brilliant innings. What a

knock!

Every ball you want to hit a six. I told you to take it easy. Now

you've got a cramp.

Sorry sir, I was trying to defend the ball. I'll take a shower and I'll be

fine.

Yeah, go on, hurry up! Come on, guys!

Good job. Keep going, Keep going!

NEW LIONS CRICKET ACADEMY

And another wicket!

Sir.

There's still some time left. Check your paper.

Sir. Sir, sorry, Sir. Sir, please, Sir, sorry. Sir, did the selectors

say anything?

They were impressed by your game. But I think you lack dedication.

You know right, How many players are fighting for the spot? Not just

-batting, you need to field well too. -Are you saying that they rejected me?

Go. Write more papers.

It was the mid-term, sir. I couldn't skip it.

So then just stop playing cricket.

You've got selected. I convinced them.

You're welcome, you're welcome.

Look, I won't be able to do this again. You'll get great exposure in this

academy. The Under-17 team selectors keep an eye out for talent. You need

to take this seriously.

And I also think you need to come clean to your father. Good luck.

Our Purpose To increase India's cut-off marks Bring affordable education for all

Nice. Very nice. We'll get back to you.

-Thank you, Sir. -Thank you.

It went well, Prateek

-Hmm. -So when are we flying back?

Hmm! Why do you want to go back?

Well, we're done here, right? He said he will get back.

This is just the beginning, Alakh.

-What? -Yeah.

He liked our pitch. That's why he said, he will get back.

What's wrong with you. Stop laughing. Come on.

Listen-

Alakh Pandey. The Physics Wallah.

Frankly speaking, it really doesn't sound like a brand to me.

Voila! The name you've chosen, is raw, and real, and quite relatable!

You know, it sounds like the "Laundry guy".

The milk man.

-The fruit guy -The scrap guy

-The tea guy -The matcha guy.

Really nice. I'm like- I'm in love with you guys. But you know what?

We're gonna open three more sister companies. Bio Wallah, Chemistry Wallah,

Maths Wallah.

We are already teaching all these subjects. Have you not seen

our app yet?

You have an app as well? Come here. You have to come and hug me. Come to me.

Come here, come here. Seriously.

Don't these people do their home-work?

Come here.

Don't even think about it. That's the way they are.

I mean they have invited us, and they haven't even done their homework.

You guys have really set up a good business.

But, when I invest in a business, I go all the way my friend.

We work exactly the same way.

You're not getting the point, son. I will give you the funding, but

the equity; 51%.

Sir! Prateek.

No problem, Sir. Thank you. No, I would like the file back.

EdTech is so 2015.

I am more into the FinTech side of things. You know, like, Bitcoin,

crypto, that kind of stuff. Oh wait. Eureka moment. FinTech

meets EdTech. You guys invest a million. 50-50 profit share.

Yeah? Alright? No?

Absolutely. Thank you.

Hmm. So your primary hypothesis is, that if you guys manage to garner

value for PW through funding,

your teachers will become loyal to you and at the same time you will be

able to hire and retain excellent employees.

Yes.

And during this time you will be able to focus on growth and expansion.

Exactly.

-Did you guys notice something? -Hmm?

What?

Uh, these chips that I offered you are from Sweden. St. Edmund. The most

valued chip company in the world.

But what did you guys pick? The great Indian Masala chips.

People are not loyal to value, guys. They are loyal to brands.

You guys make Physics Wallah a brand, and the teachers will become loyal.

Hmm.

You know, brands sell dreams. And every employee who joins a startup dreams

that his company becomes a unicorn one day.

Correct

I will do that for you. I am offering you a 100 million dollars. At a 1 billion

valuation.

What's wrong? Is it not enough?

Alakh sir, how much is one billion dollars in Indian rupees exactly?

You are the finance guy. You are asking me?

For calculation sake, let's round off the value of the dollar at about eighty

It's not the value of "G" that you are going to round off. It's a matter of

rupees.

So we take a 1000 million and multiply it

millions. 83,13 billion rupees?

By 83.13 we get.

Yeah.

Yes! Yes!

We did it!

Hello, children. Today we will be studying the world's most popular law.

Newton's Third Law.

Hello. What? I can't hear you.

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction

Hello. What the hell? Are you stupid or something?

Listen, dad.

-Yeah. -Dad!

Yeah!

I'm trying to make a video. Can you keep it down?

Making a video? You haven't gone to work today?

Did you not speak to mom today?

About what?

I have quit my job. I will be teaching from home now. Could you

please go to the other room and talk?

Hello, children! Today we will be learning action force and reaction

force.

What's going on here? What's this? Have you lost your mind? Who teaches

like this?

You quit such a good job and you are doing all this bullshit here?

It was not a good job. That's why

Tell me what was wrong with your job?

I had to quit.

What was so bad?

They were charging a lot of money from the students. I- My conscience

didn't allow.

But every coaching class charges a fee! Those who can afford it, pay for it.

And people like us? People who are poor? What about them? Shouldn't they also

get a chance? That's why I decided I will be teaching on YouTube.

So you are going to do all this nonsense now? Have you ever seen a

beggar giving out charity to others? Ridiculous!

What is this? What have you put here? What is this? Why have you put

this mobile here?

Get rid of it, right away! I want you to go to your boss right now

and apologise to him and beg him to give your job back, and tell him you

A college dropout sitting at home and doing nothing. First become something,

-then go on and teach others. -Dad, I was teac… Hey! Dad!

Now stop staring at me. And clean this mess. Now good luck with your

teaching, sir.

Bloody idiot. His students are bigger idiots. Unbelievable!

I have a moron for a son.

Listen, dad, please. This is the first time and the last time I am

requesting you. You want to make fun of me, you want to taunt me,

please go ahead. But I am telling you,

What children? Who watches your videos?

Please don't say anything about my Students watch my videos.

Just two people watch. Your mom and sister, that's it.

Children.

And, by chance, if anyone sees it, they'll end up just like you.

Absolutely useless! Failures!

He thinks he is some big time teacher.

Oh yeah?

Like you have achieved some great success, Mr. Pandey?

What?

The seepage that's making the paint pop out of the walls. You know what

these patches represent? They are certificates of your success.

They look like Modern Art so maybe that's why we don't get it. There are only two

things famous about Allahabad. One is the Sangam and the other is your amazing

success story.

Every month when Kripal, the debter, comes to collect interest from you

doesn't come for the interest money, he probably comes to take a dip in

the Sangam and take your blessings. And sings praises of your success stories

You as a person are such a rarity

in front of the whole neighbourhood. save two rupees so you could buy one

that you choose to walk 3 kilometres to

kilo of sugar. No wonder we are such

sweet people!

My mother teaches in a school for just 800 rupees a month. We

survive because of my sister's salary. These extravagant circumstances we

have are only because of your success stories. What a unique great

man you are.

Look, whatever we have is enough. If you had to sleep on the streets

and eat out of a garbage can, then you would understand the value of

what we have, and respect me as a provider.

Don't glamorize poverty by seasoning it with the salt of your emotions. Take off

the blindfold of your ego and try to see, where we were and where we have

ended up.

"Where we have ended up?" You are talking about that house? Now let me tell

you one thing clearly. That house that I sold belonged to me. It

You really want to play "yours and mine"? Huh? Alright.

Every penny that you've spent on me ever since I was born till today,

underwear, T-shirt, soap, oil, toothbrush, toothpaste. Make a list

of everything. I am going to pay you back with interest. And I will get it

That Satish Pandey and Alakh Pandey printed in the papers.

Are not related to each other. You arre

not my father, and I am not your son!

Yeah yeah, I am nobody, I am nothing. You just magically dropped out

-of the sky. -Yes, I dropped from the sky!

What the hell is wrong with you? Enough!

Stop creating a scene, Alakh? Everybody can hear you out

I don't want to live in this house. He is driving me crazy.

-On the street. -I am driving you mad?

People are right. A jobless son in the house is useless. I don't want to be

a burden anymore.

Have you gone crazy? This house is mine. I pay the rent. You know that.

Okay, no problem. Live here, be happy. We are leaving.

What are you doing? It's our festival today. Both of you

are ruining it.

Stop fighting like children. Enough now.

Dad, now you don't get started please.

-You stop it. You sit here. You sit down. -Tell him, not me. I don't know what

-is going on in this damn house. -Rest now. What is wrong with you.

Just calm down. SIt down. Why are you fighting with him?

I stuck my mobile here. I was teaching the students. Look what

he's done.

Sit down. Relax.

I just don't get this boy.

Just relax. Calm down.

I don't know what is going on in his head. He is acting very

weird there days. He had such a job and now-

Now he's quit that job, and doing this nonsense? He is saying these-these

flakes are because of me. I am responsible?

