Out of the 1.5 million students who appear for the JEE exams, 1.4 million fail to score more than 10% marks. This indicates that the majority of the candidates are not academically prepared to pursue engineering, let alone secure admission to IITs
What a podcast. All I saw was Biswa’s passion and his immense love for engineering or rather any higher studies and the way he is trying to explain that this system or method IS wrong and needs to be corrected. All the points that he tried to explain were valid and so well articulated. At the same time, the arguments from Vipul were also very well made (But my personal opinion here sides with Biswa). This was much more of a high yield debate rather than a podcast and was so fun and interesting to watch. So much to take from this. Than you Amir sir for it!
Unknowingly, Amit has created a place for people to come back to this 5, 10, 20, 30 years in the future and just feel the joy of "friends talking about stuff, and laughing, and having a good time" - anticipating that this would be a rarity, even more rare than it is now - and someone in 2050 will be commenting something like "Listening to this in 2050..." It feels more like a discussion that my elder brothers/sisters would be having and I would be sitting nearby just listening them. Genuine, unscripted, so authentic in sharing their experiences - this is pure gold. The reason this concept (Chaar Yaar) feels so fresh and awesome is because of the participants in the discussion - these are comedians(mostly) and more importantly "friends", who are habitual of commenting on topics in a very unfiltered way - and the same "raw" nature is also reflected in their thoughts. For the person watching this in 2050 - this comment was added in 2024, within 24 hours of the video being published.
I think what Biswa meant around 19-23 minutes was that people who get into IITs are definitely talented but it doesn't necessarily mean that they will be good engineers and there are people who couldn't qualify JEE but could have been much better engineers had they gotten into the system of IITs, it is about person being good at exam but not actually interested in engineering vs people who were unlucky or maybe not that good at cracking the exam but are genuinely interested in engineering.
What Rohan says at 25:25, I can remember it from a decade ago, I froze while writing the exam for more than an hour, because the same thought crossed my mind, All of the year worth of time, money and health I've spent for one year needs to be condensed in these 3 hours, Obviously I didn't make it, But I know and can relate to that trauma many a kids go through at such an young age.
I really like this one specially. I have always loved biswa's intensity on this topic, varun grover or Abhishek upmanyu would be crazy in this episode.
24:27 this is so trueeee. It doesn't matter if ek student ki life is point pe khatam nahi hui hai (an exam doesn't define your life) but he will think it has. Because that's all he can see in front of his eyes at that moment.
Amit Sir please release an uncut version of this. The first 35 minutes were pure gold in terms of relatability and I have been through this grind 14 years back still could get flashes of my time. Sadly there were many edits during this. Rohan - Zero-sum game 🤯🤯 Biswa - disconnect between entrance - engg syllabus - practical world is so vast that its the primary reason for Unemployable engineers (no offence meant by using the term) 👍👍 Vipul sir - I'm IIT Bombay. Hold my glass 😜
Biswa is talking about how life is quite beautiful and studying life and science is a very enjoyable and important pursuit, which IITs and the system has failed to deliver. While the other 3 are more interested in the social structure of how higher education and money making is unrelated. Being a 3/4 engineer, i resonate with Biswa, that I am a sincere student of life and by proxy that of sciences, but despite the widespread fever of engineering and IITs, whatever i was taught in my college or in IITs as well, was still just a school with a degree attached to it with added advantage of extra curricular activities which was more to do with the caliber of students than anything else.
ya man its sad how they are not able to comprehend it, especially vipul just seems too proud of the IIT tag and wants to defend it. but he is also just a victim of our educational culture.
Did engg from a 3rd tier college, working with best of minds from across the world including IITians etc. One doesn't need to die for an IIT, at least not now.
Amit sir, I am currently preparing for JEE, and I am literally crying after this podcast. Thank you for bringing this episode. It gave a lot of confidence. Thanks to Vipul, Biswa and Rohan sir too🥹🥹🩵
Biswa just spoke on behalf of all us failures..We don't need more IITs or difficult exams but good faculties and opportunities in all existing institutions
I am huge fan of Vipul, but he did sounded a lil tone deaf here. The whole culture of making it to the IIT has been so overplayed which is a mistake of society , not the exam or students. He felt that Biswa was blaming the IIT and its students. Also a very good point he made was brilliance doesn't mean productivity. Especially when you have made the entrance to the real world an achievement already. I have met many IITians who are so hard to work with, because they think they are special.
