Kota Factory Web Series Season 3 Review: The issue of NEET and NET is currently dominating the country. The future of lakhs of students depends on these two exams and at present both exams are under question. Kota Factory is one of the most liked series of OTT. This series is produced by TVF. The first season of the series came in 2019 and now the third season has come after five years. In the show, Panchayat Secretary Jitender Kumar is seen in the role of Jatu Bhaiya.
Apart from him, Mayur More and Ahsaas Channa are also important characters. In this environment of alleged rigging in competitive examinations, the third season of Kota Factory has been released on Netflix, the story of which shows the lives of students preparing for entrance examinations and teachers working in coaching institutes. The events of the Kota Factory series connect lakhs of students preparing for competitive exams and this is the reason for the popularity of the previous seasons of this series.
The third season of Kota Factory focuses more on the personal stories of its main characters rather than the infighting among coaching institutes. Jitendra Kumar, who played the role of Secretary Ji in Panchayat, has returned to the role of Jeetu Bhaiya. Jitendra got the nickname of Jeetu Bhaiya from this series, who is a physics teacher. The third season of Kota Factory takes forward the legacy of the previous two seasons and keeps the audience engaged.
What is the story of the third season?
The story of the third season begins from where the second season ended. Jeetu Bhaiya has not recovered from his student's suicide. This guilt has had a deep impact on him mentally and he is taking the help of a psychiatrist. His three favorite students Vaibhav, Meena, and Uday are busy preparing for their exams. Apart from the aim of passing JEE and NEET exams, they also have their own challenges.
Meena's family's financial condition is not good. She starts teaching tuition. Seeing Vaibhav's mood change, Vartika is looking for a new study partner. Shivangi is under pressure to prepare for NEET. How all of them face their respective problems is woven into the story. The third season is divided into five episodes.
How is the screenplay and acting of the show?
There are four episodes of 42 to 48 minutes, while the duration of the fifth episode is about an hour. After Panchayat Season 3 and Gullak Season 4, TVF's series Kota Factory has come in less than a month. The series, which is aimed at middle-class students studying in coaching classes, hits where it matters.
Kota Factory is such a series where there are many possibilities to take the story forward. Coaching institutes becoming factories of competitive exams, shameless competition to get ahead of each other, students losing the battle of life under family and social pressure, all such topics seem to be seen and heard.
New colors are seen in the character of Jeetu Bhaiya
In the third season, the character of Jeetu Bhaiya seems to be divided into two parts. On one hand, he is struggling with his past, on the other hand, he also has some responsibilities towards the students, which he is trying to fulfill. Jitendra Kumar has presented this transformation very simply. Compared to the first and second seasons, the change in the character graph is clearly felt in the third season.
Kota Factory's specialty is its star cast, which looks perfect in their respective characters. Mayur More in the role of Vaibhav Pandey, Ranjan Raj in the role of Balmukund Meena, Alam Khan in the role of Uday Gupta, Ehsaas Channa in the role of Shivangi Ranawat, Ehsaas Channa in the role of Meena, Revathi Pillai in the role of Vartika and Urvi Singh in the role of Meenal have lived their characters successfully.
The entry of Tilottama Shom in the role of an ad hoc chemistry teacher in Jeetu Bhaiya's coaching MERS is the highlight this time. An attempt has also been made to blur the image of Kota as an education factory through this character.
The writing of Puneet Batra, Praveen Yadav, Nikita Lalwani, and Manish Chandwani is a departure from the old seasons. Director Pratish Mehta has been trying to extract appropriate expressions from the actors. The series being shown in black and white combines old memories, which are equally timely and emotional even in the present.