Okay, okay. Yeah yeah. You have some water first. Calm down, just let it

go.

-Why don't you understand? He is just -He has no respect for me at all.

-Trying to do something different. -I've done nothing for him?

Enough.

Please.

MAALKIN

Let's do the planning, Prateek. We can only do the execution once the funds

-come in. -Of course.

I hope Physics Wallah will now be able to reach many more students.

Sir! Sir, Sir. Sir. I heard we are going to become a unicorn? Is it true?

Oh man, this is great!

Listen, till we have the term sheet in hand, this news is limited to

the core team. Nobody else can find out about this.

Okay, Sir.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Yeah, Aditi. What happened?

What, man?

No. No, just calm down. I can't understand what you are saying. What?

I'm on my way. I am coming.

What happened?

Prateek, my father. I have to go home and see him.

Dad, if I join the academy, then I will play under-19 and then for

India. Dad, if I join the academy, then I will play under-19 and then for

India. Dad, if I join the academy, then I will play under-19 -

BHARAT BHAVAN SR SEC SCHOOL QUARTERLY ASSESSMENT REPORT FIRST QUARTER CLASS

11TH

Sit down.

How are your studies going on?

It's all going well, Dad. Things were a little rocky for a while. But I'm

catching up, now.

You have been playing cricket since you were little.

Have I ever stopped you from playing? Did I put any conditions? When to

play, who are you going to play with, why do you need a certain bat? Have I

stopped you from anything?

You know why? Because I never wanted your childhood taken away from you.

But now enough is enough… These next two years will set the tone for the

rest of your life.

That's why you need to stop playing cricket right away.

But, dad-

Mom-

You can play once in a while. But not every day. Hmm?

The doctor said that there's nothing to worry about. His ECG and other

reports are normal. He dad needs to cut down on sugar intake and exercise

regularly.

Well if it was nothing, why did you call me, Aditi. I had to travel all

night to get here.

He was in a lot of pain, Alakh. Both of us panicked. Thank God

it was just acidity. If you were here, you would have panicked too.

You know right? How busy I am nowadays, huh? Don't call me for trivial things.

He had acidity and you called me.

He's our father. I think you have forgotten that, Alakh.

Yeah I send money for him, Aditi? And we have enough of that now. What do

you expect me to do, sit at home?

Stop saying such things.

I'm sorry. I said it because I was angry.

-But what's the point now? You've -Sorry. Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.

Already done the damage.

Smile now. Smi-

Who smiles like that? come on now.

Oh, man. Uncle is getting on my nerves!

Who's that?

He keeps calling. He keeps stressing me out. It's Moni's wedding. He keeps

saying "Please bring Alakh this time".

What? So now I am family?

"Please bring Alakh this time". I am not going there.

I know that. And we are not going as well. Who's going to look after dad?

Now, why are you cancelling your plans now?

It's beena while since mom has met her brother.

What about dad?

-I'll stay for four days. -Four days?

Yeah. I'll fix his acidity and then leave.

Hmm. No, enough.

Listen, Alakh. Someone met your dad the other day. He recognized him as the

father of Physics Wallah.

Don't you remember we met him at the pharmacy? He said that his son has

taken the course but doesn't study. What was his name? His son's name?

Rishabh Negi.

Yes, Rishabh Negi. Look into it.

I'll look into it

Good morning. Here's the weather for today. The city is experiencing

a heat wave. But the good news is, that the humidity is not that high. Today's

maximum temperature is expected to go as high as 45 degrees celsius,

and the lowest temperature is expected to be around 28 degrees celsius.

People have been advised to stay indoors as much as possible,

because these kind of temperatures can be fatal. It is better to not venture

out, and stay hyderated.

Hello. Great timing on the phone call, man.

-What, Sir? -No, nothing.

Sir, did you hear the news?

Hey, Prateek, Sanyam, how did this news get leaked?

Sir, I'm not sure how it got out, but we know for sure we didn't leak it.

Look, Alakh, the investor universe is actually really small. So, it's not

difficult for the media to get a whiff. I don't think there's anything to worry

Exactly, Sir! And if you ask me, if someone has a problem, let them have

about.

A problem. I mean this investment news has done a ton of good for us. We've hit

the ball right out of the park.

Ok, listen, Shivangi. There's a student who lives right next to my

house. I want you to get his performance report for me.

What was his name?

Sir, after this unicorn news, we're getting a lot of hiring enquiries.

All those people who rejected us earlier are taking a U-turn and

coming back, Sir!

Sir, seventeen teachers have withdrawn their resignations. They are

saying, "don't want an increment, just a stake in the company."

After all, PW is like home.

Okay tell me, did you get the term sheet?

Yes, sir. I just had a chat with Aviral. They'll send it once the formalities are

completed.

Okay. Until then, make sure we don't release any statements from our side,

hmm? And even in the office, keep it on the down-low.

You don't need to worry at all. No one from our team will say a word to anyone.

-No, no. -I won't tell anyone.

Yeah. Shivangi. Yeah, yeah, I saw that. And the vertical is clear. And Rishabh's

report is ok now, right?

Sir, his attendance is good, but…

But what?

Nice batting. You play really well.

I see you are attending online classes regularly. And your cricket practice is

going well too. You play well on both pitches.

You just- You just had to answer the quiz and you wouldn't have got caught.

Look, before you come up with excuses, let me make something clear, I am not

here to school you. I am here to solve your problem.

I'll let you know when I have something concrete to show.

And by when will you have something concrete?

If I get into the academy, then I'll play for Under-17 for sure. And if

everything works out, I will play Under-19 as well. I'll make it in a

couple fo years.

In a couple of years? By then you would've lost your wicket Rishabh.

I'll manage everything somehow.

Do you remember the formula for kinetic energy?

Yes, sir. ½mv².

Let's assume you have some energy. Hmm? It has to be limited?

For now, let's say its a thousand joules.

With that if you push two boats which are five kilos each, what would be their

velocity?

Sir, 5 plus 5. 1000 2 = 2000. Divided by square root of 200. Around 14 ms.

That's amazing! Without pen and paper. Now the same energy on one boat?

That means only the square root of 400. 20 ms.

Now the difference in speed, between the both is 6. So multiply it. And

how much time did you say you will take? One or two years? For now let's

say it's two years. So 2 365 6. How much is it?

What happened? Is the number is too big for you? I think you'll need a pen and

paper, now

See, Rishabh. You remember the formulae. You scored well in the 10th grade.

And your father thinking that you will make a good doctor one day is not wrong.

That's why he put you in the boat that take you to med school.

But you already had a boat of your own. Cricket. So now it's your choice:

You want to sail in one and go fast or slow?

That's why they say you should never keep your feet in two different boats.

You have to choose one.

Sir, I know for sure. I just want to play cricket. But who lets you

choose your own boat? Anyway, I'm doing all this for my dad.

I don't want him to think that I didn't even try hard enough.

Then sit and talk to him. Convince him. You can tell the whole world that

you want to be a cricketer. You can't tell your father?

Sir, talking to your dad is not the easiest thing.

I just want to play cricket. My dad runs a pharmacy in town. His

finances are sorted. So, my cricket doesn't put pressure on him.

I have no clue if I'm ever going to play for India or not. But I have

to keep trying, right?

So present your case. Tell him all this. Talk to him. Don't worry. I'll come with

you to talk to him. Okay? But it's important that you speak. Alright?

Unicorn! Unicorn! Unicorn!

Sir the term sheet is here!

Oh yeah, it's fabulous.

You have become a unicorn even before the company's become a unicorn!

Sir, Aviral has really stolen our hearts. He has told us we don't need to

change the fees. We are a unicorn now, Sir.

Congratulations.

Alakh, their team has suggested that we remove all our free courses from, like,

everywhere.

But those- the students who study for free, what happens to them?

Sir, that's just a perception. We have also done an internal survey. 95% of the

students who are studying for free don't have any problem.

And the 5% who will have a problem, what about them?

So, I suggest, let's review this thoroughly. Once you get back, we will

go over it.

I have something small to finish here. I'll be back soon.

Okay sure!

Okay.

Bye.

Alakh.

Listen, you've packed everything, right?

-Okay Okay. -Yeah, yeah. I put it all in the bag.

Kavita.

Hey, weren't you guys supposed to come tomorrow?

I saw it on the news. PW is now a unicorn now?

No, Aditi, it's just a rumor. Nothing is final yet. Okay, mom.

-Hmm? -Where's dad's prescription?

We bought the medicines on the way back. From Rishabh's father's pharmacy.

His uh…shop is in Shastri Nagar, right? I'm going there to meet him tomorrow.