Professors and Teachers being good is such an important factor. India mein people get a job and they do it like that. Just for the sake of it, we really don't look at an individual idea of teaching or explaining things. A teacher holds a lot of importance in a Stduents life.
This was a great conversation from delhi did engineering from Maharashtra. The best thing about college was batchmates from Kashmir to kanya kumari and Assam to Ahmedabad …. Also the nightmares are so true … I get from m1 , M2 …. Loved it
Related most to “engineering was the only option because dad wanted it “.. we had idea what to do.. since didn’t get through the iit and others went to PVT college in Maharashtra…
That opening story by rohan is so relatable. And it's a problem with SSC board back in the day. In Bombay the kids whose parents chose the SSC board for them really screwed then over. The difference in science and maths from 10th to 11th is just very vast. Things just take off to a different level.
Biswa whole point is - " Have more seats, Give best education chance to everyone and have that many seats and judge people at the end of 1st and 2nd year in that particular stream of education. Give a chance to kinds to change at any point of time. Like a guy who joins Engineering, finds out that he is not interested in Engineering. He/She should be allowed to pursue any other stream.
@@therahulnagor2567 Oh. Germany has that system. They don't assign any kid to something like this. Just check that. As for my knowledge, Germany is still on this earth and it's real toom
@@therahulnagor2567 that is somewhat true but his point was that some people are good in things which is not only iq . like in US the ivy league universities don't have entrance exams they take into account all soft skills , sports etc. so a guy who has achieved something in sports and want to pursue study from a top institute would not have to sacrifice something. while here the sportsperson would have to sacrifice all things after 10 to pursue their studies. also the difference in USA or any other western country between institutes is not that stark . trust me in even top nits the infra , profs are not even master of their respective subject
loved the panel in the first episode and loved it again now, biswa brother your passion and thinking with great finance and management can really do wonders which might be one of the best thing coming out from India(also rooting for your projects which you have been doing at presently), Amit sir thank you for these few hours of every week where a walk doesn't feels boring
Biswa is very intellectually sound and makes great point against this rat race system. I came to watch this podcast because of Rohan and Amit bhai. And became a bigger fan of Biswa. ❤
biswa har baar emotional arch le raha hai and baaki 3 are being practical 😂 biswa expression is like yai to problem itna practical itna result oriented etc etc thoda dil se intention se interest se kaam lo
@14:56 as a physics professor, I agree w BISWA. We're teaching things that are of no use to students we need big reforms in education system. Specially in college education. It's a waste of talent and waste of resources.
Sorry Amit Sir but I was watching this when it was premiering and i couldn't watch it in one go. After that serious discussion about IITs and JEE as a JEE aspirant myself who comes from a small town in MP(for context how small it is my family doesn't know what IIT & JEE is! Yes my family doesn't know that! My family just knows CBSE, state boards examinations and that it needs and entrance exam to get into colleges but they don't know what is JEE and IIT. For perspective they don't know what is the difference between IIT & ITI) I just have online videos as resources I just couldn't stop crying. In 10th CBSE I got around 93% but all I got from my family as a reward was just taunts like “Itne mein kya hota h? Uske dekho 96% bane h! Naam duba diya hamara!” I just couldn't handle anything. I was preparing for JEE from these online resources, mainly TH-cam, and according to me I was doing pretty decent job at that but after the result came and seeing my family's reaction everything went downhill from there. I just couldn't get myself to study without recalling those words and my results kept getting worse so much so that when in my 11th I got 80% in school exams they said “10th me 93 to tukke me ban gye the tum to kisi layak nhi ho bas paisa duba rhe ho hamara” Even till that point I was holding on to the hope that they are pushing me to do better only the method is harsh and I should try more harder but then my father said something that broke me. He said, “In marks ke sath to Tera naam school ke result bale poster pe bhi nhi ayega to fir Tera fayda kya hamare ghar me paida hoke!” Everything inside me died that day. I am not able to study seriously. I just do it because I want to pass or just because I found a topic interesting. But even though there is not more than 1 month remaining in exams my syllabus is not even close to completion and I just can't bring myself to complete it. When Biswa and Vipul Sir started talking about the IIT system my tears broke out. I needed to get up and stop watching the video because otherwise I wouldn't able to handle myself. Lastly when Biswa said that just do and be a normal person it's fine. I again cried my heart out because I never wanted to compete for JEE or anything like that I just wanted to live a normal life but the academic trauma has build so much inside of me that I no more can't do it. Random suicidal thoughts come to mind anytime. Once I tried to talk this out with my family and they just ignored me and scolded me more like I was doing a crime. They have stopped trusting me with anything now, not just academics but in real life too. They just consider me some sort of rebel who wants to do everything that they don't. Even though Biswa’s last words put an ointment to my wounds but I just don't know what to do and how life is going to end up for me especially with my family being like this. I scroll on internet to watch some comedic videos and engage in some conversations online to relief myself from this reality and live in a virtual world but even in that bubble I am not able to laugh freely thinking what will happen once this ends? Much like Rohan’s thoughts when he dropped out of college...... I just don't know anything at this point now......
