It's a sitcom web series that can best be described as an Indian Abbott Elementary.
I just finished the first episode and really enjoyed it.
Definitely continuing the watch! pic.twitter.com/D2tlnbyQXh

Story And Humour Strike The Right Balance
The series is based in a fictional location called Tinki Toli, in Delhi, in a failing government school called Adarsh Baal Vidyalaya, where crumbling infrastructure, indifferent students, and political interference have become the norm.
At the centre of the story is principal Gyaneshwar Tripathi, played by Kay Kay Menon, whose laid-back attitude changes after the education department announces that the top-performing schools in the Class 10 board examinations will receive an all-expenses-paid training programme at Cambridge University. Viewers have praised the show's ability to combine comedy with an emotional storyline while addressing real-world concerns.
Kay Kay Menon And Ensemble Cast Receive Praise
Much of the appreciation online has been directed at Kay Kay Menon's performance as the good-natured principal. Fans have welcomed seeing the actor in a lighter role, calling his comic timing and effortless screen presence one of the series' biggest strengths.
Archana Puran Singh has also earned praise for her performance as the scheming Urmila Devi, while Prasanna Bisht, Naveen Kasturia, Abhimanyu Singh, Annapurna Soni, Prachee Shah, and Deven Bhojani have been widely appreciated for bringing authenticity and humour to their respective characters.