And who told you that?

Nobody. I wanted to meet him.

I meant, who told you that he owns the store?

What do you mean?

What's up, Sir? We're meeting today? You were supposed to come home tomorrow.

Come on, sit. I'll explain. Come on, come on.

Gauri Medical. Why would he open a pharmacy 20 kilometres away from home?

Because the rent is lower, and he's been here since the beginning.

MEDICINES MEDICAL

You must be here regularly. To help your father, right?

Not at all. He doesn't let me.

Why?

He says "you need to study and become a doctor."

Sometimes I help him out on Sundays.

When does he come back home?

In the morning. It's a 247 pharmacy, so…

Your father doesn't own this shop, Rishabh. He only works over here.

Look.

One job after another. He works two jobs a day so that he can make the ends meet.

Where are you going?

My dad has been lying to us.

Didn't you lie to him as well? Don't you go to the academy, to play cricket?

Don't you call your mother. I think she already knows. I think they are

only lying to you. For your own good.

Maybe because they didn't want you to feel that you are any less.

Have you heard the story of Bali in the Ramayana? When Bali used to go to war,

then half the opponent's strength used to get transfered into Bali.

But the exact opposite happens to all poor people. As soon as someone poor

tries to enter a competition, he feels disadvantaged and out of place, and

hence loses half his strength.

And today whatever you have, school, coaching, cricket, your father

has somehow managed it for you. And he's done it well.

See, I didn't want to tell you all this, but you would have found out the truth

sooner or later. So it's better you know before it's too late.

He thinks that you're still a child. But I believe that you are sensible

guy. You're quite mature.

And I won't suggest you become a doctor just because of your situation.

Look, even I followed my dreams like a madman. How could I never ask you to

do the same?

But, yeah. You believe that there's no risk, right? The risk is there.

That risk is now yours. So the choice will also be yours.

One more thing. In case you decide to chase after your dreams, then do it

with all your heart.

MPC STATE BANK PAY RISHABH NEGI RUPEES FIVE LAKHS ONLY

I want you to have this.

And if you decide to choose responsibility over your dreams, then

please attend classes.

And yes, you need to tell your father the truth, okay? I think he deserves it.

Hmm?

I'll see you in a few days.

Yeah, you mean to say after a month.

Mom, there's a lot going on there. I'll tell you about it, okay?

Alright.

Take care.

God bless you. Dad's at home.

Uh, I'm leaving.

What?

So soon?

Wait. I wanted to talk to you.

Yes, sure.

Uh, no, not here. Let's go for a walk.

I have a flight to catch.

Yeah, but- I won't take too long.

Come.

You seem a little worried since yesterday. Did something happen at work?

No. Nothing out of the ordinary. Something is always up.

You should talk to me. You'll feel better.

I've got this offer. It seems nice.

A lot of our problems will be solved. But then-

It doesn't match with my ideaology.

Yeah, it makes sense. So, what have you decided?

I don't feel like taking it.

But then there are other people in the team. They also have dreams.

We'll see. WHat did you want to talk about?

It's just- I mean, the other day I felt unwell. I got a sudden pain in the chest

so, I panicked.

That day I felt that there is so much to be said between us.

Sometimes, things remain unsaid between a father and a son.

I don't want that to happen to us, Alakh.

Dad, what are you- what are you trying to say? Nothing will

-happen to you. -It will one day or another.

Alakh, now, you have become a big man. And I am a nobody.

Maybe, that's why I never understood what you wanted to achieve. And how

capable you actually are.

I have lost so many times in my life. That I started hating everything.

And I took it all out on you.

I never tried to encourage you.

Please forgive me, son.

All that is in the past now, Dad.

Nobody knew then.

And at that time, there was help that was needed that I couldn't really

provide for us.

No, no, no. That's not true. I'm the one who failed to fulfil my

duties as a father.

But you have fulfilled every responsibility as a son.

And, I could never tell you how proud I am of you.

When we got to the hospital, this is all I could think about.

And since you have been home, I've wanted to tell you all this. But, I couldn't.

Just let it go, Dad. And I was also to blame, right? I've never been there

for you. And Aditi had to handle everything alone.

No, no, no. Don't worry about all that. We'll take care of it.

But this one thing you have done, the way you help people who are less

fortunate than you-

Now we are not your family, those children are your family. Spend time

with them.

And you did the right thing by not listening to anyone. And chasing

your dreams.

You always followed your heart.

Don't ever change, my son.

Don't ever change.

I am proud of you.

Dad

I sorry.

Don't say that, son. Never say that.

You are doing a great job. It's very noble.

You don't worry about us at all. Okay?

Alakh is here.

-Hi, Sir. -Hi.

-Hello, Sir. -So what's up? All good?

No, it's not Prateek.

We need to talk about the term sheet.

To be a unicorn, to get funding…these were my dreams too.

But along with that, we do have some responsibilities.

We have to take care of those 5% children. They're all depending on us.

Right.

So, Aviral said that the free courses clause is going to be a

non-negotiable.

This is Aviral and his company's stand. The only thing that matters to me is,

what my team is thinking.

Sir, we can't take decisions emotionally. Sir, we break things. We move fast.

There are decisions that we have to take as a start-up.

At least we will be able to teach the rest of the 95% students better.

It's very simple, Sir. Funding, means the best teachers and create a top product,

not just for India, but for the whole world.

It's a win-win for the students. Wouldn't you also want to createp new

tools and products? But we are always in doubt whether we will be bale to do

But these problems don't exist anymore.

It or not.

Sir, I know that this sounds too far fetched right now, but in the

long run, it will make sense.

How?

Because sir, it's just four thousand rupees. It's a nominal cost. Anybody can

afford that.

Uh, twenty thousand?

Listen take care. Look the wheel is already broken.

-MANGYANI NIVAS 1988 -Okay. It's fine. It's fine.

What's going on here, Aditi?

The people who we mortgaged the house to, have found a buyer.

And what about us?

We'll rent a place, what else?

They can't afford it, Sanyam. I couldn't afford it.

Those-

Those 5% students who are unsure, a lot of those children's parents are

daily wage workers.

Which means they make an average of a hundred and twenty rupees per day.

Fifty for food, fifty for their home, and the twenty rupees that they

have left, they save that money bit by bit to buy our course.

They work for 200 days to be able to afford it.

Okay, tell me this. How many problems does a good student solve

in a day?

Roughly around 50.

Hmm.

Right? Which means 50200. That student will be able to solve 10,000 less

problems. This clearly means that the rank that the student actually

deserves,

will drop by at least ten thousand positions. That's too low. We make one

wrong decision today, and all those students will get affected.

If any of you are willing to take responsibility of pushing those students

behind, then I will gladly sign the term sheet.

Listen Prateek, maybe not today, but we will be a unicorn tomorrow.

And fulfil our dreams.

But in a rush and blindness to fulfil my dream, I will not ignore my

responsibility.

Yeah, you all have a say in the matter too. So whatever decision you

make here today, just let me know. I'll be here, right outside.

And I vote for a 'No. '

PHYSICS BIOLOGY CHEMISTRY

PW

So, what's your plan?

Plan for what?

Listen. Whatever you decide, let me know.

We stay together, and we leave together.

Stay here?

That's out of the question.

Even politicians from my hometown

are not as greedy as Alakh.

I heard this from the founder's office.

Prateek bhai and Sanyam

both said we should take the funding.

The term sheet was right there in front of them.

But that damn Alakh brainwashed everyone.

Man, he's just a 12th-pass guy

who didn't even finish college.

Come on, man!

It's a good thing he got a lucky break

and became a famous teacher on YouTube.

But fundraising should be left to people who are actually qualified.

-You're right. -You're a teacher.

Stick to teaching.

You know what?

We should come together and speak up.

Get rid of that damn Alakh. What is he even doing here?

He'll not even allow his photo to be removed from PW posters.

-Like hell he'll step aside. -He's a narcissistic prick, after all.

Exactly.

Bro, he cannot adjust.

That's probably why he rejected the funding.

Because he knows he would then have to listen to investors.

Believe me,

he would still be just a teacher

if his luck hadn't turned when he met Prateek bhai,

and they hadn't gone on to build the company

he now leads as CEO.

Bro, no matter how good the car is,

if the driver is incompetent,

the car is bound to crash.

Quack Pandey.

Sir.

Sorry, sir.

-Sorry, sir. -Sir…

Sir, we were being brainwashed

by the rumors we heard.

Don't worry.

I value your opinions.

But going forward,

if you have something to say,

say it to my face, not behind my back.

On one hand, he promises to teach kids for free,

and on the other, he's demanding a valuation of 80 billion rupees.