Dear Yuvraj, I don’t know your particular situation but here’s my take on it. Even though it’s a TH-cam comment your English is very good. (I would have said the same if your comment was in proper Hindi. ) This tells me you have a very organized mind. I am much older than you so my life experience has taught me that you mostly live life for yourself, others are a small part of it. So not being able to concentrate or study because someone said something should not be an excuse. Study to make yourself better not to show to someone how wrong they were or how good you can be. Suicidal thoughts: You get birth in the human form with great luck/karma so don’t waste it. Listen to what Biswa said, whatever you do, in life do it well. Normally I would say listen to your parents as they want the best for you, but if they discourage you, do the best you can for yourself, to improve your life, be a better version of yourself. Try to find what you like or are good at and work hard towards it. Failure is never final until you give up. If you keep trying it is not failure. (Picture abhi baaki hai mere dost).
Yuvraj, I have been through the same in my teens and it was my family, neighborhood and teachers. I am 49 now, and I can tell from my experience that whatever you are going through now is going to pass and you will find something to do. My father still judges me sometimes with harsh words but now the effects have lessened. Your parents think that is only way to get you on track because that is what their parents were to them, they do not know any other way or even understand that they are doing more harm than good. So, you have to take care of your own, read books and focus. Don't let negative thinking overpower the power of your soul your will. Read fiction, clear your mind, remember you are you and you are the elephant in the room. Haathi chale bazzar to kutte bhaunke hazzaar. The focus must be on your exam and not in the result. Gita says, Karm karo, phal ki chinta mat karo. Do your work, if you truly immerse yourself in the pursuit of knowledge then knowledge will come to you. But if your focal point is results and whatever is being said to you, then you will get distracted and you will deviate from the path of learning. Young man, I sincerely hope and pray to God that you get your inner positivity and the thirst for knowledge back and hope that you become a better student and professional in future. No matter what our parents want, the Universe always shows us the right path.
To Biswa's point of social contribution i want to add my point on the popular notion of selecting jobs depending on passion. The attitude of many creative people of demeaning 9 to 5 job, calling it as boring and ridiculing people who does that. Man boring desk jobs are extremely essential to run our society.
As someone who cracked IIT and did not have to go through the trauma of coaching etc, it is just a competition. Clear the competition and move on. Life will keep throwing a new challenge every day. Each challenge is a competition. IIT teaches you how to compete and how to win. I agree with Biswa that the professors at IIT are not skilled enough to teach and guide brilliant students who qualified after gruelling exam to come and study there. Some of the professors were brilliant but they were very few.
Usually, I don't really comment much often but man, What an episode, it's like I'm seeing the disoriented similarities and dilemmas that I've suffered weren't really just mine but else's story as well, quite positively charged after the ending.
Basically summing up the Entire conversation
Vipul- Life is not a bed of roses
Biswa- Just a Bed is enough
Very well put...
+ "everyone at least should get a bed tho 🤝"
As usual, Biswa's wise insights are spot on. How have we accepted that there are 5-10 good colleges for a billion students?!
Sukanya, ye billion number kaha se laaya? 😂 There are only around 1.5 M students appearing for JEE every year
Out of the 1.5 million students who appear for the JEE exams, 1.4 million fail to score more than 10% marks. This indicates that the majority of the candidates are not academically prepared to pursue engineering, let alone secure admission to IITs
Biswa at 19:40. Golden words. It doesn't matter how awesome you are, what matters is what have you contributed to the society with your awesomeness
Here for Biswa. Loved his point of view, since went through the same. Biswas humour is hilarious
Can listen to him talk about anything
Biswa's take on the IIT exam is spot on, I have never thought that way. Kudos to Aye Tatti tera naam kya hai 😂
Weed epiphanies
This quora question will never leave him, will it ?😆
What a podcast.
