23:40 biswa raised a very true and relevant question "Why good education is a rare comodity?"
-
Kaafi high emotions in the comments. "Ye IIT-JEE ka dukh saala khatam nahin hota be?"
-
Not Biswa getting super excited on winning after cursing the whole exam system 😂😂
-
For Me As A Dropper.. Best line... "STRESS KA EK LIMIT HOTA HAI USKE BAAD MAZA AANE LAGTA HAI" _BISWA (IITKGP)
-
Biswa explaining Euler's theorem .... epic !!!
-
Why Prashasti is speaking on 2x while Varun Grover on 0.5x😂😂
-
Thank you Varun for getting Biswa here. Miss him so much on Youtube. He has the funniest and unique takes on life and world.
-
I have taught calculus in India, Germany and the US, and I can assure that to get students to say "L'Hospital" correctly is a world-wide struggle!! 😂
-
Varun: "Sabka Physics hi favorite...." Abhishek: Nahi wo HC Verma, patli thi kitaab 😂😂
-
"Dukh ka anth hi IIT JEE ka exam hai" - Damn... described 3 years of my life with that one sentence.
-
They are all still traumatized....
-
I had goosebumps when Varun started talking about 'Mera naam joker'. That was the movie of my childhood, I was very small maybe 4/5 but it's still burnt in my memory from it being an absolute masterpiece. It must have been my introduction to comedy/tragedy besides Charlie Chaplin casettes

I am now in my 30s. Looking back now it really doesn't matter which college you went. It's true that IIT will open opportunities earlier but anyone who is focused and hardworking will eventually reach where they deserve to be. Parents push because they are afraid about life uncertainties. Focus on learning, being happy and to be honest that all matters. Writing this message in hope someone who is young and is confused reads and understands. Life is not a race. Just live and enjoy.

Abhishek - Harmonium Biswa - Flute Varun - Gazal Gayak Prashasti - Tabla ...tigad tigad tigad ..dhaa 😂😂😂😂

While prashasti had no nail paint and varun had blue ones, shows how liberated they are in terms of thoughts and how they perceive their existence, self made engrs/humans who have excelled their thought processes. Kudos to them. ❤❤
-
2:05 Upmanyu's face tells it all when he's called an Engineer 😂😂
-
Biswa is very intelligent yet humble!
-
Biswa here looking like a cool professor
-
I just got a panic attack when they were solving & discussing their test in the end. Reminded me of my mock tests :face-red-droopy-eyes:. Also I agree with Abhishek when he said he gets anxious on a specific months like March, April,May(Exam months). I've felt the same- at times still do.:face-orange-frowning:

I cried a little by the end of this episode. All four peeps here are the voices I needed to hear. All four of you are like the elder siblings who you admire, are affectionate towards and want to learn from. :) PS: Why does it feel like a closure?