Valuation-hungry Alakh Pandey,

are you going to take all that money to your grave? Greedy man!

The so-called messiah who preys on the money of the poor.

Alakh "Thief" Pandey!

Their app keeps crashing, funding isn't coming through,

professors are quitting, and students' classes are being canceled.

Even politicians from my hometown are not as greedy…

Was the success of Physics Wallah just a fluke?

But fundraising should be left to people who are actually qualified.

…who didn't even clear college.

Everyone has read those articles.

Team morale is at an all-time low.

Everyone is asking the same question. Why didn't we get the funding?

The resignations are not stopping.

And it's not just teachers. Staff members are leaving too.

-Stick to teaching. -Prateek bhai and Sanyam

both said we should take the funding.

The term sheet was right there in front of them.

On the internet, truth doesn't sell, drama does.

-You're a teacher. Stick to teaching. -The tech team is overburdened,

and the rest of the teams have simply given up.

Even the people we made offers to during hiring

are now backing out.

Everyone is asking the same question. Why didn't we get the funding?

The same news outlets that once cheered us on

are now enjoying tearing us down.

-…take the funding. -The term sheet was right there…

Sir!

-Shivangi. Leave it. -What are you doing here?

It's fine.

It's quiet here.

What are these, Shivangi?

Sir, students send us letters,

Teacher's Day wishes,

their results,

and even complaints.

-That's about it. -Leave it.

I'll take care of this.

Go back to your work.

Sir, you…

-Shivangi? -Yes, sir?

Going forward…

please avoid using my photo on PW posters.

The applause should not stop.

SONIPAT, HARYANA

For the first time in our school's history,

we have not one but two toppers.

And one of them is even a girl.

Applaud louder!

Ankit beta, today is just a milestone.

Your journey is far from over.

You will definitely become a doctor.

But before that, we'll even send you to the Olympics.

Olympiad, ma'am.

And why are you not saying this to me?

Yes, yes! Tripti beta, you too.

You'll also become a doctor one day.

A PhD doctor.

And like me, maybe even a school principal someday.

Happy?

Applaud, children!

The applause shouldn't stop, children. Keep clapping.

-It's beautiful, right? -Yes.

Take it home for today,

but make sure you return it.

The display case at home is ready for it.

Why do you get to keep it?

The division should be equal.

Fine, let's keep it for six months each.

Is this the movie Baghban, where we share things for six months?

And what's your problem?

Why are you always trying to match me?

That's your biggest misunderstanding.

I'm not equal to you.

I'm better than you.

Oh.

Bro,

you really live in a fantasy world.

So listen carefully, respected Tripti Dahiya ji.

This was the biggest moment of your life,

standing on the same stage as "the" Ankit Yadav.

And anyway, everyone knows

that after tenth grade, it's nothing but downfall and hair fall for girls.

Hey!

All that filmy dialogue is what got you two extra marks in Hindi,

and that's how you ended up scoring the same as me in the boards. Got it?

And did you forget how I've been beating you for the past five years?

Now I'll prepare for NEET too

and beat you there as well.

You'll prepare for NEET?

Now I'm convinced you're completely delusional.

There's a technique for solving those questions

that only top coaching teachers can teach.

And as if you'd even go to coaching.

So, hand me the--

The trophy stays in the classroom.

Whoever gets the better NEET rank

gets to keep it after 12th grade.

Deal?

Deal.

Mom, I want to join a coaching institute.

All the boys from my class are joining.

If all the boys eat shit,

will you do that too?

Enough talking, make the roti.

What good will come from becoming a doctor?

There are four of them on every street.

Do you know

we would have to pay a donation along with the fees?

In a private institute, it can go up to ten million.

Where will I arrange that kind of money?

Dad, if I don't get into a government college,

then I'll not become a doctor. But for now,

please enroll me in coaching.

Even Sharma put his son in coaching.

He burned 200,000 in two years

and had to break his fixed deposit.

But his son is as dumb as a rock.

I mean,

I'll get a scholarship, right?

And there are EMI options too.

It'll cost just four to five thousand a month.

Do you think that is nothing?

Even Uncle is sending Rinku to coaching.

He's in ninth grade but takes coaching for Hindi.

He's a boy.

When he grows up, he'll earn and bring money home.

For you, we also have to pay dowry.

Dowry, school fees, and now coaching too?

We are not that well off.

Brother, what are you saying?

Brother,

Guddu is like my own child too. I'll pay the fees.

Stop crying, my child. Enough.

Do you even realize

that Balgotiya is eight kilometers away?

I'm not sending my daughter there alone.

Listen, do one thing.

Talk to Rinku.

If he goes with you to coaching,

then there'll be no problem.

No, no, no. I don't have that much time.

The coaching runs from three to eight,

and that's when I have my game practice.

Since when do people need to practice for this?

Since we lost the tournament to B Block.

After that, I took an oath

that I'll win gold for India in gaming.

I'm not talking to you guys!

Fine, go win the gold.

Who is stopping you?

But please understand

-that my coaching is important too. -From behind…

Man, the people in this house are so selfish.

They only care about themselves and not the country.

-I tied a rakhi on you. -Step forward.

It's your duty to protect me.

-No, no. Behind-- -You've been killed.

I am dead.

You know what, from now on, don't tie a rakhi.

It itches the whole time and ruins my game for two days.

Legends have to make sacrifices, understand?

You ruined my game.

Guddu, would you like some tea?

Yes, Auntie.

Then make four cups

and clean the kitchen as well.

-Listen. -Tell me.

Focus on keeping the house neat and clean.

Why are you wasting time on NEET?

To hell with all of you! I'll crack the exam without any coaching!

Very nice. I'm rushing them. Down, down, down.

Squad wiped.

Let's go.

Hey, a buggy is here!

I got hit from behind.

-Rinku! -Can you not give me cover?

Dead.

Wait for me… I'm coming.

Hurry up. Cover me.

Sir, extra sheet.

-Listen up, everyone! -Yes, bro.

A few months ago,

someone placed a bet with "the" Ankit Yadav.

Here are your doctor madam,

the respected Tripti Dahiya's marks.

Her physics score is borderline.

And she believed she could still crack NEET.

I would be surprised if she even clears her board exams.

That's why I told you, Tripti ji,

get used to walking with your head bowed.

Hey, Guddu.

Come in.

Hurry up.

Doesn't she seem too young?

-No corners should be cut at the wedding. -What happened?

Guddu, get ready quickly.

I have taken out the sari. Go wear it fast.

Why?

-Who are these people? -They have come with a marriage proposal.

Yes. The boy is an engineer.

What? I'm still in school.

So what?

It's only the engagement at this point. The wedding can wait.

-Auntie, I want to study. -Yeah, so--

I want to go to college.

You can study at your in-laws' house.

They're very nice people.

They even said you could continue studying through correspondence.

Who would say no to that?

Now come on, get ready.

Put on a small bindi. Go wear the sari. Go.

Alakh sir.

Are you planning to start a new startup without me?

No, Prateek bhai. The…

There was a lot of construction noise in my room, so I came here.

It has stopped now, sir. Let's go.

Shivangi said you asked for your picture to be removed

from the poster.

Yes, Prateek bhai.

I thought this whole thing might have started because of me,

but it's really not all about me, right?

So why do we need my photo everywhere?

Okay, sir. We'll talk about this later.

Right now, I'm really hungry. Let's go eat something.

Come on.

I don't feel like it today.

Come on, sir. Work can wait for now.

First, let's fuel up. Let's go.

My wife recommended a great new restaurant.

Let's try it. Come.

What's wrong, sir?

If you don't say anything,

we'll be sitting here like this all night.

Prateek bhai…

I think you should run

the company from now on.

Maybe I'm not qualified for it.

Is that so?

And what makes you think that?

I…

Maybe…

I'm too disconnected from reality, Prateek bhai.

If I had listened to you all, we would have secured funding by now,

and our situation would be much better.

But…

I…

should focus only on teaching, Prateek bhai.

Sir, tell me one thing.

You…

consider yourself a good teacher, right?

Yes.

I'm not too shabby.

But you're not exactly qualified for that either, sir.

You've only completed 12th grade.

Yet you helped so many students clear the JEE and NEET exams.

The day you thought,

"I have nothing else to do,

so I'll teach children for free on YouTube,"

you were delusional, sir.

Your mind was clouded

and far removed from reality.

But look at you today.

That same delusion took you from nothing to this.

Today, you're India's most loved physics teacher.

So please, sir,

never step out of this delusion.

Practical people

follow the right path,

but delusional people manage to make whichever path they take…

the right one.

Prateek bhai, that was different.

-Running a company is-- -You refuse to accept it, sir.

Let me give you an example.