All I saw was Biswa’s passion and his immense love for engineering or rather any higher studies and the way he is trying to explain that this system or method IS wrong and needs to be corrected. All the points that he tried to explain were valid and so well articulated. At the same time, the arguments from Vipul were also very well made (But my personal opinion here sides with Biswa).

What an episode..... Awesome..... Yeh hota hai Chaar Yaar...Dimag ki batti jalaa di. ❤
Biswa saving the cost of several therapy sessions. ❤
Keep doing what you are doing nicely, everybody. Everything is fine.
I really like this one specially. I have always loved biswa's intensity on this topic, varun grover or Abhishek upmanyu would be crazy in this episode.
A podcast with this panel on the same topic already exists on Varun Grover's channel

this is the best episode till date. hilarious, thought provoking and ridiculous IN ONE GO
Biswa's monologue on IIT entrance exam was brilliant.
Amazing panel
Insightful and hilarious anecdotes
Rohan's dropout story was amazing
I totally agree with whatever Biswa said. I think we both had similar college life, similar point of view.
Thanks for bringing White Hat Jr and Byjus on it's knees
Amit Sir please release an uncut version of this. The first 35 minutes were pure gold in terms of relatability and I have been through this grind 14 years back still could get flashes of my time. Sadly there were many edits during this.
Rohan - Zero-sum game 🤯🤯
Biswa - disconnect between entrance - engg syllabus - practical world is so vast that its the primary reason for Unemployable engineers (no offence meant by using the term) 👍👍
Vipul sir - I'm IIT Bombay. Hold my glass 😜
Friendly debate between Biswa and Vipul is a must.... especially based on students issues🤞🏻....love the podcast guys ❤
Biswa is still pissed off at that negligence. 😅 Also, so passionate too. Appreciate the panel. One of the mazedaar panels of this season.
Clicked as a Vipul fan commenting as a biswa fan❤ wise words by biswa and very true for me as a failed upsc aspirant
1:18:51
Biswa: how much are we getting paid for this?
Amit Ji: negligible
Really loved this panel in episode 1 and hoped for more. Looks like my wish has been granted 🤩
Same but ismein inhone serious discussion kar lia
Glad you liked it! 😊
Thanks for talking on competitive exam because i am also studying in kota ,it is very competitive atmosphere here

Part 2 needed . Awsm enjoyed guys.. still listening 3:30 am from Australia. Le aap yar .. it was so refreshing
Did engg from a 3rd tier college, working with best of minds from across the world including IITians etc. One doesn't need to die for an IIT, at least not now.
Amit sir, I am currently preparing for JEE, and I am literally crying after this podcast. Thank you for bringing this episode. It gave a lot of confidence. Thanks to Vipul, Biswa and Rohan sir too🥹🥹🩵
Don't cry bro, keep some of it for results also
@rushikeshs.2023 🤣🤣🤣😅😅. Yes bro whatever the result is gonna be, tears are permanent 😅😅
All the best..I wish things get in your favour
Biswa's rationale is unparalleled....❤️❤️
Biswa spitting facts whole podcast
Thanks man ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Amit Tandon is bringing bangers every week❤❤❤ again waitin....
Biswa thoughts are point on , can hear him on any topic and rest assured he will do justice 😊
Miss him on podcasts these days
Biswa just spoke on behalf of all us failures..We don't need more IITs or difficult exams but good faculties and opportunities in all existing institutions
that's trash self talk, the very point biswa was making is about the system failing you and not the other way around
The pacing of this episode was so good. Biswa and Vipul going back and forth was the chef's kiss.
18:20 amazing point. I've always felt and seen this highlighted around me and I agree wholeheartedly. People ignore soft skills like anything here
Can keep listening to Biswa, he has such different ideas
I am huge fan of Vipul, but he did sounded a lil tone deaf here. The whole culture of making it to the IIT has been so overplayed which is a mistake of society , not the exam or students. He felt that Biswa was blaming the IIT and its students.
Also a very good point he made was brilliance doesn't mean productivity. Especially when you have made the entrance to the real world an achievement already. I have met many IITians who are so hard to work with, because they think they are special.