There was a bus conductor

who was completely delusional.

He had a very unusual style

of selling tickets.

He used to sell tickets like this.

People loved his style so much

that they turned him into a film star.

Today, when his films release,

people bathe him in milk.

Name,

Rajinikanth,

the great Thalaiva.

There was another man

who came from a small village in Gujarat,

riding a bicycle stacked with spices,

-determined to hold the world in his fist. -I know him.

I do.

Dhirubhai Ambani.

But I'm not like them, Prateek bhai.

And I motivate students for a living,

so you're going to have to try harder than that.

I'm not selling motivation, sir, but delusion.

Because your delusion is absolutely right.

I've been practical all my life.

Before this,

three of my startups failed,

and all of them were practical.

This one worked because it had delusion,

the delusion you brought. Do you know why?

Because you're the first person who sees a customer not as a customer,

but as a human being.

That's the only reason we've come this far.

And one day,

this same delusion

will take PW to unimaginable heights.

Enjoying your food, gentlemen?

No, bro. Didn't enjoy it at all.

-Sir… -I'm just being honest, Prateek bhai.

Sir, if you didn't want to come here, we could've gone somewhere else.

You should've told me earlier. Bro, we're in the wrong place.

Let's go somewhere else. Come on.

What did you just say, Prateek bhai?

Let's go somewhere else.

We're in the wrong place. Let's go to a dhaba, sir.

Prateek bhai, did you notice something?

What, sir?

Whenever we sought funding,

everyone we approached backed only startups

that focused on luxury brands, high-margin businesses,

and serving India's top 0.1 percent.

Yes.

And that's not us.

That means we were--

-Going to the wrong places. -Correct.

That's why we always ended up with tacos.

Prateek bhai,

call for a meeting.

Country Bridge Capital, founded by Sameer Singhal,

has invested in low-cost airlines, healthcare, and fashion.

Low cost but high impact.

We need to reach Sameer Singhal

by any means possible.

Sir, I have a few contacts who might help us reach him.

I can try.

We have built a bridge for many startups

with Country Bridge.

Thank you so much, sir.

You know the rate, right?

Fifteen percent of the total funding amount, all in cash.

Oh no, sir. That is too much.

We also have an offer of ten percent.

You'll get the date for 2027.

No, no, Sonia.

-I just wanted to ask about an institute-- -No, Sanyam!

Hang up right now.

If you ever call me again, I'll call the cops.

Leave me alone. Hang up!

I know, guys. I know. Sameer sir was on my podcast,

but honestly, I don't have a direct way to reach him.

Shivangi, we sent testimonials to Country Bridge.

Check if they replied.

Sir, the F5 key broke from constant refreshing.

The new keyboard is here, but there's still no reply.

She hasn't changed, sir.

She said no, just like before.

What happened?

The call was from the Poket Kart CEO.

They closed a Series C round with Country Bridge three months ago.

So?

We have a meeting, sir.

Try to understand, Prateek bhai.

I can make the call right now, but it'll not help.

At least we can try.

I already tried with two others.

-They got replies as well. -And?

Rejections.

As I said, you should wait.

Sometimes good things take time

because they have to happen at the right time.

We have gone through all our contacts, Prateek bhai.

We couldn't even knock on Country Bridge's door,

let alone open it.

But he was not wrong, sir.

If we step back and look at it,

we've tried every remedy we had,

and now maybe all that's left is prayer.

-Straight home, sir? -Yes.

-Satish bhai? -Sir?

Last month you mentioned about…

Arjun?

-Yes, sir. -Arjun's coaching, right?

Yes, sir.

What's the update? You never told me.

I'll transfer the money right away.

No, sir.

It's not needed anymore.

There it cost a hundred thousand,

and here it was done for just 4,000.

It's online classes, sir.

It's about the child's future.

Don't compromise on quality.

That's not the case, sir.

They teach very well.

Many students have cracked it just by studying there.

Is Arjun happy?

He's very happy, sir.

He found it himself.

His preparation has already begun.

Since childhood, he has heard your stories,

so he says he wants to go to IIT

and become like you, sir.

-He will, for sure. -Sir.

Anyway, what's the name of the institute?

That's it, sir.

Thank you so much for your time.

If you have any questions, please ask.

-Great presentation, guys. -Thank you, sir.

I have heard some

lovely things about you all.

Please give us some time.

We need to have a few internal discussions.

For now, you can visit our exhibition room.

We have arranged tea and snacks for you.

What do you think, Prateek bhai?

Will he invest?

Let's see, sir.

Prayer got us this far. Now let's see if it takes us any further.

Come on, man!

-This calls for a buttermilk party! -It sure does!

What party, man?

I didn't even hit 90.

-Man… -So what?

The second-ranker didn't even get 75.

And if you add both our scores, it still wouldn't match yours.

Am I right?

Renuka!

Renuka!

Why hasn't Tripti come to school the past few days?

Is everything okay?

How would I know?

I've been calling her like crazy, but she won't pick up.

Anyway, do you know where she lives? Do you know her address?

Oh, hello!

I'm not risking a beating over your romance.

No, it's not that. I just want to see her once.

Please, tell me.

Okay, fine.

But don't just show up without a reason.

Make up an excuse.

Congratulations to you too.

-Here, have some sweets. -Son, this calls for some sweets.

It sure does.

Congratulations.

You too.

-Hello, what do you want? -Tripti.

-What? Want to get smacked? -No, no, Uncle.

I'm Tripti's classmate.

So? What are you doing here? Who are you?

I'm her class monitor.

What's this new surname?

-Gurjar? -No, Uncle.

I'm her class monitor.

Here's her trophy.

-I wanted to give it to her. -But Tripti doesn't go to school anymore.

That's why I came here to give it to her.

Ma'am didn't know about it.

Son, Tripti is getting married now. Understand?

You can keep the trophy. Okay? Now leave.

Go. I have a ton of work.

-Greetings. -Greetings. All good?

All good.

-Our daughter's wonderful. -Our son's great too.

Now, she's our daughter.

Hey, what's wrong?

-What? -Quiet! Are you crazy?

If my uncle sees you, he'll break you in half.

Anyway, you're shaped like a twig.

Okay, calm down. Breathe.

I know.

-I just wanted to talk. -Out with it!

-What is it? -Sorry.

I didn't know you were going through all this.

If I had known, I wouldn't have said all that.

Sorry.

Wow.

"The" Ankit Yadav is saying sorry?

I thought you were here to mock me.

I have no business mocking you.

I would have been better only if we were equals.

All these years, you handled all the household chores

and still outscored me.

And even after giving it my everything, I can only match your scores.

So how are we equals?

You are better, right?

Anyway, why aren't you coming to school?

Tell me.

What's the point now?

If I have to spend my life in the kitchen and handling household chores,

why not become the best at it?

At least I'd get fewer taunts from my in-laws.

Are you the same Tripti

who would fight the school principal?

What happened to you?

Talk to your family, fight them.

What do you think, Ankit? Haven't I already?

I fought a lot,

but no one stood up for me.

My own brother wouldn't even drop me off for coaching.

There's no way in hell they'd send me to medical college!

You can't go to coaching,

but it can come to you, right?

You can study online with Physics Wallah.

Use my login.

I sent you the details. Check it.

Done.

Did they kick you out of Balgotiya?

Everyone there studies from here too.

-Oh. -Listen,

I know there isn't much time,

but it's still enough for you. You can crack NEET.

But what good will that do?

They'll never let me go to college. I'll never become a doctor.

But if you get a rank, it will shut everyone up.

You'll prove to everyone who thought you were weak

that you deserve it.

Why are you getting so sentimental for me?

The truth is,

I scored so well on my tenth board exams

only because I was trying to beat you.

I got better by competing against you.

But now that you're gone,

it just isn't the same.

Listen, let's prepare together.

Didn't you say no one stood by you?

I'll stand by you.

Just come to school. I'll handle the rest.

Okay, not for me or you. Do it for our bet.

Do it for this trophy.

Otherwise, I win by default.

You'll win?

Not in your dreams, son.

That's more like it.

Consider this. You have 1,000 rupees,

and someone snatches 500 from you and runs away.

What will you do with the remaining 500?

Will you throw it on the road? No, right?

So don't think of it as your remaining money.

Think of it as your remaining time.

So what if 11th grade's over? 12th's still ahead, my friend.

Stay strong. Stay standing.

The ones who fight their own battles are the ones who move ahead.

Now let's move on to the next question.

Guddu, what took you so long?

I've been waiting for you. Here, fold these and put them away.

I'll go make the tadka for the dal.

Okay? Get moving.

The problems you solved are correct,

but you only completed half of them.

We had guests at home.

All my time went into attending to them.

Then you could have said no.

How could I?

By using your mouth.

Not my words. Alakh sir said this.

Let me show you.

You may have countless reasons not to study,

but you must stay committed to your path.

The time you have now is extremely valuable.

If anyone asks for it,

they should feel guilty for asking…

Finish washing these. After that,

-clear the food left outside as well. -…not you for saying no.

I don't want to do chores.

I'm getting married in a year, right? So spare me until then!

Let me study for one year, please!

Okay. Why are you shouting?

Do you ever get anything done without someone shouting at you?

Listen, make me a coffee without sugar.

I'm getting sleepy.

Still sleepy?

Time's up.

Hall 3.

All the best.

All the best.

Ankit!

Thank you.

Ankit.

-Is it out? -No, Mom.

Check again.

Relax.

-Relax? -It will come.

-I cleared it. -You did?

-Yeah? -He cleared it!

He did it!

-I knew it all along. -Yes!

Ankit?

-Son? -What happened?

-Wait a minute. Just one minute. -You cleared, right?

Aren't you happy?

What's going on?

Ankit?

Son?

What's wrong?

Hey, Ankit!

-Did you not get a good rank? -Ankit!

We'll get you into a private college.

Tell him.

Our Sonipat NEET topper,

Tripti ji, is with us today.

Keep your dreams, I'll keep mine

Tripti ji, tell us about your plans going forward.

Which college would you like to join?

-Well, her marriage is-- -Listen.

Whatever college she wants to go to, we'll send her there.

She's the smartest among all of us.

She'll make her own decisions.

Fly, little bird, let no chain bind

Open your wings…

Tripti ji, who would you like to give credit to for your success?

I would like to give credit for my success

to my friend Ankit…

and my brother,

Alakh sir.

Prateek bhai.

Tie this to me.

Where did you get this, sir?

There's a girl from Haryana,

Tripti.

Her brother

refused to take her to coaching,

and her family

didn't support her studies.

She used to learn from us in secret.

She sent this rakhi with all her heart.

Tie it to me.

Guys.

Congratulations.

The deal is done.

Fly, little bird, let no chain bind

Open your wings, the sky is yours to find

Looks like Physics Wallah runs on prayers alone, sir.

What happened?

Aren't you guys happy?

At least show some emotion.

Sir.

Physics Wallah is an emotion.

I'm sorry, I don't understand.

-Sorry, sir… -It's nothing.

Just an inside joke.

So, let's discuss the other details.

What are your plans going forward?

I'm giving you the funding you asked for.

Should we talk about expansion plans?

Definitely, sir. Right away. Yes.

Sir,

we'll go offline.

Are you serious?

I mean, online is working fine.

Fine isn't enough anymore.

We have to give our best.

Online is good,

but there are still many kids in our country's

Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities who can afford offline classes.

The problem is that they either have no classes at all,

or the few that exist

are too far away.

Yes.

Offline gives students the environment

and the benefit of peer-to-peer learning.

Until now,

kids came to Physics Wallah.

Now, Physics Wallah will go to them.

And also…

I want to add

one more photo to this gallery.

In a place like this,

a rural area…

there will be a Physics Wallah's Vidyapeeth.

Subtitle translation by: Vishal Singh

Till now, students would come to Physics Wallah. Physics Wallah

will now go to the students.

-#MISSION 2023 ADMISSIONS OPEN -The first step is visualisation.

Visualisation is the Key. Teachers have tried everything since time began.

Some spun wheel with their hand, and some made vectors with their fingers.

But they could never manage to make the students feel the explanation.

We need to solve that.

Every class will have Cameras installed. Even if a student can't physically

make it to the class, they can still re-visit the lessons.

The CCTV will cover the whole class. So that if a student is hesitant to

clear his doubts, we find out. Live doubt counters.

DOUBT COUNTER 1 DOUBT COUNTER 2 DOUBT COUNTER 3 DOUBT COUNTER 4 DOUBT

Now they can come up and get their doubts cleared 247. Whether to ask a

-Alakh Sir. There's a call for you. -FROM ALAKH SIR"S DESK TO PARENTS

-I'll take it later. -It's an important call. Mr. Trivedi.

-Trivedi Sir from Trivedi classes? -Yes, Sir.

TRIVEDI CLASSES

Hey. Come.

When I heard that you were in Kota, I had to meet you. I've seen you online

a lot. I really appreciate the work you are doing.

Thank you, Sir.

What I invented here in Kota, you have taken it to every nook and corner of our

country. Great job.

Sir, you haven't invented this either. Gurukuls have been a part of

this country since forever.

But, yeah. You've converted the whole city into a Gurukul. That was

amazing.

You've always been an inspiration to me.

Just being inspired is not enough. You should associate with us.

Now that you've come to my city., why don't we work together. Hmm?

You know, just by your name there will be a lot of students who would want

to come to Kota for coaching.

Your tech and reach, our teachers and study material.

Om Namah Shivaya.

Who wouldn't want to collaborate with you, Mr. Trivedi? And thank

you so much for the offer, Sir.

But, our processes are completely different.

Why? Are you trying to tell me that the physics you teach is invented by you?

No, Sir. The Physics is the same. But ideologies are different.

We see students as students, and not rankers or bankers.

You must be kidding, Mr Pandey. It appears that even you have fallen for

the rumours.

If I had been this bad, Mr. Pandey, do you think I would have survived

this long? Hmm?

I'm offering you a great opportunity here. You should

think about it.

Sir, I had a lot of offers from a lot of places. If I would have taken

any one of them I wouldn't be here today.

You see, we have an aim. We look for potential in every student.

And sending some students into topper batch is not competition, it is

discrimination, Sir.

We believe that every student should, every day feel confident and

not stressed. "How would I make it from A4 to A3? Then move to A2? Then A1?"

You know Mr. Pandey, one million students apply for IIT. And the limit is

only ten thousand.

Only they want, only A1 students.

IIT UNIVERSITY SHOT

They are given first priority. Now probably you'll say that IIT

and AIIMS, they also discriminate. Even they don't admit everyone.

But, they don't take fees from everyone.

-They don't peddle hope either. They don't -NEWSPAPER ADS AND FLYERS SHOWING OFF

-do promotions saying "Come to us!" -DIFFERENT CLASSES WITH ATTRACTIVE

-We will change your lives." -PASSING PERCENTAGE

This is a narrative that was fabricated by your city.

I think it's very clear to me now, and let me tell you, why it is

so difficult for you to get funding.

You know what, Mr. Pandey, after years tremendous hard work, we've devised

a method of creating toppers!

Fine, Sir. You should scout for toppers. And we'll increase the Country's

cut-off.

And if we keep working hard, maybe one day we will create our own toppers.

But we follow our own rules.

Oh, and Mr. Trivedi, the path of honest generally take you longer to reach the

destination. And I'm used to it.

I welcome to Kota, my friend. God bless you always.

I wish you the best.

He is back.

So, Alakh?

What was Mr. Trivedi saying?

He wants us to collaborate.

For a reel?

Because in business it's out of the question, right?

That is exactly what I said.

Yeah, that's perfect.

-So what were you guys talking about? -Oh, he spoke a lot.

He was trying his best to get us to work with him and collaborate with-

Sir, Mr. Bhavik just resigned.

-What? -His phone is also switched off.

But he is the centre head. The inauguration is in two days. How can he

One second.

Do this to us?

Let me figure out something. Just give me

Listen, Prateek. Just inform Rahul that

a minute.

He is going to be heading the team now.

Okay. I will let him know.

But how can he do this to us?

Sir, the owner of the building has increased the rent. Five times

-over, sir. -I'll just call you back.

He said he's got another offer. And if you want you can sue me.

I just got to know that Rahul has also resigned along with his entire

team. The mails are different but the language is exactly the same.

Sir, what is going on? Everything was perfectly fine up till now? I just

don't understand what's-

There's nothing to understand? It was all pre-meditated. They were just waiting

for the order from the mastermind.

JEE OR NEET INCOMPLETE WITHOUT US YOUR DREAM OUR RESPONSIBILITY ADMISSION

Don't worry guys. We have secured funding to deal with all of this.

We'll deal with one problem at a time.

Let's go to the hotel. And see the teachers?

They are all there, Sir.

Let's go.

MAINT TITLE

This is just not done. I mean how un-professional can one be?

Excuse me. Can you please go and take a look at what's happening?

It's showing 40 minutes from here.

40 minutes?

It's just a ten minute drive.

Should I look for another route?

What happened?

There's a car crash. Probably a student. Must be using his phone while

crossing the street. Got run over.

-If you want, I can take another route? -Yeah, the map is showing me

-another route, check it out. -Sir.