Biswa is so on point in this whole conversation. ❤ Totally agree that the test is tough but thats now how you change society and make good engineers.
oh man biswa and vipul said the truest story of engineering kudos to them , really enjoyed it
Best podcast of engineers the way you shared it seems that our 4 years trauma has been addressed ❤
Each one has such a different but amazing personality . Rohan is naturally witty every time
Ooh , this was such a good episode.We made lives difficult for ourselves.
This was a great conversation from delhi did engineering from Maharashtra. The best thing about college was batchmates from Kashmir to kanya kumari and Assam to Ahmedabad …. Also the nightmares are so true … I get from m1 , M2 …. Loved it
Related most to “engineering was the only option because dad wanted it “.. we had idea what to do.. since didn’t get through the iit and others went to PVT college in Maharashtra…

I love the way Biswa thinks , and i can hear him speak for hours.
Biswa truly has a deeper and real insight into the topic.. loved his perspective
I had the same drop out experience as Rohan and i did the same thing he did. Go to college gate, not go in, and spend the next 6-7 hours at Juhu.
BISWA ka point true hone wala hai kuch saal mai. Bohot saturation ho rha iit, medical college ka. Its not as prestigious now as vipul thinks
A prof at an IIM said this to me once which roughly translates to what Biswa said. The world needs kindness more than it needs intelligence
Biswa's point is just ❤
What a fantastic discussion . . . Love from a regular audience from Peshawar Pakistan
i can listen to Rohan Joshi all day!
Same…he has such a great vocab and really insightful things to say
He's my soulmate
In the first twenty mins of the podcast this is hitting home already! Amazing conversation!
One of the best podcasts ever.❤
The best episode so far in the series!
19:49 Brilliant thought Biswa just Brilliant 😂
Biswa - hats off to the maturity of your thoughts!! Amazing!
Biswa is so wise. ❤
Biswa is very intellectually sound and makes great point against this rat race system. I came to watch this podcast because of Rohan and Amit bhai. And became a bigger fan of Biswa. ❤
lovely podcast, Amit Tandon please keep the episodes coming!! look forward to every episode, so fun and wholesome
Thank you 🙏
As a parent , I am so thankful for this podcast
Please also have another podcast on another aspect of life. Amazing podcast with different points of view and sharing past experiences 👍.
biswa har baar emotional arch le raha hai and baaki 3 are being practical 😂 biswa expression is like yai to problem itna practical itna result oriented etc etc thoda dil se intention se interest se kaam lo
Best podcast in this series till date🙌 Biswa and Vipul stole the show ❤
@14:56 as a physics professor, I agree w BISWA. We're teaching things that are of no use to students we need big reforms in education system. Specially in college education. It's a waste of talent and waste of resources.
Biswa alag hi level ki baat karta hai bhai
World is run on coal not diamonds ❤
Loved the episode... Conversation was interesting
Loved it! Everyone's perspective! ❤️
THE best episode hitherto!! Biswa stole the show !!
This was the peak chaar yaar episode. Best one yet.
Biswa ne bilkul sahi grasp kiya hai 👏
vai ye biswa ko kya ho gaya aaj?? whatever it is, i wish i could see this biswa more 🤣🤣
So relatable, I also cracked IIT but with a lower rank so went to NIT and its not as respected as IITs though I am working at same level as IITians
Biswa hits bulls eye here 34:25
Thank you for this gem of an episode.
Sorry Amit Sir but I was watching this when it was premiering and i couldn't watch it in one go.

But even though there is not more than 1 month remaining in exams my syllabus is not even close to completion and I just can't bring myself to complete it.
When Biswa and Vipul Sir started talking about the IIT system my tears broke out. I needed to get up and stop watching the video because otherwise I wouldn't able to handle myself.
Lastly when Biswa said that just do and be a normal person it's fine. I again cried my heart out because I never wanted to compete for JEE or anything like that I just wanted to live a normal life but the academic trauma has build so much inside of me that I no more can't do it. Random suicidal thoughts come to mind anytime. Once I tried to talk this out with my family and they just ignored me and scolded me more like I was doing a crime. They have stopped trusting me with anything now, not just academics but in real life too. They just consider me some sort of rebel who wants to do everything that they don't.