-Take a U-turn from here. -Alakh.

Has anybody called an ambulance? Has anybody called an ambulance?

Alakh! Alakh! Let's take him with us.

Ask people to move.

Move, move, get out of the way please.

-Make way for me. -Come on, Alakh.

Hurry up. Hurry up.

Come on. Come on.

Open the door! Come on, open the door.

Take us a hospital! Any hospital. Hurry!

Out, get out of the way.

You guys need to wait outside over here. We'll take care of him. Don't worry.

Please fill the form sir. Sir, you want a private room?

Please, don't leave any stone unturned.

Okay. Is he your relative?

Sir.

What's happening?

His phone was completely broken in the accident. I just found this card.

Then make a phone call to his institute and find out where his parent are from.

I did, sir. I told them what happened to him. But they refused to

acknowledge the him. They're saying this boy is not their student.

But this ID card is from there. He's wearing their uniform. How can

-they deny this. -I don't know, Sir.

They won't do it, Sir.

He tried to kill himself.

Suicide?

Everyone wants to take credit for a topper. But when things like

this happen-

But, who are you?

Arush. I'm a friend of his. We used to study in the same batch.

NEET INCOMPLETE WITHOUT US YOUR DREAM OUR RESPONSIBILITY

I would have stayed in a non-AC room. I might have even shared it. I don't

have a problem adjusting. Sometime you really overdo things.

These two years are going to be the most important years of your life. What's

think about it.

Once you get into IIT, son, money won't be a problem for us.

Your results decide if this was a lot of money or not. Understand?

You're in A3 now, right?

Hmm.

You need to go to A1. So, you need all the right tools for that. Hmm?

Hmm. Okay.

Stop worrying about the money? I'm there? You just work hard. That's

it. I'll take care of everything.

-So, students, who is going to solve this -Come on.

Problem? Your time starts… now.

10… 9… 8…

Is there any IITian in this class or not? 5

4. Come on, come on. 3… 2…

Sir. Sir, I got it. 20 kilometers.

Yes. You're guessing, right?

Come… solve it.

So, sir, the question is…

Hmm.

That train A is coming at 20 kmhr.

Okay.

And train B is coming at 30 kmhr. And they are 100 kilometre apart.

So we need to find out, if this bird flies at 10 kilometres per hour and goes

from train A and touches train B,

then flies back to train A, and continues doing this, then how far has this bird

traveled?

Wow. He understood the question.

At least he can clear Mains now. Now let's see if you clear the Advanced.

So, Sir, let's assume that thr train B's speed is zero. So, the speed of train A

will be 50 kmhr.

And the distance is 100 kilometres. So, the time to collision is going to be

two hours.

So, 10 into 2 equals to 20 kilometers.

Sir.

Wow! That was incredible! Truly incredible. You made my day.

Awesome! This boy is awesome! I'm telling you. This is what you call a genius!

He doesn't come here to learn; he studies ahead.

This question was from the next topic. Frame of reference. Alright? Which he

has already studied. Understand?

-What's your name, kid? -Lakshya, Sir.

Oh wow. Your name actually means "aim". Okay then, let me show you what your aim

-should be. -Yes, Sir.

All India Rank. Within the top 100 kids. You belong there.

Just remember one thing: if there's even the slightest slack in your effort,

then this could change to one thousand.

If you get involved in gaming or game then this number could change

from thousand to hundred thousand.

However, if you continue working hard like this, this can go from here

to a top 10 rank.

And if you are ready to give up everything, and even God is on your

side, this can change to number 1.

Yes, Sir

Thank you, Sir.

Lakshya.

Don't forget your reward.

Well done. Keep it up.

Thank you, Sir.

Hey, don't do that! Please lie down.

Ma'am, I have my reshuffling test. It was at two o'clock. I'm already late.

Hey, stop, stop! Sit down, sit down. Just relax, okay?

What test? It is seven pm right now.

You were given sedatives because we had to give you stitches. Now get

student, right? Why would I lie to you, Sir? Sir just look at me, sir. I

really had to get stitches. Believe me. Just give me one chance, Sir. Please.

But, if we allow a retest for you, then everyone will be like, "Sir, give

us another chance too"

Everyone will have some kind of an excuse.

We can't make an exception.

I'm not making excuses. I even have a letter from the hospital Sir. See for

yourself. It's written clearly, that I lost consciousness and-

If this happened on the day of the entrance,

would IIT give you a retest?

No, Sir.

Sir. Sir, at least let me stay in A3, Sir. I don't deserve A9, Sir.

-Lakshya look, -Please,Sir.

You'll learn to cope.

And it's not a big deal. If not the top hundred, at least the top thousand.

Your father hasn't eaten since last night. Your friend Aarush, who isn't as

smart as you, even he has made it to A2.

Okay, Mom, listen. Don't stress about all this, okay? I'll manage somehow.

Don't worry.

Lakshya, you need to take this seriously. Your fees, and the single room

you wanted, we didn't have any savings for that. Your father took

a loan.

To see you graduate from IIT.

It's the only dream he had. You don't even have an option to skip a year.

-Yes, okay, Mom. I got it. I'll call you -Understand what I am saying?

Back.

Hello. I'm not done.

-What's up. You were talking to your mom? -Yeah.

Tell her I'm right here, bro, taking care of you.

They must be quite worried, hearing about your injury.

Yeah.

But they were more worried about what batch I got into.

What's the big deal about the batch man.

A1 students get into the IIT, right?

If you don't get into the IIT, NIT is there.

But I only want to go to the IIT.

But why? Even other colleges can get you into well paying jobs.

Bro, it's not about the money. My father started out as a technician in the

railways.

It took him 20 years to get to the junior engineer level.

He didn't even know how to operate a computer. And, one day he made a

small mistake.

A guy who was twenty years junior insulted him in front of everyone and

he said, "You're lucky this is a government job, otherwise I

would've fired you right now!"

That junior was from the IIT.

He had joined as a General Manager.

That was the day, my father swore that, he's going to send me to the IIT,

not matter what it takes, he will do it.

My father explained everything to me. IIT will get you a great salary, a house,

everything.

But what matters most, is, dignity.

Listen bro, this is your life to live. Don't get bogged down by all of this.

But he didn't think like that, right? He did so much for me.

And in return I can't even fulfil one small dream of his? Huh?

But it's not that easy, right?

Hmm. yeah, I'm realising that now, Arush.

But, now, it's not about the rank anymore. Now it's all about

the cut-off. I just have to make that.

Anyone has any doubts, go ahead and ask me.

No, Sir.

Sir, don't you give us chocolates problems to solve?

I son, I have diabetes.

Look kiddo, this chocolate problem you

-are talking about is a JEE Advanced -A9-BATCH PHYSICS PROBLEM SOLVING SESSION

question.to do with it. We have to focus on JEE mains, that's it.

Sir, but I want to prepare for the JEE Advanced. Sir, please tell me how

I need to go about that please.

Listen kid, we all want to own a Ferrari. But can we all afford it?

No, right?

So just be grateful for whatever you have. No there are some kids who ruined

their mains, for their quest for advanced.

Even after paying huge amounts as fees. Your father still has to make a

donation. DO you want to be that guy?

-No, Sir. -Sir, it's not like that.

Listen if you tell someone the truth, or you don't, but always have to be true to

yourself.

If you were good enough for IIT, you think you would have been in this class?

No, right? That's it.

So, focus on what you have right now. Did you get what I am saying? Sit down.

-Sir. Excuse me, Sir. Two minutes. -Hmm?

A curfew has been imposed in Kota. On the day of our inauguration.

Yes.

Yes. On the same day, all other institutes have scheduled

their surprise reshuffling tests. We are new here, so they are trying to

teach us the law of the land.

Don't worry. We will talk to the DM about lifting the curfew, okay?

I have taken the appointment. The meeting is in two hours.

But the surgery is in half an hour. We have to wait, Sanyam.

Yes, Alakh. But-

Sir. The doctor is here.

I'll see you.

-Make all the preparations for the -Doctor

surgery.

Uh, look Alakh, I'll be honest. His leg is severely damaged.

And he has lost a lot of blood as well so, I'm sorry, we might have to

amputate his leg.

Doctor, is there any other option?

Right now we are not in a position to say anything.

Okay, sir. You do what you think is best. Just make sure that Lakshya

makes it.

Sure. We're going to do the best we can.

Have you spoken to his parents? When are they going to get here?

I just spoke to them, doctor. They'll be here tomorrow morning.

But we need their consent for the surgery. I'll get you the forms for

-the procedure. -Thank you sir.

What happened after the 12th grade, Arush?

Sir, after his transfer to A9, it was clear, that the institute is

not going to help him in any way.