Even though Biswa’s last words put an ointment to my wounds but I just don't know what to do and how life is going to end up for me especially with my family being like this. I scroll on internet to watch some comedic videos and engage in some conversations online to relief myself from this reality and live in a virtual world but even in that bubble I am not able to laugh freely thinking what will happen once this ends? Much like Rohan’s thoughts when he dropped out of college...... I just don't know anything at this point now......
Dear Yuvraj, I don’t know your particular situation but here’s my take on it.
Even though it’s a TH-cam comment your English is very good. (I would have said the same if your comment was in proper Hindi. ) This tells me you have a very organized mind. I am much older than you so my life experience has taught me that you mostly live life for yourself, others are a small part of it. So not being able to concentrate or study because someone said something should not be an excuse. Study to make yourself better not to show to someone how wrong they were or how good you can be.
Suicidal thoughts: You get birth in the human form with great luck/karma so don’t waste it. Listen to what Biswa said, whatever you do, in life do it well.
Normally I would say listen to your parents as they want the best for you, but if they discourage you, do the best you can for yourself, to improve your life, be a better version of yourself. Try to find what you like or are good at and work hard towards it.
Failure is never final until you give up. If you keep trying it is not failure. (Picture abhi baaki hai mere dost).
@@amiteshmodi4867 Bro your parents has raised a king 👑.these words definitely boost his morals 😊
Yuvraj, I have been through the same in my teens and it was my family, neighborhood and teachers. I am 49 now, and I can tell from my experience that whatever you are going through now is going to pass and you will find something to do. My father still judges me sometimes with harsh words but now the effects have lessened. Your parents think that is only way to get you on track because that is what their parents were to them, they do not know any other way or even understand that they are doing more harm than good. So, you have to take care of your own, read books and focus. Don't let negative thinking overpower the power of your soul your will. Read fiction, clear your mind, remember you are you and you are the elephant in the room. Haathi chale bazzar to kutte bhaunke hazzaar. The focus must be on your exam and not in the result. Gita says, Karm karo, phal ki chinta mat karo. Do your work, if you truly immerse yourself in the pursuit of knowledge then knowledge will come to you. But if your focal point is results and whatever is being said to you, then you will get distracted and you will deviate from the path of learning. Young man, I sincerely hope and pray to God that you get your inner positivity and the thirst for knowledge back and hope that you become a better student and professional in future. No matter what our parents want, the Universe always shows us the right path.
This is pure cinema ❤
Great episode from this series
Best podcast 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Biswa is trying to explain a great concept but it’s beyond Vipul comprehension. Great example of true IIT material vs rattu tota that just got in
Cry more. Getting into IIT-B is not a cup of tea.
Exactly
@@abdullahsaif4477 Coz vipul is too proud of himself
dude not everyone is expert in every field so stop comparing them.
100%. Bisva was brilliant!
The lack of soft skills ( among engineers ) discussion is right on money !
To Biswa's point of social contribution i want to add my point on the popular notion of selecting jobs depending on passion. The attitude of many creative people of demeaning 9 to 5 job, calling it as boring and ridiculing people who does that. Man boring desk jobs are extremely essential to run our society.
Amazing watch! All episodes! ❤ please move to collar mikes….
loved this combo, want more of you og guys together in future for sure!
As someone who cracked IIT and did not have to go through the trauma of coaching etc, it is just a competition. Clear the competition and move on. Life will keep throwing a new challenge every day. Each challenge is a competition. IIT teaches you how to compete and how to win.
I agree with Biswa that the professors at IIT are not skilled enough to teach and guide brilliant students who qualified after gruelling exam to come and study there. Some of the professors were brilliant but they were very few.
This was hilarious 😂😂😂😂 never thought podcast on IIT will be so damn funny 🤣
Great conversation enjoyed until the end. Made my day honestly though
IIt Roorkee 2019 batch. 14:54 totally agree.
24:48 How about paper thoda moderate ho but uske baad ek interview round ho.
Usually, I don't really comment much often but man, What an episode, it's like I'm seeing the disoriented similarities and dilemmas that I've suffered weren't really just mine but else's story as well, quite positively charged after the ending.
Amazing conversation, Biswa is something else, ❤ from kerala
Haste time mic niche rakho amit ji
😂😂😂
Fun conversation, brought back fresh memories
Vipul is still holding onto beliefs which biswa is trying to challenge that's why vipul was disagreeing on everything.
Typical indian uncle thinking.
Awesome foursome! 👌
Should’ve been a few more hours!