But he had already paid the fees, so he couldn't change the institute. So he was

studying on his own.

After a while he stopped coming to class. He even stopped hanging out with all

of us.

And if we bumped into each other, he would just say one thing. "I have to

clear the cut-off somehow."

All he wanted was to be an IITian.

ALL INDIA MOCK TEST

You just focus on getting into the IIT. After paying so much money. Money won't

be a problem for us.

Even after paying so much, parents have to shell out money for donations.

He just wanted to clear the cut-off, Sir.

All this pressure forced him to do this.

But we don't have any other option. We have to study harder

You just need to get into the IIT.

We just got the funding, Alakh. We've barely gotten back on track

and if you resign then-

Not at all, Prateek. Nothing is fine. Everything just looks like it is fine.

I have just seen first hand, what is happening in this city.

A was pushed so far towards the edge for his selection that he-

We got to know about it.

But, you don't know the whole truth, Prateek.

That boy is not dead yet. But he is doing to die a new death everyday.

When he realises that the IIT tag he was running after so badly,p isn't that

significant.

Parents hinge the family's honor, the future of the family, and everything

on the student's selection.

WHy didn't anybody tell the kid that it's not bigger than his life?

There wasn't one teacher in Kota who could tell him that?

And now we've started an institution. We have to show results as well.

-And if the results are not good, -PHYSICS WALLAH

there won't be admissions. There will be no funding.

And Aditi, even if I move heaven and Earth and decide to fight,

I'll end up facing the same people who are the outcome of this system?

How will they ever understand me?

You know Prateek, one day, one of our PW student will attempt a suicide.

And a PW employee will be trying their best to save PW's image instead

of helping him.

This Kota has become a factory, because these people have made it one.

Everyone is just trying to sell people a tag. The IIT tag.

Prateek, you are an IITian, right? And I'm not. But both of us are at

the same place, isn't it?

Do you really think this tag makes any difference?

No I don't think it does, Alakh.

Alakh, you are getting a little too emotional today. I think you should

just take some time to yourself. Relax and sleep over it. We'll

take a call tomorrow. Yeah?

Yes.

I'm not at all emotional, Prateek. I taken this decision after a lot

of thought.

And so Prateek, you take care of this now.

I think I'll continue teaching on YouTube. I don't want to make students

rankers out of pressure; but I want them to fall in love with the subject and

then become rankers.

Yeah, it'll take time, but I am used to it.

There, everything works my way. No more pressure.

Tomorrow at the event Alakh is going to announce his resignation.

PW kids deserve a proper goodbye from their favourite teacher.

Aditi, not many kids will show up tomorrow.

It's the day of our launch, right? So, there will be plenty of conspiracies

theories floating around.

It's better if fewer people attend. What do you think?

Are you ready with everything?

-Yes, Aditi. -Ma'am.

Hmm?

I have edited the slides. You can take a look.

-Is it okay? -PW GOODBYE KIDS

Alakh, Lakshya's parents are at the hospital. He is also feeling better now.

They wanted to have a word with you.

It's a video call.

How are you, sir?

I'm fine, thank you.

Sir, Aarush told us what you did for Lakshya. Thank you. Sir, thank you.

It's okay. I think you just need to take care of Lakshya. He was

doing all this just for you.

Yes, Sir, I… I made a big mistake, Sir.

We never thought our son will take such a drastic step.

A sensible child can go to war for his parents. But he can never fight with

his own parents.

May I talk to Lakshya?

Yes.

Hello, Sir. Sir, I am sorry. I made a big mistake. Forgive me.

Why are you saying sorry, buddy? Hmm? Everybody else has wronged you.

Never say that again, okay?

Sir, to tell you the truth, when I was about to crash that's exactly when I

realized what a huge mistake I was making.

I made, I made a big mistake, Sir.

But all that is pointless, now.

Now everyone will look at me with pity.

Now I want you to listen to me carefully. The world's biggest play is "what

will people say" Okay?

Alright, tell me something. What is it that you want to do?

I just want to go home. I just want to go home.

And Sir, before I leave, please, I just want to meet you once. Please, Sir.

Okay. Don't worry. I'll definitely come to see you. Hmm? You take care of

yourself.

Yes, Sir. Sir, thank you, Sir. Thank you.

Yes, sir.

Hello, children.

Hello.

VIDYAPEETH KOTA

Alakh Sir! Alakh Sir! Alakh Sir!

How are you all doing?

Are you all doing okay?

I hope you're doing well.

-VIDYAPEETH KOTA -Quiet children, quiet!

Settle down children, settle down.

We don't have a lot of time. But I want to tell you something, so listen to

carefully.

My dear children, today, I just want to convey one thing to you.

That all of you are here with the hope in your hearts today

that me, PW, will make sure you will get into the IIT, right?

Yes, Sir.

That we'll make you crack AIIMs, correct?

Yes, Sir.

That you will be offered millions worth of salary packages, correct?

Yes, Sir.

But that's not what's going to happen here.

I will not be making promises of that sort here at all.

And don't forget, children, if anybody ever makes such promises to you, it only

mean that that promise is a lie.

See the situation is very simple. IIT and AIIMS have a limited number of seats.

We have more students than that, studying in PW today.

So no matter how hard I work with you, it is not possible for me to guarantee a

seat for every student who is studying here.

That's why I say children, IIT and AIIMs are not the things you should dream of.

You should not be working hard to get those particular degrees.

But yes, in preparation to get that degree, whatever hard work

and discipline is required,

the focus with which all of you find yourself in pursuit of that one

goal, that is your degree.

You need to prepare to make yourself better. You need to prepare to make

yourself capable.

Because that capability will stay within you for life.

Every day, walk of life, that capability will stay with you.

Children! A lot of people went to the IIT and became successful.

And those who didn't go? There are many more successful people who

didn't go there.

There is an example here, right in front of you today. You wanna know?

Yes, Sir.

You see Prateek here? He is from the IIT. But I'm not from the IIT.

But right now we are standing together on the same stage. Side by side. Do you see

that?

Yes, Sir.

Children, I'm just a 12th grader. But I have always worked hard, and

never shied away from it.

And you are already familiar with my journey. Aren't you?

Yes, Sir.

What do you all think? That if Prateek here, graduated from the IIT, but

then did not work hard at all, would he be here standing in front of you?

No, Sir.

He wouldn't be.

We have worked hard day and night. The both of us together have made PW.

Prateek loves to work hard. Making himself better everyday, makes him

happier.

And this is the real pursuit. You have to make yourself better!

Everyday you have to make yourselves better.

You have to remember this children. It is not the pursuit of happiness.

The pursuit is the happiness.

So, at the end of the day will you make me a promise today?

Yes, Sir.

You sure?

Yes, Sir.

Children. None of you will ever be preparing for the fact that one day you

will be the part of the IIT.

Instead, with that preparation, you will make yourself so capable that IIT

will come and knock at your door and say " My child, it is you But you

prepare to make yourself so competent Child, we want you. Promise?

-That the college comes to your -Yes, Sir.

Doorstep and says

-It's a promise? -Yes, Sir.

It's a promise?

Yes, Sir.

It's a promise?

Yes, Sir.

It's a promise?

Yes, Sir.

It's a promise?

-Yes, Sir. -It's a promise?

-It's a promise -It's a promise?

It's a promise

-Hey wait, sir… -Sir

-Sir, stop, sir. Sir, sir, sir. -Don't hit them! Don't hit them! Don't hit

them!

Hello students!

Hello students!

I USED TO SIT HERE ON A MAT AND STUDY.

I USED TO WORK FROM 6:00 A.M. TO 2:00 P.M. I WOULD START STUDYING FROM 3:00 P.M.

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE? HOW WAS THE RESULT? WAS IT GOOD?

SIR, I TOPPED MY DISTRICT IN HIGH SCHOOL. SO MANY TOPPERS YOU HAVE PRODUCED.

MY NAME IS ALAKH PANDEY. AND I'M FROM ALLAHABAD.

WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF YOU WEREN'T THERE? YOU BROUGHT MY LIFE BACK ON TRACK.

PW'S SUPER BOSS PRATEEK MAHESHWARI.

YOU SHOULD ALWAYS DREAM BEYOND YOUR CAPACITY. ONLY IF YOU DREAM, CAN IT COME TRUE.

AND IF YOU ARE INTO ACADEMICS, FOCUS YOUR ENERGY ELSEWHERE.

IMMERSE YOURSELF IN SOMETHING CONSTRUCTIVE.

SITUATION WILL CHANGE. TIME WILL CHANGE. KEEP DOING SOMETHING PRODUCTIVE IN LIFE.

ALL THE VERY BEST. JAI HIND.
